Full Description


In the heart of the beautiful old village of Vicopisano, amongst the ancient towers, is this wonderful two bed, fully restored, retaining all the character and charm of the old building.

On the second floor of an ancient building in the fifteenth century piazza this lovely property is in the heart of Vicopisano. Full of rustic charm, the apartment is 100 sqm. From the entrance hall on the right is a built-in kitchen with a table and chairs, whilst on the left is a large living room with ancient brick arches and wonderful view over the rooftops. There are beautiful heavy wooden beams, terracotta floors and exposed stone and brick walls. A hallway with large cupboard separates the living area from the bedroom area and this gives access to a lovely terrace (10 sqm), again with views over the ancient village roof tiles.
There are two double bedrooms and a bathroom with shower.

In the bedrooms are beautiful parquet floors, there is central heating and air conditioning.

From the ground floor of the building there is the access to a pretty garden of 42 sqm, with a covered pergola, ideal for open air dining. There is public car parking close by, and being in the heart of the village, all shops and services are within easy walking distance.

Vicopisano has a warm atmosphere, is steeped in history and is one of the prettiest of the famous Tuscan villages. There are a number of coffee bars, some great restaurants and, famously, twelve medieval towers. Wandering through the narrow streets is like stepping back to the Middle Ages. The village is set between the River Arno and Mount Pisano and the history tells the story of Florentine domination. The fortress of Brunelleschi, the famous Florentine architect, the walkway del Soccorso, the old walls and abundance of towers form the very heart of the village.

Vicopisano celebrates many festivals throughout the year. The Medieval Festival which takes place on the first weekend of September is a highlight. During this weekend Vicopisano is full of medieval jousting, musicians and street theatre. In the lanes and alleys you will meet characters from ancient times, you have the opportunity to taste the spiced wine, browse among the stalls and dine among the different taverns or even at the Praetorian Palace on the occasion of the Medieval Dinner, which is served on the top of the hill.
