TUSCAN CASTLE FOR SALE WITH VIEWS OF THE HISTORICAL CENTER OF FLORENCE

The castle (1,465 m² – 15,763 ft², 8 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms), dating in its original form to the 12th century, is an imposing stone building on three floors plus the tower. The basement still houses the old cellars, as well as a wing of the building now converted into a garage. The ground floor, accessed from various points, is entirely given over to living areas with large reception rooms, kitchens and lounges. The second floor, on the other hand, is mostly dedicated by guest bedrooms and bathrooms. The building can be used either as a single residence or divided into independent apartments for rent.

The building is then completed by four outbuildings (630 m² – 6,778 ft², 10 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms), which are very suitable for hosting guests in a historically interesting and very quiet setting:

• Casa Dante (200 m² – 2,152 ft², 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms) is a trapezoidal-shaped building on two floors consisting of an entrance hall, living room with kitchen and pantry, three bedrooms and three bathrooms;
• Casa Beatrice (190 m² – 2,044 ft², 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) is a two-story farmhouse consisting of large living room, dining room, kitchen with pantry, checkroom, three bedrooms and two bathrooms;
• Casa Alighiero (90 m² – 968 ft², 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom) is a small one-story outbuilding consisting of living room with kitchen, bedroom and bathroom;
• The church (150 m² – 1,614 ft², 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms), now deconsecrated, has been converted into a charming guesthouse consisting of living area with kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The property has been expertly renovated preserving most of the original finishes but adding modern touches and refined elements that create a unique blend of historic and modern. The tower, accessible by elevator, is in need of complete renovation but could accommodate a beautiful panoramic room with private bathroom.

The castle is embellished by about 3,500 m² of gardens, placed around the various buildings and embellished with paved panoramic terraces overlooking the surrounding hills.

Most of the property is then covered by woodland (16.0 ha) that surround the castle on all sides, providing great privacy and shelter from any noise. Olive trees are distributed on about 6.2 ha while arable land covers the remaining part (2.7 ha).
