Ancient country house recently restored - beautiful private garden - panoramic

Ancient country house (originally built in the XIII century), recently restored with respect of its historical characteristics, located in the village of Fornello, on the beautiful hills between Florence and Mugello.

It’s only 18 km far from Florence and at few minutes car from Fiesole, Borgo San Lorenzo, Pontassieve. Located at 400 m AMSL and surrounded by unforgettable landscape of vineyards, olive groves, cypress, chestnut, pine and oak trees, it' s a very good starting point to visit the whole Tuscany.

The house is disposed on two floors and consists of four bedrooms, two large living rooms with sofa beds and a very large eat-in kitchen with a typical fireplace perfectly working. Furniture are traditional but all modern comforts are available.

The house is enclosed in a 1500 sqm wide green park, with trees and flowered plants. It’s perfect for outdoor dining as well as for resting or reading under a pine tree, but you can also practice many different activities in the neighborhood.


Ping-pong table available in the garden.
