Only a short distance from the delights of Florence is the impressive and private Villa Rovere, Florence Area, Tuscany. A historic property that dates to the 1600s, it has been painstakingly restored and updated to ensure that its original features and lines remain, but it also offers many modern comforts too. The exterior is original, right down to the paved courtyard and wellhead at its center. The enormous covered terrace is a perfect welcome and all of this is set against the backdrop of the Tuscan hills in the distance.
You will catch your breath at the scenery, with lines of vineyards, cypresses, and the other villas in the distance. However, your gaze will also linger on your surroundings. The beautifully manicured gardens and grounds of this villa will feel like a place of enchantment. They lead you through hedgerows into gardens and down to the elegantly shaped pool tucked into a former olive grove. Lounge in the sun or beneath the gazebo and enjoy total peace and privacy.
The interiors are a perfect balance to the outdoor living spaces and the plaster walls, terra cotta floors, and dark and heavy beams of the ceiling provide an authentic experience. A traditional Tuscan fireplace is in the great room where the large country kitchen is found. There is a living room with fireplace, and a formal sitting room.
The five bedrooms of this villa are divided between the three floors. The ground floor houses a twin suite, which is like a small apartment with kitchenette and private entrance. The first floor is where the queen suite is located, and features a dressing room and en suite bath. Two more twin suites are on this floor and each has a private bath. A charming little single bedroom is on the top floor.
The Villa Rovere is a dream of Tuscan sunlight and quiet. Just a ten-minute car ride to Florence, it will provide a place of welcome retreat and an ideal spot to enjoy day trips to the famous city.
