It is situated in a protected and peaceful area of more than 20 hectares, just outside of the centre of Florence, at the foot of the hill of Settignano, in a marvellous environment, surrounded by meadows and olive groves.
Unique, historical and very chic. The Chapel was built in the 17th century and restored in neoclassical style. Now is an apartment offering a unique historic experience! How many rental house bedrooms have a frescoed ceiling, with the back-to-back moons of the Strozzi topped by a 12-pointed crown, set on a fluffy cloud against a blue sky?
The sitting room, where the nobles originally followed mass from behind the richly carved screen (it's still there - check out the bookshelves in the sitting room!), is comfortable and elegantly furnished with a settee and two armchairs. The room is divided by a wide arch, with the little dining table across from the sitting room. Nothing could be more perfect for a romantic candlelit dinner. The kitchen is tiny but every bit as beautifully formed as the rest of the apartment.
The Chapel offers a remarkable number of amenities: air-conditioning, CD-stereo, DVD-player, free Internet wifi access, huge garden, mini-pool for your relax, BBQ, parking inside the property, electronic entrance gate to the estate. In the living room you will find art books, travel magazines, city maps, museum and restaurant guides.
The Chapel has a wonderful atmosphere. It is particularly suitable for a couple looking for a refined cultural experience, and who want to stay in a unique historic place.
