Historic Design Retreat Near Florence | Medieval Tower Sleeps 15
Hidden in the Tuscan hills just 20 minutes from Florence, Torre di Sopra is a rare private estate where nearly 1,000 years of history meet timeless Italian design. Set within beautiful gardens and olive groves, the estate offers complete privacy while remaining just 20 minutes from the heart of Florence.
Once a medieval watchtower, Torre di Sopra was reimagined in the 1970s by Florentine architect Bruno Sacchi, who transformed ancient stone into a remarkable home filled with light, proportion and serenity. Fourteenth-century frescoes sit alongside iconic Italian design classics and contemporary art, creating a home unlike anywhere else in Tuscany. Its unique character has long attracted architects, designers and travellers seeking an authentic Tuscan experience beyond the ordinary.
Sleeping up to 15 guests (12 in full comfort) across seven distinctive bedrooms, Torre di Sopra is ideal for extended families and groups of friends looking to slow down, reconnect and experience Tuscany beyond the ordinary. Exclusive use of the house, gardens and private saltwater pool ensures complete privacy throughout your stay.
Every room has its own character, with views across olive groves and rolling Tuscan hills. The generous dining room seats 14, while outdoor tables beneath the loggia and in the medieval courtyard invite long lunches, candlelit dinners and unforgettable evenings beneath the Tuscan sky.
Spend your days beside the private saltwater pool, wander through the gardens, enjoy table tennis, badminton or table football, or simply find a quiet corner beneath the trees with a book. As evening falls, gather around the table for chess, backgammon and classic board games before dinner beneath the stars. Superfast fibre Wi-Fi throughout the house also makes it easy to stay connected whenever you need to.
Perfectly positioned for exploring Tuscany, Florence is just 20 minutes away, while Chianti, Siena, San Gimignano, Lucca and the Tuscan coast are all within easy reach for memorable day trips. Tennis and golf are also nearby.
Check-in is on Saturdays during high season. Flexible arrival days may be available at other times of the year. Please enquire.
