Villa dei Fiori is approximately 6 km from the medieval city of Arezzo in Tuscany. Arezzo is in the northern part of Valdichiana and has a population of around 100,000. The city is steeped in history and has wide range of boutiques and shops plus a vibrant selection of bars and restaurants. The train station provides high speed travel across Italy making day trips to Rome or Florence and weekend breaks in Naples easy options.

The property was built in the 1970's and is unabashed in 70's grand style and has been well maintained.  It is set over 3 floors and is approx. 530 sq m and is currently arranged as follows:

A private driveway leads to the villa with electric gates providing access. The integral garage is to the side of the villa with a door leading directly inside. The main entrance is at the front of the property where there are 3 sets of large, glass doors with a patio outside. There is a wonderful sense of symmetry to the ground floor and as you enter the grand foyer it brings you to the centre point. On either side of the foyer there are spacious open plan living areas, subtly separated with arches. The living room to the right has an open fireplace and to the left a more formal entertaining area. Directly ahead is an imposing curved flight of steps leading to a landing with a hallway. The left leads to a side entrance to the house and the garage. The right leads to a bathroom and a private suite including living room, bedroom and bathroom, that was previously home to a live-in housekeeper.

The staircase continues up to the first floor with a striking stain glass window midway on the landing and impressive, hand carved handrail.  Upstairs, there is a large hallway leading to 3 spacious bedrooms with balconies, a spacious main bathroom and second bathroom.  A study, formal dining room and kitchen complete the floor. The master bedroom, study and dining room all have doors leading out to the main balcony at the front of the villa, with spectacular views of Arezzo and the surrounding countryside. The kitchen and remaining 2 bedrooms have access to the rear balcony which has external steps leading to the ground floor and a separate set leading to the woods and private well in the grounds above the villa.

The property has an oil fuelled boiler and central heating with cast iron radiators. There is mains electricity and water is supplied by its own private well. There is a land line telephone connection and the mobile phone reception is good. The windows are wooden framed and single glazed.
