Accessible by private road which ends
at the property, Villa Silvestrini is a large villa which sits on a magnificent
hilltop just outside the medieval city of Pistoia, one of the ten provinces
of Tuscany. The property offers breathtaking views southwards across the
city plain as far as Florence, where the Duomo, on a clear day, is visible
in the distance. The same spectacular views may be enjoyed from the new
swimming pool, which is terraced in the hillside and is situated just a
few steps from the villa. From the distance on the opposite side of the
property, the gentle current of the river below can sometimes be heard. |
| From the absolutely
peaceful terrace, which overlooks the medieval architecture of Pistoia
and its beautiful countryside dotted by olive trees, it is difficult
to imagine that the splendid city of Pistoia is reachable in just
three minutes by easy accessible roads without the hassle of narrow,
dusty, or endless country roads. |

Our villa is set among
vineyards, olive groves (we take pride in the production of our own
fine olive oil and wine) and mature century old oak trees which provide
a welcome shade from the sun. Also the deep set walls of the villa
help in keeping our guests cool in summer. |

I live in the country house next to the villa and are always available
to offer advice and any needed assistance. |
