The residence is surrounded by its magnificent park, offering a daily experience of pure pleasure and comfort in a reserved urban setting.
The villa's park is a remarkable example of an 18th-century Italian garden, characterized by fine architectural and botanical elements, offering an ambience of tranquility and historical beauty. The entrance to the villa is through a large wooden doorway leading to a graceful hallway. From here, a solemn stone staircase, lit by a large skylight, leads to the upper floors. The restored walls and the refined painted iron railing enhance the historic character of the building.

The apartment is spread over a single floor, presenting a large living area and a sleeping area, perfectly symmetrical and harmonious. The central corridor acts as a junction between the two areas, with the living area facing west and the sleeping area facing east, ensuring optimal exposure. The sleeping area includes two double bedrooms, both with en suite bathrooms; the master bedroom is decorated both on the ceiling and floor. The living area consists of a kitchen with utility room, a living room with decorated ceilings, and a further bathroom. There is also a third room that can be used as a study or bedroom. All the rooms enjoy great brightness thanks to the generous openings, creating a quiet atmosphere.
The apartment has a cellar, too.

The apartment's finishes reflect the attention to detail and respect for the history of the villa. The terracotta floors are original, decorated in some rooms; the fixtures, well restored with double glazing, preserve the original ironwork; the ceilings are decorated with stencils and stylized floral motifs.

The villa, originally a small tower dating back to the 1600s, was enlarged over the centuries to become the main residence in the 1800s and now houses six apartments. Each unit has been renovated with attention to detail, maintaining historical features and adding modern comforts. Staircases and portals in pietra serena, terracotta floors, frescoed ceilings and double-glazed windows are just some of the elements that show the villa’s historical richness.
