refined residential areas — near the Fortezza da
Basso and the tree-lined boulevards — stands

sqm, complemented by a private 150 sqm
garden: a rare luxury to find this close to the

Just a short walk from the historic centre of
Florence, in one of the city’s quietest and most
refined residential areas — near the Fortezza da
Basso and the tree-lined boulevards — stands
this beautiful period villa of approximately 420
sqm, complemented by a private 150 sqm
garden: a rare luxury to find this close to the
heart of Florence.
The location
Via 24 Maggio sits within a peaceful, elegant
residential district historically defined by Liberty-
style villas surrounded by greenery. The location
offers the best of both worlds: the calm of a
quiet, low-traffic street, combined with easy
walking access to Florence’s historic centre,
Santa Maria Novella station, and all essential
services, schools and shops. A prestigious
address for those who want a genuine quality of
life without giving up the vibrancy of city living.
The villa
Built in the early 1900s, the villa is arranged over
four levels: a garden-level basement floor, a
street-level ground floor, a first floor, and an attic.
Two independent entrances serve the property:
one from the garden, through an electric gate
with video intercom, leading either to the
basement floor or — via an external staircase —
to a balcony giving access to the first floor; the
other from the street, on the ground floor,
through the main entrance.
The property is in excellent condition: the roof,
façades, interiors, and electrical and plumbing
systems were fully renovated in 2003, while the
private 27 sqm covered garage was refurbished
in 2017.
A flexible property: single-family villa or two
independent units
Thanks to its two separate entrances, the villa
lends itself to a range of living arrangements. It
can be enjoyed as one spacious single-family
home, or divided into two independent units: the
basement floor, with its own access from the
garden, and the upper floors — ground floor, first
floor and attic — reached via the street entrance.
This configuration is ideal for extended or
multigenerational families, and equally suited to
an investment strategy: the basement unit has in
fact previously been rented out, both as a short-
term tourist let and as a longer-term transitional
rental, providing a genuine source of
complementary income for those living in the
upper floors. A rare kind of versatility, making the
property equally appealing to those seeking a
family home and to those looking to combine
residence with investment.
Interior spaces
The villa comprises 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, 2
kitchens and 3 additional versatile rooms,
offering a layout ideally suited to both family
living and hosting guests. The attic, with an
average ceiling height of 2.40 m, is a bright,
open-plan space complete with its own
bathroom and storage room. Air conditioning is
fitted in both the basement and the attic.
The details that make the difference
The finishes and furnishings, crafted by skilled
cabinetmakers rather than mass-produced, give
the home genuine character and refinement.
Natural light fills every room. The staircase area
includes space reserved for a future lift
installation, and a small service dumbwaiter is
already in place for moving items between floors.
For added security, wrought-iron grilles protect
the windows of the basement and ground floor.
The true highlight, however, is the private 150
sqm garden: a genuinely rare green oasis for a
property so centrally located in Florence, perfect
for enjoying outdoor living year-round, for
entertaining, or simply for having a private slice
of nature in the city.
A rare opportunity for those seeking a home full
of character — historic yet fully liveable — in one
of Florence’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.
A pochi minuti a piedi dal centro storico di
Firenze, in una delle zone più quiete, verdi e
signorili della città — nei pressi della Fortezza da
Basso e dei viali di circonvallazione — sorge
questa splendida villa d’epoca di circa 420 mq
commerciali, impreziosita da un giardino privato
di 150 mq: un lusso sempre più raro da trovare a
due passi dal cuore di Firenze.
La zona
Via 24 Maggio si trova in un contesto
residenziale silenzioso ed elegante, storicamente
caratterizzato da ville e villini d’epoca liberty
immersi nel verde. La posizione garantisce il
meglio di due mondi: la tranquillità di una strada
riservata e poco trafficata, e al contempo la
vicinanza a piedi al centro storico, a Santa Maria
Novella, ai principali servizi, scuole ed esercizi
commerciali. Un indirizzo prestigioso, ambito da
chi cerca qualità della vita senza rinunciare alla
vita di città.
La villa
Costruita agli inizi del ’900, la villa si sviluppa su
quattro livelli: un piano seminterrato a giardino,
un piano terra su strada, un primo piano e una
mansarda. Sono presenti due ingressi
indipendenti: uno dal giardino, tramite cancello
elettrico con videocitofono, che conduce al piano
seminterrato oppure — tramite una scala esterna
— a un balcone di accesso al primo piano; l’altro
dalla strada, al piano terra, attraverso l’ingresso
principale.
L’immobile è in ottimo stato di manutenzione:
tetto, facciate, interni e impianti elettrico e
idraulico sono stati completamente rinnovati nel
2003, mentre il garage privato coperto di 27 mq è
stato oggetto di lavori nel 2017.
Un immobile flessibile: villa unifamiliare o due
unità indipendenti
Grazie ai due ingressi autonomi, la villa si presta
a molteplici soluzioni abitative. Può essere
vissuta come un’unica, ampia residenza
unifamiliare, oppure suddivisa in due unità
indipendenti: il piano seminterrato, con accesso
separato dal giardino, e i piani superiori — piano
terra, primo piano e mansarda — raggiungibili
dall’ingresso su strada. Una configurazione
ideale per nuclei familiari allargati o
multigenerazionali, ma che si presta altrettanto
bene a una logica di investimento: il piano
seminterrato, infatti, è già stato locato in
passato, sia a fini turistici sia come soluzione
abitativa transitoria, offrendo così una concreta
fonte di reddito complementare a chi sceglie di
abitare i piani superiori. Una versatilità rara, che
rende l’immobile adatto sia a chi cerca una casa
di famiglia sia a chi desidera coniugare
residenza e investimento.
Gli spazi interni
La villa dispone di 6 camere da letto, 5 bagni, 2
cucine e 3 ulteriori ambienti versatili, per una
distribuzione degli spazi ideale sia per la vita
familiare sia per l’ospitalità. La mansarda, con
altezza media di 2,40 m, si presenta come un
ampio open space luminoso, dotato di bagno e
ripostiglio proprio. Aria condizionata presente sia
al piano seminterrato sia in mansarda.
I dettagli che fanno la differenza
Le finiture e l’arredamento, di alta falegnameria
artigianale (non industriale), conferiscono
all’immobile un’anima autentica e di pregio. La
casa gode di ottima luminosità naturale in ogni
ambiente. Nel vano scala è disponibile lo spazio
per l’eventuale installazione di un ascensore, ed è
già presente un piccolo montacarichi di servizio
per lo spostamento di oggetti tra i piani. A
completare la sicurezza, inferriate proteggono le
finestre del piano seminterrato e del piano terra.
Il vero valore aggiunto, tuttavia, resta il giardino
privato di 150 mq: un’oasi verde praticamente
unica per un immobile così centrale a Firenze,
perfetta per vivere gli spazi esterni tutto l’anno,
per l’intrattenimento o semplicemente per godere
di un angolo di natura privata in città.
Un’occasione rara per chi cerca una dimora di
carattere, storica ma perfettamente funzionale, in
una delle località più ambite di Firenze.
