Historic Country House in Fiesole, Tuscany

Details

The exposed wooden beams, terracotta flooring, and a stone fireplace immediately define the character of this farmhouse, a property that naturally carries the charm of its ancient origins. Its spaces tell a story of a presence built over time, with authentic materials found in the surfaces, the light streaming through the windows, and the solidity of the architectural elements. The sensation is that of a true home, intimate and welcoming, where the warmth of the interiors harmonizes effortlessly with the exterior, and every detail contributes to creating a measured, intimate atmosphere deeply connected to the Tuscan context. Developed over a commercial area of 270 sqm, the property comprises 14 rooms and 4 bathrooms, offering spaces that lend themselves to a spacious and well-articulated daily life, as well as a smooth management of hospitality. Built in 1100, it retains a precise identity that emerges both inside and out. The fireplace adds a focal point to the living areas, while the presence of the cellar completes the functionality of the house with an always valuable space in such a residence. Outside, the 364 sqm area opens into a private garden that accompanies the property seamlessly. The stone facade, enriched with terracotta details, provides an image consistent with the property's history; the natural stone paving, the stone staircase with wrought iron railing, and the glass portico create a well-calibrated dialogue between the original structure and contemporary livability. Completing the ensemble are the parking space and an organization of the outdoor spaces that invites living the house even outside, among paved areas, vegetation, and furnished corners for relaxation. Opening the windows in the morning, crossing the glass portico, and reaching the garden becomes a simple gesture that naturally accompanies the rhythm of the day. The outdoor spaces, among stone, potted plants, and areas dedicated to conviviality, offer the right setting for outdoor lunches, reading in the greenery, or intimate evenings around the house. Inside, the presence of the fireplace and traditional materials make the spaces suitable for a slow and fulfilling living dimension, where the relationship with the Tuscan countryside and Fiesole is expressed more in the quality of time than in ostentation. This farmhouse combines historical consistency, generous spaces, and a balanced relationship between interior and exterior, in one of the most sought-after contexts of Tuscany. In Fiesole, in the province of Florence, it represents a property of character, suitable for those seeking a residence with a recognizable identity, privacy, and an architectural presence that needs no effects to make an impression.
