Description
VILLA DEGLI AFFRESCHI - IMPRUNETA 20 Bedrooms Location and Surrounding Area The villa is just a stone’s throw away from Florence, whose museums house the greatest artistic treasures in the world. The most important sites in Florence include the Duomo, the Baptistery, the Uffizi, and the Churches of Santa Maria Novella and Santa Croce. Wander the ancient streets of the city until you reach the Arno River, cross the Ponte Vecchio and experience the newest area of Florence, the Oltrarno. Where else can you stroll the same streets walked by Michelangelo, Leonardo and Botticelli, while savoring the world’s best gelato? In just one hour by car, you can easily reach Siena, Italy’s loveliest medieval town, whose heart is represented by the magnificent Piazza del Campo, scene of the lively Palio horse race, which is held twice a year in July and August. The Campo is dominated by the Palazzo Pubblico and its Torre del Mangia, from which it is possible to admire the view of the town. Effectively a giant, open-air museum celebrating the Gothic, Siena boasts spiritual and secular monuments that have retained both their medieval forms and their exceptional art collections, providing plenty to marvel at. The villa is also a one-hour drive from Lucca, also known as “the city of 100 churches”: hidden behind imposing Renaissance walls, its cobbled streets, delightful piazzas and shady promenades make it a perfect destination to explore on foot. In less than an hour and a half’s drive, you can also reach Pisa, exceptionally well-known for its famous Leaning Bell Tower. After having climbed all the steps up to the top of the tower to admire the breathtaking view of the town, continue your visit to other monuments in the marvelous Piazza dei Miracoli, such as the Cathedral, the Baptistery and the Monumental Cemetery. Property 10667 is 18 km from Florence Amerigo Vespucci International Airport and 78 km from Pisa Galileo Galilei International Airport. Florence is 14 km from the villa, San Gimignano is 47 km, Siena is 67 km, Lucca is 81 km, Pisa is 82 km, Livorno is 86 km. The Property During the XV century, the hamlet was owned by the Ghirlandaios: the most well-known Renaissance family of painters in whose workshop many apprentices, including Michelangelo, learned the fine art of painting. Being their summer residence, the hamlet was not only a place to reunite the family and to relax but it was also a location to entertain relations with the most prominent artists of Renaissance such as Raffaello, Pontormo and Botticelli. Within its walls, the villa has a chapel frescoed by Ridolfo Ghirlandaio. The villa can accommodate 37 guests in 20 bedrooms (17 double bedrooms and 2 single rooms). However, on request, additional beds (up to 3 beds) can be added in some bedrooms. All of the bedrooms feature king-size beds, luxurious bed linen, stylish marble bathrooms with either a rain shower or bath tub, a walk-in wardrobe and a safe box. The accommodations are spread over multiple buildings on the estate: the Main Villa, the Farmhouse, the Old Shop, the Olive Press, the Olive Press' Dépendance, the Studio and the Limonaia. Surrounded by rolling hills, the villa boasts two magnificent swimming pools and a spacious poolside area equipped with comfortable sun loungers inviting guests to unwind. Offering a peaceful atmosphere, this exceptional area beside the pool represents the perfect place for enjoying moments of relaxation in the company of a good book and a glass of prosecco. The largest pool can be heated on request at an extra cost. The villa also features a wellness area and a restaurant with its own vegetable garden. The wellness area features a sauna, a hydro-pool, a Turkish bath, a massage area, an emotional shower for relaxation techniques and a well-equipped gym.
