Florence Hilltop Villa Offers La Dolce Views

A view you could sell tickets to

I hadn’t even got on the plane and this Florence villa captivated me. Is it any wonder when this is the view from the home’s back deck? Perfectly situated to frame the ancient city of Florence, this home could be a dump and still there’d be this. Of course it’s no dump …

The home is listed with Sotheby’s Italy for $15.96 million (€15 million) with Diletta Giorgolo Spinola. It contains six bedrooms and eight full bathrooms with a staff apartment and outbuildings containing a gym, personal spa, and bathroom. All in all there are 7,534 square feet under roof resting on 0.865 acres with some of the best views in the city.

As you might know, the city of Florence is on the Arno River. This home is across the river from the city center and is the perfect vantage point to see Florence end-to-end. It rests between the Boboli and Bardino Gardens bordering Fort Belvedere (Map).

You’ll really want to hop over to SecondShelters.com to see more. Really.
