Description

The villa is a carefully renovated peasant house located in Borgo San Lorenzo (Florence), which is considered the capital of Mugello. Founded by the Romans, in the past Borgo San Lorenzo hosted an agricultural market and was the theatre of the struggles between Guelphs and Ghibellines. Here, in the early 20th century, the Chini brothers founded Fornaci di San Lorenzo, a famous factory producing chinaware.

The villa has a stunning view over the Mugello hills and the surrounding countryside.
