HIDDEN ITALYwww.hiddenitaly.comVacation Rentals, Italy, Tuscany - Florence GALILEO - Enjoy a terrace, a garden and a panoramic pool in Florence. Suitable without car!Location: Florence Sleeps: 2+2
This accommodation offers both rural peace and quiet but also proximity to Florence. It is a small guesthouse set in an exceptional location: next to a prominent Renaissance villa and in one of the best residential neighbourhoods of the area. This quarter outside the town carries the proud name 'Poggio Imperiale' - Imperial Hill. This elevated position allows for a beautiful landscape view. The apartment is housed in the former wood store and it is laid out on the ground floor. The visitor passes through an entrance hall and into a bright and airy living room. This offers a sofa suite (sofa-bed), a dining area with wooden table to seat 4 and a kitchenette in the corner. The room has many windows with frosted glass and a long glass front with wonderful views of the countryside. There is a bedroom with double bed, cupboard and antique chest and a smart bathroom with shower. Although the large windows in the three rooms almost cover the length of the building there is still plenty of privacy. The olive grove is just below the guesthouse and the greenery grows almost up to the windows. Facilities: Air-conditioning, satellite TV, use of a washing machine upon request on the premises, safe, private roof terrace, shared pool, reserved parking space inside the property, electronic entrance gate to the property, public telephone in the villa, ping-pong table. A glass door in the kitchen area opens directly onto a narrow path which leads to a pool and a lawn, just a few steps away. The oval pool faces south and is shared with the occupants of a further guesthouse on the property (also featured in our portfolio. Another door leads up steps to the private roof-top terrace. From here you enjoy the outstanding view of the valley below. The terrace offers plenty of privacy. Here you live in an olive grove, far away from the bustle of the city with its humming motorbikes and honking cars. While the quiet location is far from every disturbance, it is only 3 km to the city - a distance which you could also cover by foot. There is a bus stop approx. 500 m away, and buses go to the centre regularly. The hospitable family of the house provides bikes for free upon their guests' request for biking to the bus stop or conveniently exploring the city (two bikes). The villa's location at the southern edge of Florence is an ideal starting point for going on excursions to the Chianti region, to Siena or to the coast, as the feeder roads to the superstrada motorway Firenze-Siena and to the autostrada highway are close by (1.5 km) and can be reached quickly without having to pass through the city centre. All necessary shops and several restaurants are only 1 km away. Just by the way - the property owner can prepare dinners for you during your stay (please request menu and price on site). The accommodation is - compared to the usual prices in Florence - very reasonably priced and exceptional too for its quiet location and excellent facilities. A noble address in Florence! Property for 2+2 people: 1090 Eur per week, year round. A smaller barn is available for 930 Eur per week. Please request a web-link for the property with more pictures, detailed information and the current prices. Thank you very much!
