This apartment (130 m2) has been created from the restoration of an ex-barn next to an ancient country manor that, over the centuries beginning from 1400, has undergone several transformations. The villa is also well-known in the area because it seems that Saint Francis stopped in its private, adjoining chapel on his way from Chiusi della Verna to the nearby Convento dell Incontro . The property is located only 18 km from Florence, 10 km Pontassieve with all kinds of shops, and just 2 km from a tiny village with food shop. Peaceful position, indeed, the road ends at the villa, and in addition to the owners who use it occasionally, only one family (caretakers of the property) lives in a farmhouse near the barn.The apartment, recently restored and transformed into a comfortable vacation residence, is independent with reserved external spaces boasting wonderful views over the hills. The house is accessed along a small narrow dirt track that is not suitable for large cars. Parking. Gr. fl.: Spacious and sunny living/dining room on two levels, with two large French doors leading to the private, partially shaded lawn from which one conveniently gains access to one of the lawns of the villa that the owner kindly puts at guests disposal.

Comfortable furniture. Central heating.
