Nestled in the serene Mugello valley, Villa Stefania holds a rich heritage dating back to the 14th century when it was under the ownership of the Church. Situated at an elevation of 350 meters above sea level, the villa is surrounded by 230 hectares of farmland.
Preserving its historical charm, the villa features traditional elements such as beamed ceilings and terracotta-tiled floors. Each room is elegantly furnished with period furniture and adorned with precious paintings and prints. Guests are treated to panoramic views of the valley below from the balconies and windows of the villa.
Enclosed within a park, and complete with a chapel and a majestic grove of century-old trees, the outdoor area consists of a swimming pool and a portico furnished with a table and chairs for al fresco dining.
Adjacent to the villa, but maintaining its privacy, is a farmhouse divided into three separate apartments. While the caretaker resides in one of the apartments, the remaining two apartments are predominantly rented for long-term stays, each with its own private entrance.
