Villa Falco Reale 31, Tuscany, Italy

Villa Falco Reale is a spectacular 15th century Medicean villa, situated among the rolling hills of Vicchio, in the Mugello area.
It was built by the Florentine noble Bartoli family (which were closely associated with the Medici family). Originally architected for territorial defensive purposes, the property has been transformed over the centuries into an elegant yet imposing country residence, and was used primarily as a hunting lodge, due to the particular conformation of the surrounding territory.
Over the centuries the villa became the property of various illustrious Tuscan nobles, the Baldocci, the Papiani, the Spinelli and there are still some wonderful stone family stems to be seen on the facade of the villa today
The property is located inside the surrounded wall and nestled in a wonderful, large park with century-old trees, greenery and flowers, where you can stroll peacefully.
At a lower level of the park, close to the surrounded wall, there is a delightful, private swimming pool, equipped with parasols, sunbeds and breakfast tables, perfect for sipping a good cold drink on summer days. From the pool you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Mugello valley.
The villa also has a warning and defense military tower, and a beautiful terrace with a dining table for 32 people and a barbecue, ideal for pleasant alfresco meals.
Among the outdoor areas you will also find: a Carriage Museum and a vegetable garden (both freely accessible to the guests); a lovely consecrated chapel; a romantic well (dating back to the 16th century); an old kiln under restructuring (where the bricks were baked and used for the construction of the external wall of the villa, which is majestic and imposing).
The villa is an ideal place to host every type of events (private functions, parties, business conferences, etc.).
The property also includes highly productive agricultural land (about 27 hectars).
