ATMOSPHERE by Fiesoli Homes: “Tuscan Breath”
Set on the rolling hills northeast of Florence, Tuscan Breath is a timeless country residence that embodies the true essence of Tuscany.
The main villa, about 350 sqm, dates probabile back to the 17th century and still features its original tower-dovecote — once a lookout point, now a distinctive architectural signature.
Currently divided into two independent units, the villa can be easily reconnected into a single elegant home. The first unit opens with a large traditional kitchen and fireplace, followed by spacious living areas, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an ample study and the tower-dovecote, now transformed into a panoramic room overlooking the valley. The second unit, on the ground floor, includes a welcoming living room, a dining area, a small kitchen with direct outdoor access, two bedrooms and a bathroom — ideal for guests or family. Both portions retain the warmth and authenticity of Tuscan architecture: terracotta floors, wooden beams, stone stairs and fireplaces that make every room feel timeless.
Next to the villa stands a rural building of around 170 sqm on two levels, formerly a barn, wine cellar and storage area, offering excellent potential for conversion into a guest house or creative studio. A small independent annex of about 26 sqm, facing the valley, completes the ensemble with charm and intimacy.
The property is surrounded by gentle countryside, with olive trees for private oil production and a small Chianti vineyard — a rare chance to craft one’s own wine in limited, authentic quantities. A panoramic swimming pool could be beautifully integrated into the landscape, overlooking the dramatic valley below.
With its commanding position, silence and sense of space, Tuscan Breath captures the rare luxury of authenticity — an elegant retreat suspended between sky and land, overlooking the heart of Tuscany.
Located in Pontassieve, Italy, this exquisite property offers a quintessential Tuscan lifestyle, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. Just 35 minutes from Florence’s historic center, it provides quick access to cultural landmarks and exclusive shopping. Nearby, you can indulge in gourmet dining or explore the scenic Chianti countryside. The area is well-connected, with Piazzale Michelangelo and Peretola Airport within a short drive.

Fiesoli Homes is a family-run reality dedicated to the art of choosing homes with care, time, and heart. Curated means more than selected — it means discovered through our own eyes, guided by a deep sense of place and beauty. Each property tells a story of Tuscan life: restored with respect, rooted in landscape, and imbued with the quiet charm of time. We don’t collect houses; we recognize atmospheres — those rare, authentic spaces that reflect our idea of living well, slowly, and beautifully in Italy.
