8 bedrooms villa, 1030 m² Fiesole, Florence (province) Chianti
Main Features
Description
The property is located in one of the most beautiful and suggestive panoramic positions on the Fiesole hillside, on the side facing Florence, in the San Domenico district, nestled in the concavity of the Affrico valley, bordering the Canadian School, the European University and the Music School of Fiesole, in an exclusive setting of great cultural and international prestige.
Surrounded by olive trees, fruit trees, lime trees and a long row of poplars that follows the natural border of the Affrico.
The area is protected both as a landscape and historical-environmental protection area of the Fiesole hill, and as territorial areas of the main water courses and crops of the mezzadrile landscape. Within the property, the main building is located in the highest part of the slope. Immersed in vegetation, it is perfectly integrated with the surrounding landscape, from which only part of the roofs are visible.
The construction almost naturally follows the slope of the property land which, from Via delle Fontanelle, gently extends into the Affrico valley. The property was restored in 1965, exploiting the volumes of an 18th-century building that had repeatedly changed its use over the years, going from a religious building to a rural building and again to a monastery. Of the original building, the cloister with the well and the small bell tower of the monastery are still intact today.
A careful design for environmental integration, with a style that recalls forms and volumes of Tuscan rural architecture, carried out by the architect Pier Niccolò Berardi, has made it one of the most beautiful villas on the Fiesole slope.
The style recalls, in the use of materials and forms, the architecture of the typical tradition of the mezzadrile landscape. The property, with a gross usable area of approximately 1,052 sq m, is spread over three floors, one of which is partially underground.
On the ground floor we find the living area with a large hall of approximately 114 sq m, two entrances, kitchen, cloakroom and four bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.
On the first floor, divided into two separate areas with exclusive access, there are two double bedrooms with large walk-in closets and bathrooms.
On the underground floor, with direct access from the garden, there is the caretaker's apartment with two bedrooms, bathroom, living room and kitchen. On the same floor are the service areas, including a laundry room, double cloakroom, garage and various storage rooms. At this level, free on three sides, there is the old loggia with a wood-burning oven, now closed by a large window and used as a study.
The property also includes a plot of land cultivated with olive trees of approximately 17,000 sq m, a synthetic grass tennis court, a small underground building used as a changing room and a greenhouse of approximately 55 sq m.
Recently, a building permit has been released for a swimming pool that can reach an area of approximately 100 sq m.
