A majestic luxury villa with 600 years of history located in the countryside near Florence, perfect for a unique and charming retreat with family and friends.
Set in a dominant position over the hills near Florence, at a 30-minute driving distance from the city, Palazzo Scopeti is a perfect base to discover the region. Easy day trips can be organised to explore the Chianti wine region and visit its many picturesque villages. Other notorious Tuscan destinations such as Siena, Lucca and Pisa are less than two hours away.
Villa I Busini, an exceptional Early Renaissance estate dating back to 1423, is located just 30 minutes from Florence in the heart of Chianti, Tuscany. This majestic Peruzzi Medici villa is steeped in history, with original features such as hand-painted walls, 17 working fireplaces, and reclaimed period floors that preserve its 600-year legacy. The villa is set within a seven-acre park surrounded by a 15th-century stone wall, offering privacy and tranquility in an idyllic countryside setting. Owned by a passionate film producer who celebrates the Medieval period, the villa is a tribute to the women of that era, with dramatic artworks throughout the property.
The villa's stunning grounds include an enchanting Italian-style garden, a forest, vineyards, and olive groves, all offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Tuscan landscape. The outdoor amenities include a tennis court, a bocce court, and a striking infinity pool, which can be heated, located next to a former Limonaia. The villa's park is particularly special during the wine harvest season, providing an authentic Tuscan experience. For intimate events, the Limonaia can accommodate up to 20 guests and an additional number can be accommodated outdoors, making it a perfect venue for small gatherings such as weddings or vow renewals. A temple in the garden offers a serene space for ceremonies or moments of reflection.
Inside, Villa I Busini is a haven of luxury and comfort. The villa boasts five elegant salons, two dining rooms, a chapel, and a library, all decorated with a combination of original craftsmanship and modern luxury. With a dedicated staff of a chef, butlers, maids, and other attendants, the villa ensures every aspect of your stay is meticulously cared for. Luxury touches include complimentary tea, coffee, soft drinks, and water, as well as bespoke meal experiences with elaborate lighting and fresh flowers. The property also offers a private gym, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking both relaxation and indulgence.
