A remarkable property awaits you in the hills of Florence: this small 16th-century convent with Italian-style gardens has been restored to the highest standards and transformed into a country retreat. Today, more than 800 square metres of living space are spread across two levels. 

Set on a 4,000 sqm plot, the grounds include a well-maintained Renaissance garden and beautifully landscaped outdoor areas. A panoramic swimming pool with sun terrace, the scents of summer and sweeping views create an authentic Tuscan atmosphere that invites pure relaxation. 

Inside, the villa is tastefully decorated in a country-chic style with Provençal touches. The ground floor features a spacious living area with a historic stone fireplace, wooden floors and exposed beams. The bright and inviting dining room exudes rustic elegance, while the traditional kitchen, adorned with majolica tiles, opens onto a covered outdoor veranda. 

The former sacristy has been transformed into a cosy study. A library, wine cellar and guest WC complete the ground floor. Upstairs, the sleeping area includes generously sized suites and two bathrooms, both offering wide views over the garden and surrounding landscape.

Florence is within easy reach, and the property also includes a private woodland area and a garage.
