In a sleepy town in Tuscany, in the heart of Certaldo Alto, one of the most evocative medieval villages in the Tuscan countryside, known and loved by tourists from all over the world not only for its aesthetic and structural peculiarities but also for being the birthplace of Giovanni Boccaccio, we offer for sale a characteristic “corner of architecture” that directly overlooks Palazzo Pretorio, the most representative monument of Certaldo, in which we can admire 15th and 16th century frescoes

Certaldo Alto is a charming walled Medieval town, home to winding cobbled streets, picturesque churches, family run restaurants, and sprawling views of the verdant Tuscan countryside

this breathtaking apartment open space is a unique find. Set in a former palazzo, it boasts classical Tuscan features like high ceilings, traditional archways, and a grand red brick exterior. Neutral colours inside contrast with the spectacular frescoed walls. We love the Rococo-style cherub fresco above the bed, lending the room a celestial aura. There is plenty of space to relax in the large open plan living area, and the fully stocked kitchen is perfect for practising your Italian home cooking.

The house is on the ground floor and has an independent entrance from the main street and another independent entrance from the condominium courtyard with a private parking space…parking space is a rarity in Certaldo Alto.

While you are there, be sure to sample some of the excellent wines from the region. After a day of exploring, kick back on the sofa in your opulent living room, before retreating to the serene calm of the bedroom for a perfect night’s sleep. With its romantic setting and unbeatable location, this would be the perfect getaway for couples.

The train station is only a 10-minute walk from the apartment, thanks to a modern funicular railway that connects the centre of Certaldo to the upper and historic part of the town, where our property is located. Free parking for cars is just outside the walls of the Borgo, only a two-minute walk away.

Major art cities such as Siena and Florence can be reached in less than an hour, while the picturesque San Gimignano is only 20 minutes away.

It is the ideal property for those who wish to stay in one of the most fascinating and historical villages of the Val d’Elsa and for those who wish to easily reach the most important cities, but also for those who wish to rent it on a weekly basis given its excellent location and the functionality of the interior spaces.

The nearest airport is in Florence, 50 minutes away

What’s more, you can live in it right from the start as it is sold fully furnished… turnkey!
