New Owner for the Historic Villa Michelangelo on the Florentine Hills.<\/p>\n
Villa Michelangelo, the only building remaining intact on the hills of Florence, known to have been the residence and workplace of Michelangelo Buonarroti<\/strong>, has a new owner, as reported by La Repubblica.<\/p>\n Built between the 14th and 15th centuries, the historic residence was recently acquired for 8 million euros by a foreign investment fund. Located in the upper part of Settignano, a short distance from the heart of Florence, the villa was originally owned by the Buonarroti family. According to Michelangelo’s biographies, after his birth in Caprese, he moved to the Florentine hill, where he was nursed with “milk kneaded with marble dust,” nurturing his early passion for sculpture. The residence, spanning four levels and approximately 900 square meters, still retains its original structure, including a square internal tower used as a guardhouse. The surrounding land, featuring a small orchard and a plantation of 200 olive trees on nearly a hectare, adds further value to the property. The villa boasts a main facade with two open arched external terraces, while on the ground floor, there is an uncovered terrace with three cross-vaults with semicircular arches.<\/p>\n The uniqueness of this sale follows shortly after the transfer of a prestigious Boutique Hotel in Florence<\/strong>, which was sold for 28 million euros.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" New Owner for the Historic Villa Michelangelo on the Florentine Hills.
