Property description
Poggio a Cajano is a land of history and soft hills between Florence and Pistoia. Already in the 15th century, the Medici family appreciated its strategic and agricultural value: Cosimo de' Medici acquired the first possessions, and Lorenzo the Magnificent supervised the regulation of the Ombrone River, the creation of an ideal farm in Tavola and the construction of Villa Medici, which still dominates the landscape.
The artisans who worked on the villa laid the foundation for the village, which developed not as a rural hamlet, but as a vibrant community with an urban character. Over time, the presence of the Medici court, followed by the Lorraines and Savoyards, enhanced its prosperity and artisanal traditions. Today it is an elegant residential area surrounded by hills, vineyards and olive groves, with views stretching to Florence and the Brunelleschi Dome.

The exteriors of the villa embody the restrained monumental elegance of the Tuscan Renaissance. The central building rises above the wide base and opens onto an exceptional panoramic terrace of 600 m2 with views of the Carmignano hills, Villa Medici and, in the distance, Florence. The facade is decorated with a picturesque loggia with three arches, and the side wings add architectural harmony.
The landscaped park with an area of about 3,200 m has mature trees and spacious lawns. There are 2.5 hectares of agricultural land around with an olive grove and a Carmignano DOCG vineyard (1.6 hectares). Three entrances allow you to create a large parking lot for guests. There is a private consecrated chapel with an original altar and benches on site.The villa has retained its historical charm, but requires restoration - a rare opportunity to turn it into a boutique hotel, a luxurious event venue or a prestigious residential complex.

Interiors
There are over forty rooms on more than 1,500 m2 spread over two main floors, including five formal salons, two kitchens and utility areas. Ten bedrooms and nine bathrooms provide comfort and privacy. The piano nobile has preserved beautiful frescoes, giving the interiors a sophisticated historical character. A spacious attic of about 500 m and a basement of 38 m complete the property.
