VILLA MANDRI An unexpected heritage in the Upper Valdarno After passing the ancient medieval village of Castelfranco in the direction of Piandiscò, near a bend in the Via dei Sette Ponti you will find Villa Mandri, hidden as it is set back considerably from the road. In the maps of the Captains of the Guelph Party of 1583, a manor house with a tower appears in the place called Mandri; in 1621 the Mandri estate. Over the centuries, the Villa has been the residence of important families such as the Restoni, the Arrighi and the Martinetti until 1930, when it passed into the current ownership of the Alamanni family. Farmhouse villa with attached chapel in the land registry of 1830. In 1902 Villa Mandri underwent a complete renovation to adapt the rooms and decorations to the dictates of an eclecticism that combined neo-Renaissance and neo-Gothic elements. It is in this guise that it can currently be seen. The façade, with five rows of windows of different heights on the second and third floors, divided by a string course, is characterised by the large portico at ground level, with three arches, with four quadrilateral pillars, of which the central one frames the entrance door. The portico is surmounted by a large terrace facing the main floor and overlooking the English garden, which dates back to the same period. The front of the villa is connected to the road by a long avenue bordered by dry stone walls and ending with a beautiful iron gate. The chapel is accessed from the garden. A swimming pool has recently been built, which is accessed via a stone staircase. In one of the most enchanting areas of the Tuscan countryside, we offer for sale a historic villa of great charm, surrounded by a private park and rooms that preserve the elegance of the homes of times gone by.

Each room features period furnishings, handcrafted details, and natural light, making the home warm and inviting in every season. The villa is ideal as a private residence, a prestigious home, or a property for high-end tourism, thanks to its structure, numerous outdoor spaces, and strategic location in the heart of Tuscany.

There is a place, in southern Salento, where the red earth meets the silver of centuries-old olive trees and the sea arrives like a whispered promise just three minutes away: a complex, a silent guardian of eight thousand square metres of land, where time seems to have paused among twisted trunks and slanting light filtering through the branches. A little further on, toward Pescoluse, the waters the world calls the Maldives of Salento return a turquoise that seems to belong to another latitude, and ten kilometres away, at Santa Maria di Leuca, the Adriatic and Ionian seas touch in an embrace few places on earth can claim. Here stand six independent dwellings, spanning around 365 square metres in total, trulli and liame carrying in their stone the memory of an ancient, still-living architecture, built to welcome those seeking Puglia's truest authenticity. But there is more: these dwellings can be transformed, according to the wish of whoever chooses them, into separate homes to be sold one by one to those who dream of their own corner of Salento, or brought together into a single, grand private residence, a hidden retreat among the olive trees, steps from Salento's most photographed sea. And while elsewhere in Salve the new General Town Plan now closes the door to further construction, this complex remains one of the last testimonies of a still-achievable dream: an investment whose rarity is set to grow with time.
