About this property

House with Pool and Magnificent Views 15' from city center

La Piazzetta is part of a magnificent villa built in the second half of the XVII century in the hills between Florence and Fiesole. In the 1970s it underwent a complete restructuring and is now a totally independent and charming house with its own entrance, terrace, garden and pool. Five years ago it underwent another complete refurbishing. It has central heating, air conditioning, wifi and satellite TV connection. The living room, terrace and pool command breath-taking views of Fiesole and Florence from the Duomo to the hills of Impruneta. The house sits in a garden of olive trees and cypresses and from May to October you can enjoy all fresco dining in the terrace overlooking this beautiful panorama. The city center (Piazza della liberta) is 15 minutes away (6.4 Km) by car or 20 Minutes by bus. The bus stop is 800 meters from the house. This stunning location allows you to visit the busy city centre and its art treasures and twenty minutes later retreat to this peaceful garden to enjoy the pool amongst the olive trees. The house itself is on two levels. On the first floor there is a living room, 2 bedrooms with a double bed each and a bathroom with a shower. Downstairs, a big kitchen with a table and six chairs can double as a dining room. There is also a bedroom and a bathroom with a bath tub as well as a separate laundry space. Outside a terrace will welcome you with a table and chairs for six. In the garden, the pool and sun deck amongst olive trees is equipped with umbrella and lounge chairs. We recommend that you have the house cleaned once a week and the bed linen changed. We can also arrange for private visits to Florence with professional guides expert in the history of art of this beautiful city.

Holidays in heaven (of Florence)
We had a wonderful stay in this beutifull house with an extraordinary view of Florence. There could be no better place to enjoy the cultural offers of the city and nevertheless beeing able to escape the hustle within minutes, whenever it becomes to hot and crowded. Everything in the house and the extraordinary garden and Pool was in perfect shape. The reception at arrival and the local organisation by Cecilia was extremely friendly and competent and we got many helpfull informations. Overall we can strongly recommend this extraordinary holiday home without any restriction. Everyone who loves to discover not only the city of Florence but also its vicinity and the beautifull hills of tuscany won‘t find a better place.

Toller Außenbereich, Riesenpool, mittelmäßiges Haus
Das Haus hat eine tolle Lage in den Hügeln von Florenz. Fussläufig ist zwar kaum etwas zu erreichen, die Buslinie ist aber sehr hilfreich, um in 20 Minuten bis in die Innenstadt von Florenz zu gelangen. Der Pool, die Aussicht etc. sind kaum besser zu bekommen, einfach klasse! Die Beschreibung des Hauses ist leider nicht besonders aussagekräftig, es handelt sich nicht um ein eigenes Ferienhaus, sondern um ein Zweifamilienhaus mit mindestens einer weiteren Bewohnerin. Leider gibt es keine Bilder von außen, eindeutige, offensichtliche Hinweise oder einen Grundriss, an denen man es hätte erkennen können. Der Urlaub war dennoch sehr schön und erholsam, trotz extrem hoher Temperaturen. Cecilia hat uns das Haus sehr nett und kompetent übergeben. Also alles in allem ein schöner Urlaub, herzlichen Dank!

A nature experience only 15 min's from Firenze city center by car
The property presented exactly as advertised. We were received at the agreed time by a very professional and welcoming Cecilia, who by the way speaks a delightfully clear English. The rooms fit our expectations, the deck is a marvel - and the treck to the pool is definitely worth every step on the custom built staircase, with a superb area for leisure. Parking was "spicy" to someone used to rather more flat countryside, but that was only to be expected when renting a property on the mountainside. Unexpected "bonus" for us was the lush pool towels supplied, as well as the mosquito deterrants left by the owners to assist with minimizing the unwelcome attentions by that particular part of nature. Only one 'negative' feature to comment - which after a couple of days was turned to a positive; the downstairs bedroom is fairly damp and cool. However, that came to be the teen's favorite afternoon place-to-be when not out and about. So all in all a warm recommendation from me to this retreat. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Hello, we are a Italian and French couple, living in Brussels and enjoying Florence as much as we can. We would like to share this beautiful city with you too. Fabrizia and Fabrice

Why they chose this property

This is a family house we are very happy to go back to. In 2008 we had it completly refurbished to make sure it was confortable and cosy for our family.

What makes this property unique

A stay in Tuscany can be unforgettable. The best works of art from the renaissance period and beyond, the food, the weather and above all the people of this city are the ingredients for a memorable stay. Our house is small enough to be manageable but spacious enough to cater for 6 people comfortably. The garden is big. And the pool and terrace which you have all for yourselves will allow you to rest and enjoy the weather after a busy day visiting the sights. From here you can easily drive around Tuscany and return for the evening. We hope you enjoy it as much as you do.
