Story
Located in Tuscany, just 12 minutes from the center of Florence, there is a magical estate, where history, art, and nature blend perfectly, making it an ideal place for stays and holidays.
Built across five different settings, all combining Emotion and Nature. Welcoming and elegant in its appearance, this villa boasts the best of Florentine tradition and craftsmanship.
Each of the five spaces are unique and were thoughtfully constructed, demonstrating a thorough and quality-driven choice in materials and finishing touches, resulting in a comfortable and charming environment with a touch of class among the decoration.
The first recorded mention of the Florentine Ghirlandaio family dates from the late 14th century, a family of painters known as “del Ghirlandaio”, Domenico, the progenitor, and favorite artist of Lorenzo the Magnificent, in whose workshop trained a young Michelangelo and Ridolfo.
Today all this wonder has come back to life in the version of an elegant estate, where the relationship between nature and emotion offers guests a stay of total relaxation.
The rooms were designed according to the refined Florentine architecture and with the most modern comforts. The organic Gardens, changing each season and savoring the first fruits, enrich the excellent cuisine of the Locanda.
A truly extraordinary cross-section of the Tuscan landscape, with a sort of small village in the center, complete with a manor house, farm, oil mill, lemon house, workshop, and studio.
The property was perfectly recovered by the Cecchi family starting in 2010. For 8 years and with the precise desire to inaugurate a new Renaissance, consecrating the entire estate in the wake of the best Tuscan tradition.
The interiors open one into the other, moved by coffered ceilings, floors in fine parquet, Bardiglio stone and white marble; pastel colors on the walls embellished with trompe-l’oeil, antique furniture, fabrics and precious furnishings. In short, the best of the unmistakable Florentine taste!
The Villa from its location on the hillside offer a splendid panorama over the valley framing a spectacular view of the city of Florence and its most important monuments can easily be identified.
The basements have original stone walls and vaults and host the SPA, where you can embark on a wellness program that ends in the 120 sqm swimming pool, surrounded by a soft lawn and shaded by olive and fruit trees.
It is literally impossible to get bored in a place and in a territory like this, it is one of the most beautiful and best-preserved properties in Italy, rich in everything: nature, art, history and a taste for good living!
