This breathtaking villa is one of the oldest in the hamlet of Castelfranco Piandiscò, and it wears its history with pride. The traditional stone exterior gives way to a charmingly traditional living space – you'll be enchanted by the rustic wooden beams, collection of antique furniture and terracotta tiles. The ancient Valdarno fireplace is a beautiful centrepiece, and you'll find a second feature fireplace in the kitchen. The four bedrooms are wonderfully peaceful, and one even has access to the balcony, where you can sip your morning espresso in the fresh air. In, fact, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to outdoor space – from the beautiful garden, full of greenery and flowers, to the smart patio, you can't help but adopt an alfresco lifestyle here. Pick a book or magazine from the extensive home library, and bask in the Italian sunshine before taking a refreshing dip in the infinity pool. Adventurers can explore the stunning scenery surrounding the commune, wandering through olive groves and beech woods in true tranquility. And, if you fancy a day in the city, both Arezzo and Florence are only thirty kilometres away – their world-famous cultural relics have to be seen to be believed.

About Florence East
Machiavelli, da Vinci, Botticelli, Michaelangelo, Galileo - it’s hard to concisely capture Florence’s monumental impact on the arts, science and philosophy, but a swift run-through of some of the main names active in the Republic during the Renaissance era gives you an idea of just how influential it really was.
