Enchanting Farmhouse With Restored Barn In The Tuscan Hills

ATMOSPHERE by Fiesoli Homes: ”The Charm of Color”

THE PROPERTY
Perched dominantly on the hills of Cerreto Guidi, this property blends Tuscan tradition with refined architectural details. The main farmhouse, 270 square meters, maintains the authentic character of country homes, while the restored barn of 140 square meters offers additional spaces for relaxation and socializing. An unfinished 130-square-meter unit, part of the farmhouse, completes the property, providing further customization possibilities. The entire estate spans 34,000 square meters of land, including a park, woodland, and olive grove.

INTERIOR DETAILS
Crossing the threshold of the main farmhouse, you are welcomed by a warm and elegant atmosphere. The ground floor features a large entrance hall leading to a bright double room, where a stone fireplace becomes the heart of the social spaces. The eat-in kitchen, enriched by an ancient wood-burning oven, retains the authentic charm of Tuscan country houses, complemented by a laundry room and a bathroom.
On the first floor, time seems to slow. A refined living room with an 18th-century fireplace leads to the sleeping area, consisting of three double bedrooms, each with its own character. The master suite, with a walk-in closet and private bathroom, offers comfort and privacy. The other rooms, with exposed wooden beams and antique terracotta details, evoke traditional charm.
The barn, an independent structure with great personality, spans two levels. The ground floor hosts an open-plan living area, where light dances through small wall openings, creating evocative atmospheres. The space combines a living room, dining area, kitchenette, and bathroom, balancing functionality and charm. Upstairs, two bedrooms and a bathroom provide cozy, intimate spaces, with every detail designed to enhance the beauty of the environment.
The unfinished unit, an integral part of the farmhouse, offers a unique opportunity for customization. With 130 square meters, it can become an independent residence with a private garden and separate access, ideal for guests, tourist rentals, or a refined outbuilding immersed in nature.

EXTERIOR DETAILS
Outside, nature takes center stage. The 34,000 square meters of land reveal a secret garden among centuries-old olive trees, shady woods, and meadows that fade into the horizon. The barn overlooks a circular terrace, perfect for dinners under the stars and convivial moments in tranquility. Relaxing corners alternate with carefully designed green spaces, fostering a continuous dialogue with the landscape.

POSITION
Cerreto Guidi is a small Tuscan jewel, a village with authentic charm, famous for its Villa Medicea, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Its hills, dotted with vineyards and olive groves, preserve a territory rich in history and tradition. The location is strategic: Florence is 40 km away, while Pisa and Lucca are less than an hour away. A place where time seems to pass more slowly, offering the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility.

WHEN COLOUR GIVES WARMTH
”What makes this property special is its ability to evoke sensations through color and light. The warm tone of the facades, the amber shades reflected on the terracotta floors, the light filtering through the windows creating shadows and reflections: everything contributes to creating an enveloping and vibrant atmosphere. Each space is designed to be experienced intensely, between the warmth of the stone and the sweetness of the Tuscan landscape. Here, every detail tells a story, and every corner invites you to imagine a new life.”
