[post_content] => This spectacular property is located in the province of Pisa, in the heart of Tuscany, near the Thermal Town of Casciana Terme. In a slightly hilly position, it dominates the surrounding landscape of the plain of Pisa and the nearby mountains. Just opposite, a few hundred meters away, stands the famous castle of Lari, a medieval fortress renovated by the Medici in the 16th century.
The residential complex consists of: the large Villa, the Dependance, the garage, the room for storing tools and the changing room of the tennis court. All the buildings have been recently renovated and are perfectly habitable. The Villa is accessed from a nineteenth-century gate by means of a wide avenue bordered on the sides by a row of lime trees that leads to the car parking areas (max 25 cars).
The Big Villa (870 sq m) consists of a ground floor of approx. 320 and a first floor of 320 sq m in addition to the attic space (230 sq m), two terraces and a loggia.

Italian Renaissance architecture: homes in Florence
The property is on one of the ancient streets in the heart of the old city, full of buildings dating back to the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
The property for sale is inside a 16th-century building of high historical value and listed by the Italian Fine Arts (Soprintendenza Delle Belle Arti).
It is on the ground floor overlooking a wonderful Renaissance courtyard. Around it, the walls of the Palace preserve frescoes in excellent condition. This courtyard's silence and privacy are interrupted only by the sound of the water of a fountain positioned in the center.
The apartment has high vaulted ceilings and retains historical elements brought to light under the floor, still visible after the last renovation. It is in excellent condition, with an internal surface of 167 square meters, on two levels:
At the first level:
- entrance,
- large living area,
- kitchenette.
- first main bedroom with en-suite bathroom,
- second primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom,
- Service bathroom for the ground floor.
The second level is accessible via a short flight of internal stairs. It comprehends:
- an additional room that can be used as a third bedroom or, if desired, also as a study
- a bath.
The property includes a large cellar.
The heating system is an independent radiant floor heating.
Air conditioning system with individually adjustable thermostats in each room.
A house art museum in Florence Italy
The building belonged to wealthy Florentine families over the centuries. It shows all the nobility of its history and is an emblematic expression of the Renaissance period. After crossing the mighty entrance door, a vast archway adorned with oversized lights and a wrought iron gate from the late nineteenth century. You can glimpse a suggestive glimpse of the charming internal courtyard through it.
On one of the vertical walls of the court, a fresco is visible by the renowned painter of the 1600s, Baldassare Franceschini, known as the Volterrano, which includes an oversized coat of arms with the symbol of the Medici-Della Rovere Family.
The well-kept and elegant condominium consists of only nine residential units. The interiors and exteriors of the building still show the beautiful forms conferred on it by the sixteenth-century architectural interventions, which as for many facilities that overlook the street, give unity to the style of the whole context.
The Palace appears in the list drawn up in 1901 by the Italian General Directorate of Antiquities and Fine Arts as a monumental building considered National Artistic Heritage and has been subject to architectural protections since 1914.
The center of Florence: between art and Renaissance culture
The pedestrian street (strictly without cars) where our building is is one of the main routes from the Santa Croce district towards Piazza del Duomo and Piazza Della Signoria and vice versa. It is of great historical and artistic value due to the - incredible but true - presence of as many as 29 historic buildings, formerly convents, boarding schools, residences of the most powerful Florentine families of the Middle Ages, and then of the Renaissance.
The street is a kind of open-air museum. At every meter they trace historical artifacts of historical value and interest, iconographic presences attributed to artists of the caliber of Domenico Veneziano, Benozzo Gozzoli, Sandro Botticelli and Ridolfo del Ghirlandaio.
Towards the southern part of the street opens the small square of San Pier Maggiore, today manned by a lively fruit and vegetable market, artisan shops, antique dealers, and restaurants. This part retains the appearance of a small commercial and folk borough compared to the residential and noble one that characterizes the rest of the street.
The location is in the heart of the city.
The property is halfway between the Santa Croce district and Piazza del Duomo. It is an area much loved by tourists and locals, on the one hand for its powerful historical and noble character and the other for the welcoming and familiar atmosphere that you breathe.
On the one hand, you arrive at the most prestigious monuments and museums of Piazza del Duomo and Piazza Della Signoria; on the other hand, you arrive at Piazza dei Ciompi and the lively S.Ambrogio market. The Synagogue and the Zona Universitaria are in the same area, reachable through streets dotted with workshops, theaters, art galleries, and hidden gardens.
