Prestigious historical estate in Palaia
Surrounded by the picturesque Tuscan countryside and located a short distance from the charming village of Palaia, one of the most historically rich places in the Valdera region, lies this enchanting stone residence within an estate of over 20 hectares. The property includes a main villa in a dominant location, and three annexes, ensuring exceptional privacy and seclusion. Built in the 16th century and documented in the historic Leopoldine maps, the villa is an important historical testament. It has been expertly restored to preserve the original, high-value elements, such as the ancient floors and majestic marble fireplaces, enriched with iconic pieces of mid-century Italian design.
The villa, approximately 800 sq. m., spreads over two levels plus a spacious attic, offering a succession of large and elegant rooms. On the ground floor, the welcoming entrance hall with a fireplace opens to the surrounding landscape through large windows that frame the garden. This level also features a large living room, a charming game room with a fireplace, a dining room, and a professional kitchen with a functioning fireplace. A master bedroom with a jacuzzi, a staff room with en- suite bathrooms, a service bathroom, and a laundry room with a storage area complete the floor. The first floor houses the sleeping area with five bedrooms, including two suites with a private sitting room and walk-in closet. Each bedroom has a private bathroom and is decorated with a unique style that blends historical charm with contemporary design. The attic offers an additional bedroom with an en-suite open bathroom, a relaxation area enriched with decorations and exposed beams.
The villa′s exteriors include 4000 sq. m. of flowered gardens, relaxation areas, and various outdoor dining spaces, an old orangerie, and a large gazebo wrapped in climbing roses. The property also features an oval swimming pool (12x7 m) with an integrated jacuzzi, located centrally in the park with an adjacent solarium area and outdoor shower. The estate of over 20 hectares follows certified organic farming principles. Part of the land is cultivated with about 700 productive olive trees, around twenty mixed fruit trees, and a woodland that hosts a natural white truffle ground. Completing the outdoor scenario are three additional buildings currently used as storage: a stone farmhouse with the possibility of expansion up to 200 sq. m., transformable into a guest house or private spa, a technical room with a service bathroom and irrigation systems, and another annex that can be converted into a caretaker′s residence.
