Description

Nestled between the charming cities of Florence and Siena, Villa Semifonte is a perfect example of a traditional Tuscan Leopoldina. Its central turret adds a unique charm to the villa's structure, while the spectacular views of the Tuscan rolling hills provide a fascinating backdrop.
Originally built in the 18th century, the villa comprises the main building and a distinctive barn. The property has undergone meticulous restoration, ensuring that its historical features are preserved which exude the timeless elegance of traditional Tuscan architecture. The interiors are tastefully furnished in soft tones, creating a serene atmosphere throughout the spacious villa.
The outside area offers several shady sitting areas to enjoy the magnificent views from every perspective and a fabulous infinity pool, that overlooks the valley and faces west, is set below the villa. There is a covered veranda to enjoy the sunset and a beautiful covered terrace for outdoor dining.
The 6000 sqm of land includes carefully maintained lawns surrounding the villa and barn, a large field below the pool and an olive grove with ca. 80. olive trees. There is an electric entrance gate and complete security system.
Villa Semifonte is set over two levels. There are several entrances to the ground floor that comprises a spacious living area with a fireplace and dining area, a kitchen, 1 bedroom with bathroom and a further large room with bathroom which could be a study. On the first level are six spacious bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms finely decorated with handmade tiles. In the tower room there is a further study or single room. The boiler room/laundry is accessed from the garden together with a further bathroom.
The barn, which has been partially restored, offers 350 sq. meters of potential living space on two levels. This versatile structure could be transformed into additional living quarters, offering up to two bedrooms with bathrooms, a gym, and expansive reception rooms. The barn presents a range of possibilities, whether as guest accommodations, a home office, or a recreation space.
One of the defining features of Villa Semifonte is its breathtaking panoramic views, which are visible from almost every room, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the stunning Tuscan landscape.

This enchanting villa is the perfect choice for those seeking an authentic Tuscan lifestyle. With its historical charm, luxurious interiors, and unparalleled views, Villa Semifonte is an ideal choice as a private residence, a vacation home, or a rental property.
