"Abitare la storia"
"When as children we lived in the countryside and trampled the grass in the meadows, slept in the woods, surprised the bird in the nest and drunk the living and running waters in the jumelles, we were perfumed with poetry for all the years that remain ".
MF Sauvage, Moral and literary thoughts, 1876 (posthumously)
Fiesole - From Pian di San Bartolo a wild road descends to the right down the farms, leading to two splendid villas. This charming apartment is located in one of these, Il Palagio di Basciano - a charming sixteenth-century residence, where you can still breathe the harmony of the courtyard of the country house that belonged to the Filippo del Sesto di Borgo family in the early fifteenth century. Once inside, you really have the feeling of living in history, with the beauty of peasant traditions (thanks to the millstone of the mill) and the elegance of the structure. From the living area you enter the private garden, with its pergola that is the setting for outdoor moments. The pride of the courtyard but above all the splendid condominium park: a whirlwind of vegetation and blooms that immerses us completely in nature and makes the city seem so far away when, paradoxically, we are only 5 minutes from Caldine and about 20 minutes from Piazza della Libertà.
