This magnificent historical estate, built in a Tuscan style in the 14th century, is for sale on the exclusive hills surrounding Florence. Belonging to the Davanzati, a patrician family from Florence, this luxurious villa measures 1,500 square meters and is one of the most spectacular and exclusive historical homes in the area. The exclusive hills of Florence embrace the essence of the sublime, dancing between history and beauty, enchanting the eyes and nourishing the soul with their timeless magic. This historical villa is immersed in a 5,000 sqm park, made up of well-kept gardens and a forest, from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the splendid city center of Florence.

This historical villa was built by the Davanzati family in the 14th century and, more recently owned by the eccentric Braggiotti family, a family of opera singers, musicians, and artists who transformed it into a unique place for creativity and art. Indeed, during the 1920s, the Braggiotti, passionate about music and art, hosted important exponents of the Futurist movement and art critics such as Sir Harold Acton, transforming the villa into an intellectual salon and later into a dance school.

The entrance to the villa from the main road is impressive, with a gate leading to an avenue leading to the noble villa. The villa is spread over 4 levels, for a total of 1,600 sqm. The 700 sqm ground floor houses beautifully decorated reception rooms and open-air living areas. The 130 sqm winter garden hall, decorated with stuccos, loggias, and vaulted ceilings, illuminated by a splendid Art Nouveau skylight, is certainly the most magnificent room. The other large rooms feature beautiful ornate coffered ceilings, antique paintings, tapestries, and impressive stone or marble fireplaces. The ground floor also includes a laundry room and staff quarters. On the first floor, measuring 610 sqm, there are other rooms, including a splendid antique library and numerous double bedrooms. The second floor, served by a lift and in need of renovation, offers the possibility of creating up to 12 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. The gem of the villa is the magnificent master suite located on the floor of the tower, featuring an upper terrace that offers a breathtaking view over the city of Florence. Finally, the basement level, measuring 330 sqm, houses a beautiful brick cellar with an ancient well in the middle, perfect for wine lovers, with a separate entrance and big storage rooms.

The park surrounding this historical villa measures 5,000 square meters and is characterized by Italian gardens, with fountains, ancient wells and a large covered loggia, which is a unique feature of this property. It is a colonnaded loggia covered in ivy, built as a bridge over the road leading to the villa, giving it a suggestive and romantic atmosphere. From the park and from the panoramic terraces, the view is lost among the rows of vines that extend up to the magnificent historic center of Florence, offering a show of disarming beauty. From the windows of the upper floors, it is even possible to admire Giotto's famous bell tower and enjoy an incredible view of the hills of Fiesole.

This prestigious residence represents a real private oasis on the most exclusive hills of Florence. Among the vineyards and olive groves, one breathes a unique harmony, in which the intense green of the cypresses blends with the infinite blue of the sky, creating a palette of colors that enchants the eyes and nourishes the soul. The purchase of this villa represents a unique opportunity to own one of the most spectacular Florentine residences, in a strategic position close to the center of Florence, the airport and all the main services.
