Located on a panoramic hill just outside Florence,Villa Aurora Fiorentina is located so that it catches each ray of Florentine sunshine. The home enjoys aspectacular viewover the city centre, located a 15-minute drive away, and the countryside.
The estate consists of the main villa, an out buildingand a large garage/agricultural annex. The main villa and the out building are connected through thepanoramic terraceof a largeloggia, which creates a charming ambience and a panoramic viewpoint where you candine against the spectacular backdrop of the Florentine city centre.
The 8 hectaresof property used to be a farmhouse and a barn, part of a large agricultural estate that covered the entire hill. In the late 20th century the property was bought for its panoramic position and completely rebuilt into a luxurious villa with an out building. The property is located on the sunny side of a hill and enjoys sunshinethroughout the entire day.
The main villa is divided into four levels. The ground floor has an entrance hall with a stone staircase, a large living room with a cosy fireplace, a dining room with a view over the garden, a family room, aspacious kitchen, a guest bathroom and alaundry room.
The first floor features a master bedroom with a bathroom and walk-in closet, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a second family room, one study with windows overlooking Florence, and one large wooden study with access to the terrace on top of the loggia.
There is an attic space with one bedroom and a bathroom, plus two basement levels with storage and the garage.
The out building and former barnare built at the most panoramic angle of the property and have a270 viewover the lush green valley and the Florentine city centre. Its dining room and living room have large arch-shaped windows that let in thepicture-perfect landscape. The building also has 3 luminous bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, a kitchen and a panoramic terrace for spectacular outside dining opportunities.
There is a separate agricultural annexlocated on a terrace under the out building; therefore it is completely invisible to the other buildings of the property. The annexis primarily used for storage. It has high ceilings, large windows, and natural light, leaving the opportunity to restore and repurpose the space to taste.
