Villa Sant Agnese
|
convent-monastery -
Via Madonna del Bagno 108 - 52043 Castiglion Fiorentino (AR) - Location map |
Founded by the aristocratic Lombradi family of Arezzo, the enchanting “Villa Sant’Agnese” is set among the walls of an ancient convent of the ‘Zoccolanti’, on the outskirts of Castiglion Fiorentino, a characteristic Tuscan town between Arezzo and Cortona, which has been inhabited since the Etruscan époque and wasthe stage for numerous medieval battles.
The historical residence, where Sant’Agnese lived in the 13th century and started the convent with the order of Santa Chiara of Assisi, is immersed in the quiet of secular olive and cypress trees on the hills dominating the ‘Val di Chiana’.
The building, written into Tuscany Region’s album of honour, is distinguished by its magnificent double lodgings with semi-circular arches.
The antique furniture inside create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and give the finishing touch to this exceptional residence which has been lovingly restored under the supervision of the ‘Belle Arti’ (listed buildings’ authority).
The spacious 200sm apartment has two large double bedrooms, each with loft with an additional bed and bathroom, a well-equipped modern kitchen, and a suggestive private open gallery/terrace, the perfect scenario for romantic candle-lit dinners.
The beautiful garden, ideal for relaxing or for a barbecue under the starry sky, frames the swimming pool with hydro-massage on Roman scale. Lastly, sports-enthusiasts will find tennis courts at only 500 metres away.
