Description
The property in question is located on the hill called "Castello," where the fortified medieval village of Carmignano once stood. Part of the complex developed around the historic Villa is the elongated manor building that still retains sixteenth-century forms with a beautiful late sixteenth-century facade, featuring pietra serena stone frames on the main floor and typical "kneeling" windows on the ground floor. In the early 1800s, with the establishment of the farm, the lateral wings were added to the sixteenth-century structure, which were used as cellars for aging and storing wine. The properties in question, intended for residential use, are the lateral portion of the villa that also includes a fifteenth-century annex, initially used as stables and later as an oil mill. They are arranged on two above-ground floors divided into four real estate portions, of which the three main ones have a basement. The complex enjoys an extraordinary view of the areas of Florence, Prato, and Pistoia, and is set in an elegant 3,500 square meter park over three levels: the common area at the entrance is set up with an Italian garden with a central fountain, but each unit has its own garden; at the second level, the garden hosts the panoramic swimming pool, and at the third level, the area reserved for car parking is hidden and not visible from the houses. The restoration of the buildings, carried out by the current owners, lasted over two years, was radical and rigorous, and is documented at every stage. The conservative restoration favored typically Tuscan materials of the highest quality such as terracotta and pietra serena stone, with wooden parquet in the bedrooms, modern fixtures.... The four real estate portions are in excellent condition and immediately habitable while maintaining the current layout, but with few interventions, they can be combined into a single portion. Two of them are independent villas with their own garden and an internal area of about 450 square meters. The third, however, is a villa also of 450 square meters but internally divided into two apartments each consisting of two bedrooms, connected by an internal staircase. The fourth portion, the smallest, is divided into two apartments with a total of about 250 square meters and a pertinent courtyard. Overall, within the real estate complex, we find, divided among the various portions, 15 bedrooms and 15 bathrooms. This important villa is potentially perfect for those who need a unique property in the heart of the Tuscan hills, with large, well-divided spaces perfectly usable for both hospitality and residential use. The real strengths of this exclusive residence are undoubtedly the careful and skillful renovation, the pool, the splendid gardens, and the breathtaking view. A prestigious villa ready to experience the best that this magnificent territory can offer. *The present information and floor plans are merely indicative and do not constitute contractual elements.
