Villa in Cerreto Guidi, Florence

Perched in a dominant position on the edge of the historic center of Cerreto Guidi, this impressive 17th century villa is a real gem with unmistakable charm and promising potential. The property covers a total area of around 1,250 m², divided between the main building and several outbuildings. Parts of the historic structure are in need of renovation and can be partially demolished, opening up a wide range of possibilities for redesign and individual use. The villa currently has 22 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms - a clear indication of the generous amount of space available, which is ideal for private dream homes, exclusive guest accommodation or tourist concepts such as a boutique hotel. The historic character of the property is omnipresent: centuries-old trees line the driveways, the interior breathes history and the sweeping views over the Tuscan hills as far as Vinci - Leonardo da Vinci's home town - lend the property a very special aura. The direct view of the bell tower, an architectural landmark of the region, is particularly impressive. The property is situated on a plot of around 3 hectares, which is divided into wooded areas, meadows and a well-tended olive grove with around 200 productive trees. The natural surroundings offer a high degree of privacy and retreat without having to forego the proximity to urban infrastructure - all important services, shops and cultural facilities are just a few minutes away. Another valuable feature of the property is its two own deep wells, which enable an independent water supply - a significant advantage, especially for agricultural use or the maintenance of the spacious plot. With its privileged location, the extensive plot and its structural generosity, it offers enormous development potential - whether as a prestigious family residence, a stylish retreat or as a project for exclusive tourist use.
