Description in Detail
Casa Galilea is a charming independent villa originally part of a 17th-century hamlet. This renovated Tuscan home in excellent condition is located only 20 minutes from Florence center and 5 minutes from Impruneta center. It embraces the quintessential Tuscan style with its old stones, wooden beams, high ceilings, and terracotta floors while including fine modern finishes and large spaces with natural sunlight.
The cozy Casa Galilea of 300 m2 sits in a private setting surrounded by trees and gardens with its own gated entrance and driveway. It includes an old stone barn of 80 m2 to renovate and has already its permissions to become a guest house.
The ground floor hosts a living area with access to the front terrace, large eat-in kitchen, dining room, study/office, 1 bathroom and a spacious living room with high ceilings and original fireplace. This grand sala flows out to the garden, enjoys natural sunlight, and is the perfect room for entertaining guests and relaxing by the fireplace.
A staircase leads you to the upper floor featuring the spacious en-suite master bedroom. This floor also hosts 2 other guest bedrooms, a bathroom, and a living area with kitchenette. This guest area has an independent entrance from outside, ideal for separating these quarters into another apartment.
The house is embraced by 5000 m2 of land that include a small woods area with ancient trees, several terraces, a back garden with an old well and space to add an above-ground or Plunge Pool and an ideal place to grow your own vegetables and herbs.
