14 bedrooms villa, 1000 m²

Castelfranco di Sotto, Pisa (province)

In the most authentic heart of the Tuscan countryside, just minutes from the main roads yet immersed in absolute tranquillity, lies a rare propertya private universe where time seems to slow and every detail speaks of care, solidity, and beauty. An elegant estate, fully enclosed, stretching over more than a hectare of natural parkland filled with noble trees, majestic holm oaks, linden trees, cypresses, and oaks that welcome visitors with a scenic embrace of greenery and light. Around it, a mature and productive olive grove, ancient trees, and an atmosphere that captures the very essence of Tuscany.
At the center of the property, the stone villa rises above the garden like an ancient family residence, with its generous volumes and luminous interiors. The main entrance opens into a grand living room that runs through the entire house, illuminated by large French doors that project outward, while a secondary entrance leads to a more private wing with two bedrooms and a bathroomperfect for hosting with discretion. The convivial and fully equipped kitchen opens onto a large furnished pergola, a natural extension of the indoor spaces during the warmer months. Upstairs, a welcoming mezzanine introduces the sleeping quarters, where three bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom, create a level devoted to comfort and absolute tranquillity.
A short distance away, the old lemon house evokes the charm of traditional Tuscan farm buildings reimagined for contemporary living. One section has been transformed into a delightful, warm, and functional apartment with two bedrooms, a living area, a loft, and facilities. The other half is a surprising social space: a large tavern complete with a wood-fired oven, marble countertops, and an atmosphere made for dinners, celebrations, and moments to share. From here, one reaches a wellness area with a Turkish bath, and descending further, a vast room of about two hundred square meters now used for systems, storage, and technical functionsyet offering extraordinary potential for additional development.
Facing the park, another villa completes the estate with its harmonious architecture and the refined elegance of its interiors. On the ground floor, between porticoes, study rooms, dining areas, and a living room of nearly eighty square meters dominated by an important pietra serena fireplace, every space seems designed to experience the home in a full and scenographic way. On the upper floors, bedrooms with private bathrooms and an attic with a study and laundry area give the villa a complete and sophisticated residential dimension. Beside it, with independent access, a spacious apartment provides further living spaceperfect for guests, staff, or an autonomous family unitcomplete with an additional attic with a bathroom and extra beds.
At the heart of the park, the two swimming pools add a unique charm to the property. The main pool, a basin of about fifteen by six meters, becomes at sunset a spectacle of light thanks to the nighttime illumination system that allows swimming under the stars. It can be covered automatically, ensuring safety for children and maintaining stable water temperature. In spring and autumn, an efficient heat exchanger keeps the water pleasantly warm, extending the bathing season and offering a rare comfort for country estates. The second pool, more intimate and sheltered, lies directly in front of the stone villa: a mirror of water that reflects its façade and creates a refined and peaceful atmosphere.
Between sheltered play areas, a five-a-side football field, a green-volley court, shaded paths, and outdoor living spaces, this estate offers a perfect balance of nature, architecture, privacy, and beauty. More than simply a home, it embodies a true lifestyleideal for a large family, a high-level hospitality project, or anyone dreaming of an authentic Tuscan retreat close to Florence, Lucca, and the coast.
