In the historic center of Florence, in the quiet neighborhood of San Frediano a short distance from Piazza del Carmine, a renovated townhouse with private garden for sale. The property, a lovely Art Nouveau building, has been recently renovated and offers four bedrooms, a bright living area and a small independent gym. The exclusive garden of 40 sqm is a little piece of paradise in the heart of Florence.
The property is perfect as a private home for those who want to live in the historic center of Florence, but it also lends itself very well as an accommodation business: In fact, the current owners rent the property to tourists and vacationers with excellent results.
Services are all available nearby, and the San Frediano neighborhood remains one of the most authentic places in Florence, with a smaller influx of tourists and therefore more tranquility and privacy. Leaving Florence, one can reach in less than two hours most of the historic cities of Tuscany (Greve in Chianti, Colle di Val d’Elsa, San Gimignano, Arezzo, Siena...).
Description of the property
The townhouse (210 sqm – 2,260 sqft, 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms) is on three floors, connected by an internal staircase. Entering the ground floor from the street, one finds oneself in a small entrance hall that leads to a small service bathroom under the staircase and to the living area consisting of a large double sitting room with dining area and kitchen. From here one exits to the back garden, complete with a lovely paved patio where one can have al fresco dinners in summer.
Going up to the first floor leads to the sleeping area of the house, consisting of four spacious bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. One of the rooms features a small private terrace overlooking the garden. In the hallway is a small closet.
Going up further, you reach the attic, consisting of three storage rooms plus the technical room for the boiler and facilities.
The house was entirely renovated in 2020 paying particular attention to energy efficiency: With the occasion it was decided to supplement the classic natural gas system (which is used only in the production of domestic hot water) with a high-performance heat pump that allowed to reach the A2 level of the new energy classification.
The private garden (40 sqm – 430 sqft) is enclosed by walls on the two long sides and two buildings on the short sides. Just outside the kitchen is a comfortable patio with a shade awning for outdoor dining and breakfasts, while the green is crossed by three paved walkways leading to the outbuilding. Two fountains, climbing plants and roses decorate the whole.
Crossing the garden leads to a small dependance (28 sqm – 301 sqft, 1 bathroom), currently used as a gym/fitness area with a bathroom and dressing room.
