My god! That is one of the most fantastic villas I have ever seen. I love what those designers you mentioned, Senior what's their names lol, Did with the interior. I have never seen pine trees like that. They looked like giant dandelion puff balls. The exterior and the cantina are so rustic to contrast with the 20th century interiors. If I had the money I'd buy it just based on your excellent video sir!
It has the look and feel of an office building . So much wasted space not home like.Love the views. Definitely not charming but you are. Love all you do showing us so Many interesting and unique properties with so much joy ! Thankyou so much😘
Hello Nick, I want to thank you for your lovely videos and home tours, as a lover of history, I appreciate the time you take to point out historical details to a property and being a lover of trees and landscapes, I have found a kindred soul. I love your use of superlatives, and your sense of humour warms the heart. Keep up the good work, be your delightful, expressive self. Please do not change. We love you as you are. Good travels, Anita
Happy Saturday! I expected to see a leprechaun jump out of a closet. To me, as usual, I vision a boutique inn with the killer cantina dining room/bar and outdoor dining terrace. Plenty of bedrooms with bathrooms and even the ability to have small conference rooms for a chic business meeting retreat. Andy Warhol and Peter Max mentioned in the same video definitely sets the decor tone, giving charming a rest. As much as I love charming and look forward to its return. What I could make in that kitchen…….wow. Thank you! Great property.
The first home I have seen restored in a modern way that does NOT look cold and hard but is full of warmth and character, yet still has an unclttered minimalist feel. Genius!
My favourite part was the cantina (I'd live in there)! and when you mentioned it had been built in the 11th century my heart sank to think what they'd done upstairs. The design and decor is quite polarising. It felt like too much of a nod to industrial commercial and not a home for living, in my view. But someone's going to love it. Such diversity. I guess I must be more of a traditionalist than I thought when it comes to Italian properties. But your work is always appreciated Nick. You are charming!
Loved the video, as always. You do a great job with these. We watch every week. I didn't like anything about this house except the view. Someone with very modern tastes will probably love it.
Thank You So Very Much For Sharing Beautiful Home Beautiful View And Garden Absolutely Amazing And Gorgeous I Really Love What See I Look Forward To Next Video
So many sweet little spots. Love the grounds, and that underground storage area or whatever it’s called is absolutely amazing. Beautiful property, Nick! Thank you for sharing with us.
All I could think about during the tour was how much knowledge and history are wrapped up in this property. Imagine what could be learned if someone did a deep dive and researched this property's history and the family's who built and worked this property. Just beautiful!!
Nick’s phrases bingo : Pull up, original ceiling, I mean look at that, I absolutely love it, absolutely fantastic, just amazing, absolutely phenomenal, look at the stone work, incredible. Seriously Nick this house is incredible, “I absolutely love it “!
What a charming place! 😂 Thank you, Nick for another fantastic tour. I enjoy your comments very much. The properties you share with us are lovely, but listening to you is the real treat! Cheers!💓
Hello Nick, what a property, different than what you usually present, but very impressive. I‘d be willing to make things a little cozier, but......where‘s my million:-). Another great presentation from you, thank you!
Wow! This is amazing, Nick. Loved your tour, comments and knowledge! What a house. And the trees, the view, Florence!!!! Thank you so much. We love these tours. So uplifting to see all this beauty and shown to us with such enthusiasm and joy! X
Absolutely love the education I am getting about Tuscany, Florence, Umbria and what is possible and available. True, these residential experiences are without social context, but Florence? The art! The ART. And so much natural beauty. Nick, this is how I relax at the end of difficult days. Immersion relaxation therapy as a Imagine being your camera woman!
I love all the light coming in and love the doors. The tower could be my hidey spot with lots of books. Move the kitchen up to the light and I would love it. Overall not my usual style but I can appreciate the quality and the craftsmanship. Beautiful home Nick, thank you.
I love when you say charming which is a beautifully unique comforting home! You have a great camera style feels like I'm in the home! Continue to be yourself! Such a charming realtor I can trust
Very different modernist renovation on this wonderful property! Wow, and those cantinas are so remarkable in addition to the rest of it as a whole! Nick always “wows” us 🏁💯✅
Very interesting property.. So much space. I'm definitely more for traditional farmhouse style.. All that steel I would have to replace with lovely wood. The surrounding land and space outside I loved..those views are beautiful. Loved that tree too Nick.. Thanks for sharing .
The cobination of modern an old give , to the house, a lot of caracter.Absolutly. You know it is not my favorite style bat at last I like it. I think the owner have an obsesion with dinning places and ofice desk, it have a lot. Mention apart, bathrooms, especialy room one, stunning !!!! What a bathroom, I love it. And the kitchen, is a dream come true, perfect. The cantina area have a lot of potential. The landscape view is awesome. Firenze in the horizon, beautiful. Thank you Nick, you allways show us this fresh and spectacular propertys
lovely house, HUGE! and I love the views of the countryside and Florence in the distance. It's obviously an old countryside house, but I don't quite fancy what was done with it in terms of all the 'modern' steel and glass; it gives it a rather factory feeling.
Finally, a house where I can put my Jean-Michael Basquiat collection, wait I don't have a JMB collection, hmm perhaps some Art Deco, nope, I know I do have some bronze bookends, unfortunately they are rather small. Thanks for describing the view from the not 70's windows, too bad we didn't get to see it. No expense spared on the servant's quarters, pallet gates and table. Loved the Orientals and the horse/wine cellar. Interesting 2 hectares and no pool. Hey Nick, have you ever visited Fiesole, fantastic Etruscan (later Roman) town with an amphitheater where on a good day you will be the only one sitting on the ancient seats. If you climb the steep path to the erstwhile monastery, you have an incredible vista of Florence, great after the sun sets too!
Another fascinating one take property tour. The design was awesome, but too modern for my personal taste, but that being said,it was amazing that they incorporated some of the old with the new. The ceilings & the cantinas, not sure if I used the right word,but leaving them intact was just gorgeous. The kitchen was one I would love to prepare meals. I loved the courtyard & even the glass corridor with the columns. Very unusual & beautiful. Thanks for showing & have a great weekend.
It is truly magnificent. Loved everything about it... and those doors! Wow. Some of the interior architectural elements reminded me a little of Corbusier's Villa Savoye... like the long rectangular windows on the upper floors and spiral staircases. Way beyond my budget but worth every Euro.
At certain point I was like, “where’s the most important room of a house? The kitchen! Amazing home! Not a big fan of metal features, definitely replaced it with nice comforting wood! I love the courtyard! This house has lots of potential! Nick, as soon you mentioned “Florence” is like sold! That tree is just pure love!
The entire feel of the place would be improved by having grand, old wood doors instead of those unappealing slick metal doors. However, I very much appreciate the security of the steel doors.
Love he mix of old + modern, I’m not so sure about those spiral stairs. I could see myself having an accident after a few glasses of wine, haha. It def needs alittle updates in some areas, but love the location & views! Thx for sharing Nick! Cheers Kirk
Omg how did I miss this one?! FANTASTIC. Yes I'm a big Sostass and Memphis fan and It's clear from all tge italian design classics everywhere so are the owners. This is the perfect peaceful space for any real artlover. As a matter of fact I could imagine this bought by an art foundation, it would accomodate sculpture, paintings and multimedia pieces, offices and flexible reception areas, café offering light lunch and wine with a spectacular view of Florence and the hills, managers flat and artist residence workshop plus guestrooms. Virtuallt no changes needed at all to convert this into an epic cuktural hub spitting distance from Florence. Oh gee, If that as where 26 again and fiercely resourceful! I usually don't like spiral staircases at all, but these are everything, Madon'! (excuse my Napolitano) Living there? Yeah that's gotta be kinda nice. Not too shabby indeed. Thanks for sharing this really unique piece of modern art of ancient meets modern Italy. Grazie Nick. 😍
Each week another *planet - this one, *ancient AND '80's themed , with its own catacombe (lol) ! Agree - I.Q. all around high - handsome, dignified, dynamic place. -Would be just as fascinating (although I know impossible) to get a post script video as to who purchases, ultimately, and how they honor the components and tenor, or not. Nick, these places *breathe, and would be worthy of full script as to their destinies. Great thanks, until next trip through Italian cosmos.
Simplemente fascinante... Ojalá pudiera comprar esta belleza... Me encanta la, sobriedad y el buen gusto.. El contraste y la armonía entre lo antiguo y lo moderno... Una belleza ..
This has to be one of the quirkier layouts of the videos I've watched so far, but I loved the spiral staircases, the balcony in the bedroom, the tower, and the hidden apartment you couldn't get into, but most of all, the dungeon with the restaurant kitchen and the cantina space. The best thing I can think of is to convert that space into a grand dining hall, with a table running the entire length of the room... I liked the (somewhat) modern interior, and was amazed, as you were, by the use of metal in doors (Who makes closet doors out of diamond plate???) A little late to the party on this one, but thanks, Nick! Neil
Congrats Nick on another great vid. Excited to see your channel gaining in popularity and hits. Almost 50k subscribers! That’s a testament to your engaging and informative style. All the best.
Charming ! Right, all modern, till you look up…..locking rooms with keys, steel, Hmmmmm. Kitchen is great!, old section very interesting. Great, however, my preference, is the old style, rock, wood, plaster, etc. . Thank you Nick, very interesting place.
Nick, that was an interesting property. I loved that old basement and wish more of the house had that feel. I am surprised the price is not higher due to its location. Thanks for the tour!
As a designer I would have reissued some of the rooms as proper bedrooms and such. To many offices and not enough real living spaces to show the possibilities. Also I have issues with all the staircases. The one in the entry should be a true straight stairs for ease of moving furniture upstairs. The courtyard should have furniture in it also. It is clear these people do not spend any time in the gardens. Needs a major clean up and planting. I also don't like the kitchen so far away from the living room. Is it worth 2.6 euros? I'm not sure.
Wow! This has been the best Italian property i have seen so far on your channel! Not a thing about it i would think of changing. Oh, by the way, this is YOUR channel, you should be able to say whatever word you choose to describe what ever you see!! People dont like it, they can go watch another channel. I think it is very british to say "charming" or "fantastic" or even "brilliant"! (I watched a lot of Harry Potter😁😄) Love your channel they way it is, dont change a thing!
The Tuscan cypress can live 2,000 years. Wow, metal doors everywhere, even metal shower doors. Did this home belong to a mafioso?! Wonder if properties like these come with a "tribute" attached... any idea, Nick? What a great workspace for creatives. ♡
Dare we ask the price? This is such a unique restoration, in a stunning location. Thank you for all you do to inform, educate and elevate dreams. Mike & Teresa
Buongiorno Nick. I'll take all the hard furnishings, light fittings, ceilings and original stone window surrounds but the house --- umh --- it has an 'institutiona'l feel. For me, a house of this age without monumental, walk-in fireplaces, shuttered windows and terra cotta floors is not a home. However, it could be tailor-made for a discreet operation like a HNW family law office. I had a price of 2.5 million before you released the 'asking'. A wonderful rummage, but it's a 'no' from me 😎. Arriba!
I see some potential with this property. Definitely not my style inside. Kitchen would need to be brought up. Too many small rooms. Would open up some walls. Also update the bathrooms and change the interior looks to a more traditional Tuscan style. I realize the original design was a modern architectural look but unfortunately modern "styles" soon become unmodern. Traditional is timeless. The property itself does have great potential for the right buyer. BTW - that old cellar that you walked through was awesome - a potential wine cellar.
A truly amazing property❗ Perfect property to not say charming, because I'd never use that word to describe this one. If it were charming, however, I'd be wanting to hear the word. 😍 * The covered walk/entry. * They foyer. * Those 2 towering pines. * Sooo many staircases, although how they got furniture to the upper levels is a mystery. * Creative use of space. * That tower! Wonderful office. * The dumb waiter. * The cantina! Would be an amazing wine cellar with tasting/party area. Even already has its own entrance from outside. * Professional chef's kitchen. 👌 * The views. * The courtyard, although it needs a good cleanup. * The port holes in the doors to the kitchen. Genius & creative! I will say that having kept the original doors would have added some warmth to the house and gone a long way to making it more inviting. I'd have to make changes to some things. But if I could afford 2.9m, I don't think a little reno would cause me problems. 🤣
My god! That is one of the most fantastic villas I have ever seen. I love what those designers you mentioned, Senior what's their names lol,
Did with the interior.
I have never seen pine trees like that. They looked like giant dandelion puff balls.
The exterior and the cantina are so rustic to contrast with the 20th century interiors.
If I had the money I'd buy it just based on your excellent video sir!
Thank you so much Werner, loved your comment. Best regards, Nick.
I love your enthusiasm. Say charming all you want. It’s a kick.
It has the look and feel of an office building . So much wasted space not home like.Love the views. Definitely not charming but you are. Love all you do showing us so
Many interesting and unique properties with so much joy ! Thankyou so much😘
I really appreciate your comment Lois. Thank you. Best wishes, Nick.

This is sublime example of a 21st century pairing with an ancient site, a bravura performance!
I love the old brick bottom floor, would make a great wine cellar and sitting room. Just gorgeous!
This is one of the sweetest properties you have shown us...thanks Nick

Superb property!
Quite lovely, and may I add charming. Thanks for the tour.
Very interesting property.. So much space. I'm definitely more for traditional farmhouse style.. All that steel I would have to replace with lovely wood. The surrounding land and space outside I loved..those views are beautiful. Loved that tree too Nick.. Thanks for sharing .

Thank for your comment Nic . BTW: Good name. Best wishes, Nick.
This is absolutely charming!
Very unique property. It just keeps getting better. I wanted to see you hug that 400 year old pine.
Lots of tree hugging in the future. 🙏 Nick.
Finally, a house where I can put my Jean-Michael Basquiat collection, wait I don't have a JMB collection, hmm perhaps some Art Deco, nope, I know I do have some bronze bookends, unfortunately they are rather small.

It is truly magnificent. Loved everything about it... and those doors! Wow. Some of the interior architectural elements reminded me a little of Corbusier's Villa Savoye... like the long rectangular windows on the upper floors and spiral staircases.
Way beyond my budget but worth every Euro.
Reminded me of Mies Van der Rohe and that makes think of the "industrial era" architecture in the '60s...
Those doors - they remind me of doors you find in European public toilets,….
I agree, I absolutely adore Corbusier. Great comment Mila. Best wishes, Nick.
strangely cold
Medieval Italian married modern minimalist and this is the child.
That type of weather always makes me want to bake bread ! Sadly, not enough days like that in Texas.
At certain point I was like, “where’s the most important room of a house? The kitchen!
Amazing home! Not a big fan of metal features, definitely replaced it with nice comforting wood! I love the courtyard! This house has lots of potential! Nick, as soon you mentioned “Florence” is like sold! That tree is just pure love!

Hi Susan, Thank you for your comment. Yes, It's a very expensive area. Best wishes, Nick.
Wasn't sure about this one until I saw the potential of the cellars. You could have one of the best personal wine cellars in the world in there.
As a designer I would have reissued some of the rooms as proper bedrooms and such. To many offices and not enough real living spaces to show the possibilities. Also I have issues with all the staircases. The one in the entry should be a true straight stairs for ease of moving furniture upstairs. The courtyard should have furniture in it also.

I see some potential with this property. Definitely not my style inside. Kitchen would need to be brought up. Too many small rooms. Would open up some walls. Also update the bathrooms and change the interior looks to a more traditional Tuscan style. I realize the original design was a modern architectural look but unfortunately modern "styles" soon become unmodern. Traditional is timeless. The property itself does have great potential for the right buyer. BTW - that old cellar that you walked through was awesome - a potential wine cellar.
Don’t let people change how you celebrate each space!
Thank you. 🙏 Best wishes, Nick.
A truly amazing property❗
Perfect property to not say charming, because I'd never use that word to describe this one. If it were charming, however, I'd be wanting to hear the word. 😍
* The covered walk/entry.
* They foyer.
* Those 2 towering pines.
* Sooo many staircases, although how they got furniture to the upper levels is a mystery.
* Creative use of space.
* That tower! Wonderful office.
* The dumb waiter.
* The cantina! Would be an amazing wine cellar with tasting/party area. Even already has its own entrance from outside.
* Professional chef's kitchen. 👌
* The views.
* The courtyard, although it needs a good cleanup.
* The port holes in the doors to the kitchen. Genius & creative!
I will say that having kept the original doors would have added some warmth to the house and gone a long way to making it more inviting.
I'd have to make changes to some things. But if I could afford 2.9m, I don't think a little reno would cause me problems. 🤣
Great comment Kathy. Best wishes, Nick.
My kind of space
