Elegant. Luxurious. Grand. Imposing.
If these are the qualities you want from a Tuscan escape, Torre Farfalla could be right up your street.
Located just 20 km from Florence, this massive nine-bedroom villa captures the imagination as soon as you set foot through its gated entrance.
Shuttered windows
Boasting three bright and spacious living spaces and a fully-equipped modern kitchen, this luxurious property is fit for a King (or Queen).
With its idyllic views of the open countryside, this property is ideal as a permanent residence or investment – thanks to its mature tree-lined surroundings.
Set within 23 hectares of land, three of which are cultivated with more than 300 olive trees which produce a significant annual yield, the property also benefits from 1.5 hectares of Italian-style garden around the villa.
Equipped with an above-ground swimming pool that looks perfect for a dip, the accompanying barbecue area and wood-fired oven make a great place to relax and unwind with a glass of wine (or two).
Priced at £2.9million, the picture-perfect villa is primed for use as a family retreat and a holiday let. Rents obviously vary depending on the time of year, but it could easily achieve around £5,000 for a week at the height of the holiday season.
