Giotto’s Flat

REF. FIR180

For sale in Castello, a splendid section of a 14th-century villa featuring frescoes, nestled in the green Florentine countryside, just a few minutes from the centre of Florence. This exclusive residence is situated on the first northern hill of Florence, in an area historically favoured by noble families as a holiday retreat.

The apartment, spanning over 300 square metres across two levels (ground floor and basement), harmoniously blends historic features with modern design. The renovation has preserved the precious 14th-century frescoes, the antique terracotta floors and the exposed-beam ceilings, integrating them with contemporary details to ensure maximum comfort and functionality.

Among the most distinctive rooms are the study with its wooden and steel mezzanine, and the master bedroom with its mezzanine, en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. The built-in kitchen reflects traditional Tuscan style, whilst the décor tastefully combines antiques and modern design, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The property comprises two marble bathrooms, a basement area with a laundry room, cellar and utility spaces, as well as a beautifully maintained private garden of 480 m², featuring lemon trees, seasonal flowers and a wisteria arbour, ideal for al fresco dining. The courtyard provides outdoor parking spaces.

This villa is an oasis of charm, light and tranquillity, offering a rare combination of historic charm and contemporary comfort, perfect for those who wish to live close to the centre of Florence without sacrificing the peace of the countryside.
