Silk & Cypress Florence, Tuscany

Property Description

A true Tuscan dream, this beautiful home in the middle of the countryside is an elegant rural retreat surrounded by Val d'Elsa's rolling hills, cypress trees and vineyards. It’s the ideal home for those looking to luxuriate in taking things slow. Inside, beamed ceilings, large windows and an elaborate hearth give the upstairs living room a feel of classy decadence, with two beautiful bedrooms completing the ground floor. Downstairs, a homey open-space living area invites plenty of casual socialising, as well as the kitchen and dining area ready to make all your Italian feast fantasies come true. Thanks to its terraced layout, you’re never far from a pair of French doors leading out onto the glorious garden. With its 1,500 square metres of lush, green grounds, you can while away the hours taking sunny walks or cool off with a dive into the glistening pool. Watch the sunset over the horizon with drinks under the poolside umbrella, then sit down for an elegant alfresco meal beneath the draped pergola, as you watch the stars come out one by one against the cobalt sky.
