Formerly a hunting lodge Villa Cerretello is a superb Tuscan country villa with a perfect, secluded, hill top location. A winding, tree-lined, private country road leads to the property, which is situated within its own gated grounds and gardens. Cerretello boasts views full circle while the neighbouring hill towns of Montaione, Gambassi and Castelfiorentino are visible on the horizon. A privately owned family home, totally restored for personal use, Villa Cerretello is a highly comfortable, luxury property.
The furnishings are in an elegant, Tuscan country style with a select number of restored antique pieces.
The fittings and finishings are of the highest quality: exposed beam ceilings, old Tuscan terracotta floors, specially aged parquet flooring in all bedrooms, grès and terracotta tiled bathrooms with marble and antique wood fittings.
The colour washed walls in light pastel tones create a relaxing comfortable country feel.
