Wonderful Penthouse For Sale In Florence

On Florence's Bellosguardo hill, on a high and panoramic position just two kilometres away from the city centre, there is this luxurious penthouse for sale.

This property is located in one of the city's most exclusive areas, and is part of a wonderful, 16th-century historic estate, a prestigious castle which was once used as a temporary home by Pope Leo XII.

This property has been completely renovated and enjoys great privacy thanks to the wide park extending in front of it and the luxuriant pine forest behind it. It also features a nice private chapel with some perfectly-preserved high-quality details such as the aviaries, a gray-sandstone basin, columns with friezes and sculptures.

This stunning penthouse for sale is equipped with an elevator and some stairs leading to a large and airy hall with a wooden truss ceiling and an old fireplace; both are typical elements of Tuscany's architectural tradition. This property also features four elegant bedrooms, a kitchen with a view over the surrounding countryside and the dome of Florence's cathedral, a study, three bathrooms and a stunning panoramic tower. The latter measures 40m2 and has big windows and wooden beams to decorate its ceiling.

This luxury estate for sale is a true gem: it has great historical and cultural value which makes it truly unique and perfect for those who wish to live in the city but would also like to enjoy the quietness of a comfortable, private and rural setting with a full, round view over the beautiful city of Florence.
