Description
Villa Lisa is located in San Casciano in Val di Pesa, surrounded by a typical Tuscan landscape, known for the harmonious feel of its ancestral beauty. Dazzling and perfect, this magnificent landscape is just 20 kilometers away from Florence. Villa Lisa’s splendid property stretches for more than seven hectares. The grounds boast a chapel, fruit groves, and an Italian-style garden. In the center, you’ll find a majestic Villa built on the foundations of a pre-existing structure dating back to medieval times when it belonged to a powerful Florentine Guelph family. In 1560 it was purchased by the Gianfigliazzi family. In the 18th century, it housed the precious Vasari archives and subsequently a collection of Napoleonic memorabilia when the granddaughter of the Emperor owned it.
The property has been restored to preserve and reveal the aesthetic and historical value of the Villa. There is A/C throughout the Villa, which sits over three floors and has a tower and large basements.
The old floors have been restored and replaced, the original 18th-century frescos and decorations remain, and the bathrooms have a variety of marble tiling. One can wander from room to room in a timeless trance and enjoy internal courtyards, a winter garden, and a fabulous Tuscan kitchen along with many bedrooms and bathrooms, providing ample accommodation for either a Boutique Hotel or a large family home with exclusive guest rooms and entertaining ideas.
Villa Lisa renovation maintains the charm and atmosphere of a large, symmetrical villa, with some of the most impressive cellars in Tuscany. Ideal for creating beautiful spaces for Spa, Indoor pool, art and music events, or wine collections! There is a lift and ca. 25 bedrooms and 29 bathrooms in the main Villa, and in the Atelier, there are five bedrooms and six bathrooms completed by a gorgeous panoramic roof terrace of ca. 150 sq. mt.
The land consists of ca. 7.2 ha of formal gardens around the Villa with many types of roses, and there are beautiful olive groves, three parking areas, and three access roads to the property. There is also a well and water storage tank. Permission was granted for a swimming pool and tennis court, which could be renewed.
