Most of the pictures that decorate all the rooms represent ancient and modern images of Florence realized by famous and historic illustrators like Zocchi and Alinari.
The owners' passion for trees and flowers, especially ancient roses, have made unique the garden surrounding the villa, that is full of uncommon plants. The property is also dominated by an ancient cypress, today reported as monumental tree of Italian forests. The surrounding estate includes 6 hectares.
