Overview
Location:
The town of Fiesole, 7 kilometers from the center of the Tuscan capital, is immersed in the fresh Florentine countryside. Since the 1400s, the wealthiest and most prestigious Florentine families, including the Medici family, have established their villas on these hills.
Area of Intervention:
Villa Sant'Ignazio is part of a large complex of the same name, whose construction dates back to the 18th century, which housed a Jesuit monastery until the last century. Following redevelopment, it has been divided into two distinct properties of equal prestige: Villa Machiavelli and Villa Sant'Ignazio.
Your Home, Your Life:
Fiesole undoubtedly represents one of the most exclusive and sought-after suburbs in the metropolitan city of Florence, considering its proximity, just 10 minutes by car from the north side of the city, and enjoying a privileged view of the capital and the Florentine countryside.
Art and History:
The Villa is an elegant historic residence located on Via Benedetto da Maiano on the slopes of the Florentine hills, where even Herman Hesse and Le Corbusier were enchanted by the beauty of the houses of Fiesole and the lush nature that dominated Dante's city.
Tuscany:
The magical atmosphere of this region can be found not only in the magnificent hilly landscapes surrounded by cypress trees and vineyards or in the culinary and cultural tradition that has been handed down for centuries in every town and in the natural marine reserves, but also in the art and architecture that recognize how this region has had numerous artistic experiments and avant-garde movements over the centuries, which have given it the current charm that is recognized and appreciated all over the world.
