Description
Built between the 16th and 18th centuries, Apartment Adelaide has been completely renovated and updated by the current owner and a young architect. This beautiful and unique home has been personally furnished and decorated with a perfect mix of modern taste and tradition, with a touch of high tech design, and a shoutout to the hip \'70\'s. Adelaide is located in the picturesque town of Fiesole, with only an 800 meter walk to the main square, shops, and other facilities. Fully air conditioned, it consists of three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large living area with terrace overlooking the hills surrounding Florence, with access to a large, beautiful garden and a shared pool. The apartment is situated on the top floor of a classical Tuscan villa and has an independent entrance. Although the owner and his family live on the same estate, privacy is guaranteed (two other apartments are currently being rented long term).
The city center of Florence (8 km) can easily be reached by car or by bus in only 15 minutes. Fiesole is a perfect starting point not only to explore the city of Florence, but also the Chianti countryside. Siena, Lucca and the untouched Mugello countryside are less than 2 hours\' drive. In Fiesole, guests will find everything needed for a perfectly equipped vacation: grocery shops, pharmacy, cafés, restaurants, post office, bus stop, bank, and (not to be missed) the delicious Pasticceria Alcedo!
