Potted plants and vines still shade the terrace from view at this former greenhouse gone glam in the Tuscan countryside. Mirrored walls toss back reflections of the paintings, jewel-toned fabrics, and crystal chandeliers that fill this open-concept home, while glass doors open to the patio. Rolling hills around the villa say “country estate,” but the city center of Florence is only 18 kilometers away.

Listen to the waterfall burble as you stretch out on a lounger by the saltwater pool, play on the lawn, or steal away to the shade of the covered outdoor living area. Savor the complimentary fresh fruit and bottle of wine around the alfresco dining table for 6 before heating up the barbecue for dinner with sunset views.

Stone walls and a tiled roof still give the impression of a humble greenhouse, but inside, the villa shows off its style in color, texture, and artwork. The L-shaped living room is open to the 2 upstairs bedrooms for an airy feel, and mirrors and molding pair up to make the dining area feel both spacious and elegant. There’s also a marble-topped breakfast area in the fully equipped kitchen.

Get a taste of Italian village life in nearby San Donato in Collina, where you can pick up a coffee or groceries; drive to the town of Bagno a Ripoli for more restaurant options; and dive into the sights and excitement of the city in Florence, 18 kilometers away.
