Villa in the heart of Tuscany, surrounded by a large wooded park, with swimming pool and whirlpool bath Beautiful independent villa with private swimming pool and whirlpool bath, in the heart of Tuscany just a few kilometres from Florence, at 470 m above sea level.
Outside there are two loggias. The first, of about 25 square metres, is directly accessible from the kitchen, has an antique wood-burning oven and is furnished with table and chairs. As it is illuminated, it is ideal for outdoor meals. 2 m from the loggia, opposite, always along the pavement of the house (accessible to the disabled), is the barbecue corner with sink, worktop and grill.
The second loggia of about 25 sq. m. is ideal for romantic candlelight evenings in the colder months of the year and has recently been closed in on all sides with state-of-the-art fixtures, heated and furnished with a comfortable five-person hydromassage tub, equipped with chromotherapy and music to enjoy the splendid view over the Casentino Valley. 30 m from the entrance to the villa is the large swimming pool (5 x 12 m) with Roman steps, entirely paved and equipped with a shower accessible to the disabled. The solarium is equipped with a pergola with sofas and a card table, sun loungers, chairs and umbrellas. There is a splendid panorama, with views of Poppi Castle and the Sacro Monte de la Verna. Opposite, there is a playground for children and adults with ping pong table. A beautiful park of oaks, chestnut trees, holm oaks, acacias and centuries-old pines is part of the property. Crossing the park, where wild rabbits, squirrels, barn owls and buzzards can be spotted, one arrives in front of the villa in its dominant position overlooking authentic pictures of the Casentino Valley: the Sanctuary of Verna to the east, the medieval Castle of Poppi to the west, the Pratomagno chain to the south, and the thousand-year-old Casentino forest, now a National Park, to the north.
The villa covers an area of 70 m², all on the ground floor. The main entrance on the left leads into the spacious living room, furnished with period sofas, a fireplace, satellite TV and a game table. For lunches to be eaten inside there is an extendable table set near the stone wall. Adjacent to the living room is the kitchen equipped with electric oven and microwave, electric hotplate, four-burner cooker, cooker hood, sink, dishwasher, fridge and freezer and direct access to one of the two loggias. To the right of the main entrance, there is a room accessible via a sliding door even for the disabled and a private bathroom with a window, equipped with a washbasin, WC, bidet and a shower directly on the floor accessible to the disabled. The utility room with washing machine is also on the ground floor.
The Adriatic Sea is approx. 90 minutes away and the Tyrrhenian Sea approx. 120 minutes by car. It is possible to bathe in the lake, which is approx. 1.5 km from the centre of the village of Pratovecchio, or in the Arno river. Excursions can be made to the Poppi zoo park, the Verna Sanctuary, the Camaldoli hermitage and the Casentino National Forest Park. Florence is an hour's drive away, Arezzo is 40 minutes and Siena 90 minutes. From Arezzo it only takes an hour and 5 minutes to get to Rome by fast train, so day trips to the capital are also possible.
Here, past and present merge to let guests share what nature has in it and what man has humbly recognised and preserved. The owners await guests with their specialities, both on arrival and every mid-week. To our welcome guests, a complimentary self-catering welcome dinner.
