Eco-sustainable Farmhouse in the Tuscan hills.
The property is in Reggello, 30 km from Florence. It consists of a former Convent transformed into a large farmhouse with the surrounding land.

A profound renovation in 2011 has transformed this former convent into a real jewel of a farmhouse. It is the unique result of the union between the suggestive secular architectures combined with modern technologies, which make it today a property entirely devoted to Eco-sustainability:
photovoltaic panels of 7 kw/h with the resale of surplus electricity produced to the National Energy System;
solar thermal panels for an average production of 500 liters of hot water for sanitary use,
rainwater recovery tanks in cisterns total of 70 cubic meters, with complete autonomy for the irrigation of vegetables and gardens and for systems connected to toilets.
Bio-pool with a natural Phyto-purification system.

It meets the expectations of those looking for a property:
to be enjoyed all year round, ideal for the private use of large families and guests,
located outside the cities and in contact with nature;
in the hills with a favorable climate all year round;
with excellent logistics near Florence;

It is also a suitable structure for those wishing to organize a small reception activity in certain periods of the year, for a limited number of guests or the organization of a so-called "Educational Farm".
A bit of history of the Farmhouse.
In the 14th century it was a humble peasant cottage: in its square yard wheat was threshed and in its large oven bread was baked for the families of the whole area. Then it became the hunting lodge of a noble Florentine family, later a Convent and a place of prayer for the Sisters of Nevers. Even today, visible traces of the convent chapel remain in one of the rooms.
The surrounding nature is generous with sunsets and fairytale landscapes and an inspiring quiet. Here you can also breathe the centuries-old history of the places: the small villages of the Valdarno have been elected a Unesco world heritage site.
In the same area, there are famous destinations for sober "religious tourism", such as the famous Benedictine Abbey of Vallombrosa and the Casentino with the religious hermitages of La Verna and Camaldoli.
A curiosity: this property also hides something "magical and mysterious", given by the singular phenomenon of an almond tree that flowers in January, when only for a few days the surrounding nature is covered with snow. This phenomenon comes from the particular microclimate that develops in this corner of the hill. Someone prefers to believe it happens because of the mystical and spiritual aura that permeates the place.

Florence, Italy: culture and tradition
In a wooden structure, the Theater had a large stage. It exhibited three tiers of boxes supported by a large loggia, making it the first architectural example of an "Italian" theater. A series of rooms and courtyards made the environment soundproof from the neighboring streets. It could accommodate over a thousand people, housed in the boxes and in the loggia open to the stalls, where the audience sat on fixed benches and in two distinct sectors to separate the male audience from the female one. In the center of the room, there was the area reserved for the most illustrious members of the Academy.In the nineteenth century, La Pergola expanded its activities to singing, dance, and opera, setting up high-quality programs with Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi, Rossini, Pacini, Ricci, etc. Since 1925, the Teatro Della Pergola has been a national monument.There are many other points of interest in this street. At number 59, you will discover the plaque affixed to the building, reminding us that Benvenuto Cellini created Perseus in those environments and died here in 1471.Discover San Giovanni
