Artist Apartment with piano near Florence

This flat for four people is part of an old farmhouse complex dating back to the 1600s, overlooking the farmyard in the centre of a small village. What sets it apart is a late-19th-century piano, which occupies the second room along with the sofa bed, transforming it into a versatile space that serves as both a living room and a study.

The flat's got a bedroom with a double bed, a bathroom with a shower, and a spacious kitchen-dining-living room. The second room, with a sofa bed and a piano, can become your creative space or simply a quiet place to relax.

In the olive grove surrounding the property, you'll find a synthetic-turf tennis court. The complex also includes a vegetable garden and farm animals, part of a small food-self-sufficiency system that follows the rhythm of the seasons. A letterpress printing workshop rounds out the common areas.

The Certosa Monastery, Poggio Valicaia Park and the Galluzzo neighbourhood market are among the most beloved spots in the area. In about 15 minutes, you'll reach the art and museums of Renaissance Florence by car or bus, enjoying country living without having to give up the city.
