In the beautiful area of Poggio Imperiale we find this beautiful renovated property with swimming pool and private garden.
A large former convent houses this stately villa, dating back to the 15th century and covering an area of 600 square meters.
The house has evolved over the centuries from religious to residential function and, as a result, has been divided internally into several units.
In spite of the changes made, the restoration carried out made it possible to maintain most of the original features, including wonderful vaulted ceilings, stone fireplaces and frescoes restored where necessary just like those on the outdoor fountain, designed by architect Buontalenti.
The enchanting estate extends over three levels in about 460 square meters.
On the ground floor there is a large living area divided into three bright rooms, a spare bathroom and a laundry room. On the opposite side of the building are the stairwell, kitchen, pantry and dining room with direct access to the garden.
Descending the stairs leads to the villa's former cellars, which now house a private gymnasium, a guest room and an en-suite bathroom.
The masonry vaults make it possible to recognize the original use of the rooms as cellars and storerooms.
On the upper floor, reached by an internal staircase, are more elegant and exclusive bedrooms. The corridor leads to a bedroom with a private bathroom and a walk-in closet, as well as a living room with a fireplace.
From the living room, another hallway leads to the master bedroom, equipped with a large en-suite bathroom and a private walk-in closet. In addition, a staircase leads to the attic, which houses another bedroom, a bathroom and a walk-in closet.
The property is surrounded by a private garden of 2,500 square meters, which provides great privacy thanks to the surrounding wall. The garden houses a beautiful designer swimming pool and still retains Buontalenti's fountain, inspired by the nymphaeums of Roman times and flanked by two marble busts.
The elevator and parking for four cars complete this precious estate, strategically located and perfect to enjoy the tranquility and privacy, without sacrificing the proximity to the main historical monuments of the city of Florence.
