Elegant Apartment In A Villa For Sale In Florence

This elegant luxury apartment for sale is in a wonderful period villa located at the base of Monte Morello, in the hills of Florence, a world-famous city thanks to its rich history.

This prestigious property dates back to the 15th century; in the 18th century, after having several different owners, architect Alfonso Parigi, who had also designed the extension of the Boboli gardens, was asked to renovate it.

In the 19th century, the property passed into the hands of Jérôme Bonaparte, former King of Westphalia; it is in this period that the villa got its current looks. Over the years, the villa saw many illustrious guests, including French writer Adolph Thiers and American novelist Mask Twain.

This presitigious estate is enriched by a well-tended Italian-style garden measuring 3,000 sqm, which is located right above the villa's communal park, itself featuring a biological small lake, a charming marble fountain, 18th-century statues, an external patio, and a relaxation area located underneath a 19th-century loggia where you can relax in the quietness of your own home.

The apartment for sale is on the ground floor of the villa and measures 670 sqm; it is divided into two units: the main one, which measures 500 sqm, and a smaller one, measuring 180 sqm and in current need of renovation works. All materials used are of the highest quality and make all rooms extremely elegant and prestigious; these include parquet floorings in the living area, the marble flooring in the entrance hall, and the big wrought-iron windows that offer charming views of the garden.

This apartment's living area features a stunning living room with frescoed ceilings, a study, a hall and a dining room connected to the garden, an eat-in kitchen and a spare bathroom for guests.

The sleeping area includes six double bedrooms (five of which are en-suite) with some stunning parquet floors, all with breathtaking views of the garden.

This luxury apartment for sale in Florence is the emblem of elegance and prestige, that is perfectly combined with its fairy-tale setting.
