Among the hills overlooking Florence from the northeast, Respiro Toscano stands in a high and panoramic position, overlooking a deep and scenic valley that opens between olive groves and woods.
The main villa, approximately 350 m² , is a manor house with likely 17th-century origins, expanded over the centuries. The dovecote tower, attached to the main building, tells its ancient story: once a place of observation and control, it is now a distinctive architectural feature that gives it an elegant and recognizable profile.
Next to the villa is a two-story rural building of approximately 170 m² , which once housed a barn, vat room, and cellar. This authentically charming structure offers considerable potential for conversion into living or hospitality spaces, preserving its original features. The property also includes a small, independent annex of approximately 26 m² , simple yet full of character, overlooking the valley like a small retreat or private studio.
All around, the land is alive and well-tended: an olive grove that allows the estate to produce its own oil and a small private vineyard , perfect for those who dream of making a limited but personal Chianti wine. A secluded, harmonious, authentic ensemble—where beauty is born from the landscape and time.
The villa's interiors retain the solidity and charm of Tuscan rural tradition: antique terracotta floors, beams and terracotta tiles, fireplaces, and stone staircases. The large kitchen with fireplace opens onto the living area, followed by a spacious living area, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious study, and the dovecote tower, now converted into a living space with stunning views of the valley. The second residential unit, also independent, is on the ground floor and comprises a living room, dining room, kitchenette with outdoor access, two bedrooms, and a bathroom.
It is a sincere, solid house, made to be lived in simply, with light entering from every window and the landscape becoming part of everyday life.
Why it won us over
For the view that fills the gaze and leaves room to breathe. For the dovecote tower that tells an ancient story and gives the house a unique character . And for the potential of a whole that combines authenticity and the possibility of transformation, remaining true to its Tuscan soul.
Respiro Toscano is a home to truly experience: in the simplest of everyday life, surrounded by nature and light, with the freedom to make it a private retreat or a welcoming home for those who love the true Tuscany.
The property is accessible via a comfortable and well-maintained dirt road. The surrounding landscape offers sweeping, gentle vistas: olive groves, vineyards, fruit trees, and a patch of woodland that frames the house, providing privacy and a sense of natural balance. The former barn, once renovated, could accommodate a spacious and characteristic space, with the possibility of building a panoramic swimming pool , perfectly integrated into the landscape and overlooking the valley. The elevated position and light exposure make Respiro Toscano an ideal place in any season, where silence, clean air, and broad horizons reign supreme.
On a ridge overlooking Florence from the northeast, the hills stretch between vineyards, olive groves, and oak forests in a landscape of rare authenticity. It is a cultivated and peaceful countryside, home to ancient estates like Castello del Trebbio and farms that perpetuate the centuries-old bond between land, work, and beauty.
Here, the view embraces a wide horizon, the light changes with the hour, and the city lingers in the background, like a familiar yet distant presence. A place where Tuscany reveals itself in its purest form: luminous, discreet, alive.
