€1,500,000

Ancient Tuscan house with beautiful stone walls, garden with swimming pool, barn for guests, and 30 hectares of land, for sale in Pelago, Florence. Immersed in the timeless quiet of the Vallombrosa valley, a place of extraordinary natural beauty where dense fir forests alternate with rolling hills planted with olive trees, stands this ancient Tuscan house dating back to the late fourteenth century. Once belonged to the Vallombrosan friars, spiritual and landed custodians of much of the valley, the property still retains traces of its centuries-old history with inscriptions and monastic coats of arms that emerge on the stone walls. The main residence, of about 300 square meters, is a stone structure with a solid and harmonious appearance, with wooden beam ceilings, terracotta floors and exposed stone walls. The interiors, arranged on two levels, offer on the ground floor a large living room with fireplace, a dining room, a rustic kitchen and a bathroom; upstairs there are three double bedrooms and a bathroom. Next to the main body, a former stone barn of about 200 square meters has been recovered into four guest apartments, all consisting of a living room with kitchenette, a bedroom and a bathroom. Outside, the property opens onto a landscape of about 30 hectares: a large olive grove with 300 plants, an extensive fir forest with over 20,000 trees and a private garden that embraces the house, where a 12x6 meter swimming pool with Roman staircase fits elegantly into the surrounding nature, offering relaxing views of the hills and an atmosphere of absolute quiet. The property includes a 12 sqm garage and outdoor spaces dedicated to relaxation and conviviality. In a context of absolute privacy, but only 5 km from Pelago and 30 km from Florence, this historic residence represents a fusion of authenticity, history and scenic beauty. An ideal refuge for those who want to experience the most authentic essence of the Tuscan countryside, among ancient monastic memories, in the heart of one of the most fascinating valleys in the Florentine territory.
