The Torricella is an ancient stone farmhouse developed at different times around a medieval tower, recently restored with great care. It is located inside the new park of Travalle - a protected area of woods and farmland framed by the hills of Calvana and the river Marina from which the Romans drew water for one of the first aqueducts of Florence. Travalle was the place where from the Renaissance onwards the Florentine Patricians stayed in the summer, and it has remained almost as it was in the sixteenth century: a small farming community that allows you to immerse yourself in traditional country life although at half an hour From the city. The villa is in fact already represented in the sixteenth century maps of the city of Florence. The Torricella is located at the foot of the Poggio Dell'Uccellaia (included in the property), entirely covered by a dense forest of cypress trees that guarantees silence and privacy. On the other side the villa is oriented towards the medieval village and castle of Calenzano Alto. About ten hectares of farmland surround it, isolating it from other properties. Thanks to the minimum development of the area and its current destination in park, the neighboring properties are virtually the same as we see in the Renaissance maps: the Villa del Pratello to the west and the ancient mill of Valigari to the east. Just beyond the Pratello there is the village developed around the Villa and Fattoria di Travalle - The Historical and Cultural centre of the Park bearing its name. The exposure to the south and the isolated location of the villa guarantee excellent light even in winter. All the external walls are made of Alberese, the local stone, while the roof uses the traditional terracotta tiles. All the internal floors are in terracotta of Impruneta. The property is about 750 sqm of commercial area, 3 hectares of farmland (with about 300 olive trees).

The splendid residence dating back to the twelfth century has been skillfully restored, and is presented in a country-chic style with highly sought-after tones and finishes typical of Tuscany and a delicate Provençal touch. Inside are a succession of colors and lights typical of the countryside. The ground floor is dominated by the large living room with its seventeenth-century stone fireplace, the dining room, the kitchen decorated with manganese majolica tiles, the study obtained from the sacristy, the wine cellar, the library and the guest bathroom. A sturdy stone staircase leads to the second floor with two master bedrooms one with en suite bathroom, a third double bedroom, two bathrooms and a guest bedroom. The garden is enriched by typical native plants, strawberry's, olive trees, lime trees and aromatic essences that give an marvelous scent to the whole property, a garden to be enjoyed as well as admired.

Charming country house with its adjoining barn, for a total of approximately 600 m2, 20 minutes from Florence on the hills of San Casciano, immersed in the greenery of the privacy of a harmonious garden with various types of plants and an olive grove of approximately 6 hectares. The main house, on sloping land, is in need of modernisation works to make its large rooms shine again. With a number of direct accesses to the garden, the ground floor lends itself to the most diverse distributions of rooms: from the entrance loggia you can enter both the kitchen and the living room, in addition to two other large bedrooms, bathroom and closet. A staircase leads to the upper floor where we find three bedrooms and a bathroom, as well as a splendid covered loggia. The first floor currently offers a further small apartment with two rooms and a bathroom which is accessed by an external staircase and that can naturally be merged again with the rest of the floor. The former barn is now a separate apartment with an entrance with large windows, surrounded by flowers and a beautiful access terrace, with two large rooms, bathroom and closet. Bright and panoramic, it's a perfect solution for guests or for a separate study area. On the lower floor of the barn there is a large warehouse that can be used for any of your needs: leave it as it is and use it as a garage, or renovate it to have an additional guest or staff area. A property of great charm with enormous potential.
