Property Description

VILLA IL GUARDIANO- RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE

Villa Il Guardiano is nestled in the Tuscan hillside covered by an olive grove at 350 meters above sea level in a panoramic position showcasing the town of Castiglion Fiorentino which is only 2 km away. This imposing stone structure was built in the 1700 on top of a military outpost at the feet of the D’Ernia Castle by a noble family who used it as a country home. In 1996, it was restructured and while preserving the exterior of the original building, the interior was divided into two independent apartments.
