Villa For Sale in Tuscany with views of Florence.

[@wernerdanler2742]

My god! That is one of the most fantastic villas I have ever seen. I love what those designers you mentioned, Senior what's their names lol, Did with the interior. I have never seen pine trees like that. They looked like giant dandelion puff balls. The exterior and the cantina are so rustic to contrast with the 20th century interiors. If I had the money I'd buy it just based on your excellent video sir!

[@italianproperty]

Thank you so much Werner, loved your comment. Best regards, Nick.

[@ElizabethE1267]

I love your enthusiasm. Say charming all you want. It’s a kick.

[@alaindufort5394]

But ... ... You ARE charming Nick 🙂 🙏🏾 🙂

[@risalangdon9883]

The location and grounds are lovely. However, the house resembles more of a prison interior vibe. Not at all a fan of this one. Very institutional style inside.

[@artmichel5572]

I’ve been to Firenze, studied Firenze and I must say..NOPE to this property. Too new of a feel. I prefer the “old” look and feel of that gorgeous city..Michelangelo’s city.

[@bearb888]

I see some potential with this property. Definitely not my style inside. Kitchen would need to be brought up. Too many small rooms. Would open up some walls. Also update the bathrooms and change the interior looks to a more traditional Tuscan style. I realize the original design was a modern architectural look but unfortunately modern "styles" soon become unmodern. Traditional is timeless. The property itself does have great potential for the right buyer. BTW - that old cellar that you walked through was awesome - a potential wine cellar.

[@lizmasi9918]

As a designer I would have reissued some of the rooms as proper bedrooms and such. To many offices and not enough real living spaces to show the possibilities. Also I have issues with all the staircases. The one in the entry should be a true straight stairs for ease of moving furniture upstairs. The courtyard should have furniture in it also. It is clear these people do not spend any time in the gardens. Needs a major clean up and planting. I also don't like the kitchen so far away from the living room. Is it worth 2.6 euros? I'm not sure.

[@italianproperty]

Hi Liz, I enjoyed reading your comment, thank you. Best wishes, Nick.

[@magsstewart5488]

The entire feel of the place would be improved by having grand, old wood doors instead of those unappealing slick metal doors. However, I very much appreciate the security of the steel doors.

[@carolynkennedy7772]

Well, ummmmmmmmmmm...yeah. Was that a basket of...ears (in the first dining room, mounted on the large piece of artwork)??? JK!!! I'm just way too much of a traditionalist for this property. Thanks again for a great tour, Nick. Take care! :)

[@sueczerniak1266]

My favourite part was the cantina (I'd live in there)! and when you mentioned it had been built in the 11th century my heart sank to think what they'd done upstairs. The design and decor is quite polarising. It felt like too much of a nod to industrial commercial and not a home for living, in my view. But someone's going to love it. Such diversity. I guess I must be more of a traditionalist than I thought when it comes to Italian properties. But your work is always appreciated Nick. You are charming!

[@italianproperty]

Thank you Sue. 🙏 Best wishes, Nick.

[@zuzanatauvinkl5195]

I could not agree more

[@giftedobserver]

I agree!

[@jacobseal]

Loved the video, as always. You do a great job with these. We watch every week. I didn't like anything about this house except the view. Someone with very modern tastes will probably love it.

[@brianfilkowski]

Happy Saturday! I expected to see a leprechaun jump out of a closet. To me, as usual, I vision a boutique inn with the killer cantina dining room/bar and outdoor dining terrace. Plenty of bedrooms with bathrooms and even the ability to have small conference rooms for a chic business meeting retreat. Andy Warhol and Peter Max mentioned in the same video definitely sets the decor tone, giving charming a rest. As much as I love charming and look forward to its return. What I could make in that kitchen…….wow. Thank you! Great property.

[@jonathanwalker1002]

Another fabulous property! Thank YOU for taking us thru these wonderful places that we could not otherwise see or know about! Bravo!

there's NOTHING wrong in saying charming .. loved this house .. because this house IS charming and lovely .

[@raysville7256]

This is sublime example of a 21st century pairing with an ancient site, a bravura performance!

[@j.p.9295]

Charming !

[@farmerdeb2863]

Wow! This has been the best Italian property i have seen so far on your channel! Not a thing about it i would think of changing. Oh, by the way, this is YOUR channel, you should be able to say whatever word you choose to describe what ever you see!! People dont like it, they can go watch another channel. I think it is very british to say "charming" or "fantastic" or even "brilliant"! (I watched a lot of Harry Potter😁😄) Love your channel they way it is, dont change a thing!

[@italianproperty]

Thank you. N 🙏

[@joegrima6852]

Hello Nick, I want to thank you for your lovely videos and home tours, as a lover of history, I appreciate the time you take to point out historical details to a property and being a lover of trees and landscapes, I have found a kindred soul. I love your use of superlatives, and your sense of humour warms the heart. Keep up the good work, be your delightful, expressive self. Please do not change. We love you as you are. Good travels, Anita

[@italianproperty]

Thank you so much Anita. 🙏 Best wishes, Nick.

[@lynnewwg1wga754]

this is not the way I imagine living in Tuscany, I prefer old charm from our ancestors

[@brigitterehfeldt2018]

Hello Nick, what a property, different than what you usually present, but very impressive. I‘d be willing to make things a little cozier, but......where‘s my million:-). Another great presentation from you, thank you!

[@pkuta100]

strangely cold

[@andreagibson7355]

I love the old brick bottom floor, would make a great wine cellar and sitting room. Just gorgeous!

[@loismanzi2442]

It has the look and feel of an office building . So much wasted space not home like.Love the views. Definitely not charming but you are. Love all you do showing us so Many interesting and unique properties with so much joy ! Thankyou so much😘

[@italianproperty]

I really appreciate your comment Lois. Thank you. Best wishes, Nick.

[@eugeniabuitron172]

Not my cup of tea... to industrial and cold looking. No warmth in this home and the kitchen in the basement?? The land is beautiful though.. thank you for the tour!

[@kbdrinkard]

So many sweet little spots. Love the grounds, and that underground storage area or whatever it’s called is absolutely amazing. Beautiful property, Nick! Thank you for sharing with us.

[@femalism1715]

The kitchen is fantastic. The rest of the house is too modern for my taste. It seems a shame to restore such a large, historical villa and turn it into an ultra-modern caricature. Just no.

[@kindaclassykindachola]

It's chic and industrial and still has that Tuscany feel. I love it ❣️🇮🇹 Thank you for sharing, friend.

[@italianproperty]

Thank you Kinda. Best wishes, Nick.

[@houseonahill4893]

[@patriciabrawner3717]

Another fascinating one take property tour. The design was awesome, but too modern for my personal taste, but that being said,it was amazing that they incorporated some of the old with the new. The ceilings & the cantinas, not sure if I used the right word,but leaving them intact was just gorgeous. The kitchen was one I would love to prepare meals. I loved the courtyard & even the glass corridor with the columns. Very unusual & beautiful. Thanks for showing & have a great weekend.

[@italianproperty]

Thank you Patricia, you too. Best wishes, Nick.

[@marinadean5706]

What's wrong with "charming"? During Last week's propperty rummaga, every time you said charming, I felt compelled to say "adorable", as the whole propperty was just sooo adorable! So, just "charming" away. I won't mind❤️

[@italianproperty]

🙏 😊 Nick.

[@yssubed2]

Design for designs sake, and worthy of a magazine spread. On the other hand, so cold and sterile that not even centuries of history can overcome. I suppose if you have full time staff (at least a cook and gardener) it wouldn’t matter how impractical it is. But clearly the current owners don’t. The property looks pretty scruffy and unkempt.

[@danstoye3902]

Finally, a house where I can put my Jean-Michael Basquiat collection, wait I don't have a JMB collection, hmm perhaps some Art Deco, nope, I know I do have some bronze bookends, unfortunately they are rather small. Thanks for describing the view from the not 70's windows, too bad we didn't get to see it. No expense spared on the servant's quarters, pallet gates and table. Loved the Orientals and the horse/wine cellar. Interesting 2 hectares and no pool. Hey Nick, have you ever visited Fiesole, fantastic Etruscan (later Roman) town with an amphitheater where on a good day you will be the only one sitting on the ancient seats. If you climb the steep path to the erstwhile monastery, you have an incredible vista of Florence, great after the sun sets too!

[@italianproperty]

Hi Dan, Thanks for your comment. I've never been to the town, but I know it's beautiful. Best wishes, Nick.

[@ewartwilliams8248]

Great house Nick, but to me, for that type of architecture to work it needs to be pristine, clean and crisp and it wasn’t… definitely in need of some TLC.

[@susanharris5926]

The staircase is totally at odds with the wooden ceiling. The indoor wall colors are very bland for Tuscany. I would not choose to use the rooms as the owner has. It is, It is, however, a great property with a blank canvas.

[@lindadoran8076]

I love all the light coming in and love the doors. The tower could be my hidey spot with lots of books. Move the kitchen up to the light and I would love it. Overall not my usual style but I can appreciate the quality and the craftsmanship. Beautiful home Nick, thank you.

[@italianproperty]

Thank you Linda. Best wishes, Nick.

[@hazelmaciver4076]

Stunning Nick....absolutely stunning !!! Cant wait to see you top this one, thank you for brightening my evening.

[@damiendoyle9948]

Very beautifully done but not to my tastes. I'm an old romantic that loves the rustic side of Italian architecture.

[@alaindufort5394]

Yes, the first bathroom IS charming Nick 🙂 ... ... Particularly the plant 🍀☘️🍀

[@colleenmayes1537]

That type of weather always makes me want to bake bread ! Sadly, not enough days like that in Texas.

[@jamesbarr2357]

Buongiorno Nick. I'll take all the hard furnishings, light fittings, ceilings and original stone window surrounds but the house --- umh --- it has an 'institutiona'l feel. For me, a house of this age without monumental, walk-in fireplaces, shuttered windows and terra cotta floors is not a home. However, it could be tailor-made for a discreet operation like a HNW family law office. I had a price of 2.5 million before you released the 'asking'. A wonderful rummage, but it's a 'no' from me 😎. Arriba!

[@italianproperty]

Thanks James for your comment, I enjoyed reading it. Best wishes, Nick.

[@milalewis983]

It is truly magnificent. Loved everything about it... and those doors! Wow. Some of the interior architectural elements reminded me a little of Corbusier's Villa Savoye... like the long rectangular windows on the upper floors and spiral staircases. Way beyond my budget but worth every Euro.

[@tobagobum]

Reminded me of Mies Van der Rohe and that makes think of the "industrial era" architecture in the '60s...

[@yssubed2]

Those doors - they remind me of doors you find in European public toilets,….

[@italianproperty]

I agree, I absolutely adore Corbusier. Great comment Mila. Best wishes, Nick.

[@dawnnicholson9675]

Very interesting property.. So much space. I'm definitely more for traditional farmhouse style.. All that steel I would have to replace with lovely wood. The surrounding land and space outside I loved..those views are beautiful. Loved that tree too Nick.. Thanks for sharing .

[@italianproperty]

Thank you Dawn. Best wishes, Nick.

[@patreonsage5169]

Absolutely love the education I am getting about Tuscany, Florence, Umbria and what is possible and available. True, these residential experiences are without social context, but Florence? The art! The ART. And so much natural beauty. Nick, this is how I relax at the end of difficult days. Immersion relaxation therapy as a Imagine being your camera woman!

[@karenstanislaw8912]

Each week another *planet - this one, *ancient AND '80's themed , with its own catacombe (lol) ! Agree - I.Q. all around high - handsome, dignified, dynamic place. -Would be just as fascinating (although I know impossible) to get a post script video as to who purchases, ultimately, and how they honor the components and tenor, or not. Nick, these places *breathe, and would be worthy of full script as to their destinies. Great thanks, until next trip through Italian cosmos.

Another marvelous property and the Memphis style works wonderful. Amazing tour as always!!

[@nicven9948]

lovely house, HUGE! and I love the views of the countryside and Florence in the distance. It's obviously an old countryside house, but I don't quite fancy what was done with it in terms of all the 'modern' steel and glass; it gives it a rather factory feeling.

All I could think about during the tour was how much knowledge and history are wrapped up in this property. Imagine what could be learned if someone did a deep dive and researched this property's history and the family's who built and worked this property. Just beautiful!!

[@jamiebowman1819]

If anybody is complaining that you say charming often often it's because they are Americans they do not understand

[@ArthurDentZaphodBeeb]

Not my cup of tea. Very odd to have the kitchen in the basement. Seems the house design more revolved around running a business than a home. Quite sterile.

[@dawnpeterson1269]

Loved the lower ceiling, loved the underground tunnel. Wasn't my cup of tea, don't care for modern

Omg how did I miss this one?! FANTASTIC. Yes I'm a big Sostass and Memphis fan and It's clear from all tge italian design classics everywhere so are the owners. This is the perfect peaceful space for any real artlover. As a matter of fact I could imagine this bought by an art foundation, it would accomodate sculpture, paintings and multimedia pieces, offices and flexible reception areas, café offering light lunch and wine with a spectacular view of Florence and the hills, managers flat and artist residence workshop plus guestrooms. Virtuallt no changes needed at all to convert this into an epic cuktural hub spitting distance from Florence. Oh gee, If that as where 26 again and fiercely resourceful! I usually don't like spiral staircases at all, but these are everything, Madon'! (excuse my Napolitano) Living there? Yeah that's gotta be kinda nice. Not too shabby indeed. Thanks for sharing this really unique piece of modern art of ancient meets modern Italy. Grazie Nick. 😍

[@italianproperty]

❤️ 😊 🙏 Nick.

[@missingseattle523]

Great video, great home but not in anyway Memphis style. Yes great property and lovely home but the architectural elements are Post Modern. “Memphis Design Style (1981 - 1987) takes elements from Art Deco of the 20s, Kitsch of the 50s and Pop Art of the 60s. The Memphis “look” can be described by some as a marriage between Late Modern and Ikea while others would describe it as a shot gun wedding between Bauhaus and Fisher Price.” I have photos but cannot paste them here. This home is Post Modern. It may have been renovated between 81 -87 and it is in Italy but it is not Memphis Style

[@italianproperty]

Really enjoyed reading your comment. Love the Bauhaus - Fisher Price combo. I’ll go for the Post Modern. Thank you. Best wishes, Nick.

[@cherylberk4593]

Well done, Nick. I just found this post. Was this a corporate house? As I live in South Florida there are plenty of high end homes with this look circa 1980. Of course, none have the history and CHARM of this one. Did I miss the pool? Speak from experience that while initially visually stunning, It is hard to live in. Eventually, you want to hang curtains! I admire the aesthetic, the mix of the very old (which is timeless), with the minimalist.

[@italianproperty]

Wow, finally, really enjoyed reading your comment. No pool, but enough space to put on in. Best wishes, Nick. 🙏
