Wonderful Villa in the heart of Florence hills
Description
Villa Incontri: A Noble Florentine Legacy
Nestled in the lush hills of Careggi, just moments from the historic centre of Florence, **Villa Incontri** offers an enchanting blend of Renaissance history and natural beauty. This magnificent estate has served as a prestigious residence for centuries, its main structure featuring ancient **15th and 16th-century origins** that shine through its walls, despite subsequent enrichments and additions.
The Villa’s name is inextricably linked to the **Marquis Incontri family**, originally from Volterra, who established the Florentine branch of their nobility here. The property, once an ancient villa between Careggi and Montughi, was formally acquired by Giovanni di Iacopo Antonio Incontri in the late 18th century, and the lane was eventually named after the family. Today, the villa remains the historic residence of the Incontri Marquises, who continue to welcome guests, sharing the warmth and history of their family legacy.
Set within an extensive **park of 8 hectares**, the grounds retain the noble and bucolic character of the early 19th century, featuring centuries-old trees, a serene olive grove with 600 plants, and charming gardens.
Villa Incontri provides a truly unique and evocative backdrop for weddings and events. Guests can celebrate amidst a setting rich in **Florentine aristocracy and timeless elegance**, offering both grand indoor halls and expansive outdoor spaces, including terraces and the enchanting Fairy Park. Choosing Villa Incontri means immersing your special day in a storied past, with the convenience of being only a short distance from the heart of Florence.
