Villa Rufino
Enjoy
the essence of fine living at a luxury villa in Pistoia,
Tuscany. Structured on a huge hilltop, the villa overlooks
the plain which evolves from the medieval city of Pistoia,
1 ½ kilometer away as far as Florence. In keeping
up with trends and exceeding expectations, the recently
restored holiday luxury villa dates back to the late
18th century. Ranging over three levels, the restoration
of this beautiful luxury villa has been adhered right
to the last detail, in keeping with its original structure
and style. The villa features original valuable antique
furnishings, as well as drawings, paintings and numerous
family heirlooms that decorate the rooms including the
5 large bedrooms. Equipped with the latest amenities,
the villa is furnished with impeccable and tasteful
furnishings and is the perfect destination as a holiday
villa. The spacious and bright interiors feature fine
old exposed beams and rafters, original polished parquet
floors and terracotta tiled floors, French arched windows
and vaulted ceilings.
The marvelous second level of this luxury villa features
two hand painted bedrooms whose windows are created
to resemble exquisite framed paintings delight the senses.
The terrace fenced with old wrought iron railings, is
accessible from the well furnished living room and the
study via the vaulted French windows. The lovely terrace
opens out a panorama that overlooks the swimming pool
and the garden below that is shaded by a big lime tree
and a grove of high laurels creating shadow and light
with sunbeams. The outdoor area provides a built-in
grill and offers shady sitting areas to enjoy a drink
or a meal that helps to keep a watchful eye over the
children who splash around in the swimming pool.
Ground Floor: The ground
opens out to the entrance, a big separate Kitchen, a
Study, a large and comfortable Dining/Living Room, a
convenient Cellar/Utility Room and a built-in Closet.
The Terrace overlooks the city and its surroundings.
First Floor: The first
floor has lovely 2 Twin Bedrooms, 1 Double Bedroom,
1 Large Bathroom (Sala da bagno) with shower and 1 WC.
Second Floor: The second
floor has 1 Twin Bedroom, 1 Double Bedroom, 1 Large
Bathroom (Sala da bagno) with shower and 1 Bathroom
with shower.
This luxury villa offers amazing views southwards across
the city plain as far as Florence, where the Duomo,
on a clear day, is visible in the distance. The same
spectacular views may be enjoyed from the new swimming
pool, which is excitingly terraced in the hillside and
is situated just a few steps from the villa. From the
distance on the opposite side of the villa, the gentle
current of the river below can sometimes be heard.
While the guests take in the beauty of the surroundings
from the absolutely peaceful terrace, which overlooks
the medieval architecture of Pistoia and its beautiful
countryside dotted by olive trees, it is difficult to
imagine that the splendid city of Pistoia is reachable
in just three minutes by easy accessible roads without
the hassle of narrow, dusty, or endless country roads.
