Panoramic terraced house with garden for sale in Lastra a Signa

Townhouse for sale in Lastra a Signa, Florence. About 109 sqm finely renovated with independent entrance, 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, private garden of about 618 sqm and panoramic views over the hills toward Florence. Ideal as a main home close to the city. General Description: On the hills of Lastra a Signa, in the sought-after Le Selve area, this terraced villa blends the feel of the Tuscan countryside with immediate access to services and Florence. The home comes from the careful restoration of a historic rural building, now divided into four independent units, offering a refined and private setting with open views that on clear days reach the skyline of Florence and its Duomo. The entrance is independent and the property is delivered fully renovated, with modern, functional spaces and a substantial garden — a rare feature this close to the city. Internal Description: Interiors are arranged over two levels, totaling about 109 sqm. On the ground floor, the entrance opens onto a bright, well-organized open-plan living area with lounge and kitchenette-dining space, designed for everyday life and easy entertaining. A windowed bathroom is also on this level. A contemporary design staircase leads to the first floor, dedicated to the sleeping area with two large, quiet double bedrooms and a second windowed bathroom. Finishes strike a warm, understated balance: exposed wooden beams, parquet floors, and details that echo Tuscan character while keeping today’s comfort. External Description: The private garden of about 618 sqm is the real star of the property. Set on two levels and wrapping around the house, it provides different outdoor corners to enjoy all year: an al fresco dining zone, a shaded relaxation area, or even a small vegetable garden, all with privacy and sun. The hillside position brings clean air and calm, while private parking spaces complete the practicality of a home meant to be lived in daily.

The recent renovation prioritized insulation and living comfort, adopting technical solutions aimed at energy saving. Uses and Potential: This villa is ideal as a main residence for anyone who wants to live in greenery without moving far from work and urban services, and it is equally appealing as a high-quality second home just outside Florence. The large garden, views, and “move-in ready” renovation also make it attractive for mid-to-high-end rentals, which are in demand here thanks to the countryside-plus-city combination. Local Real Estate Market: Lastra a Signa remains one of the most dynamic municipalities on Florence’s western side, supported by close proximity to the city and the landscape quality of its hills. In 2025 the average asking price for residential property stands around €2,700 per sqm, below the provincial mean yet showing steady growth over recent years. Renovated independent or semi-independent homes such as townhouses and terraced villas with gardens tend to sit slightly above the municipal average, often between €2,600 and €3,000 per sqm, because they match the demand of families and commuters seeking outdoor space and solid living standards. The local market shows good resilience and quick absorption for energy-efficient homes with rare appurtenances (large gardens, parking, panoramic views), especially in hillside hamlets like Le Selve where supply is limited and demand stays constant. Tourist and Historical Information: Lastra a Signa is a natural gateway between Florence and the rolling hills of the Val di Pesa and Chianti, a place where history and nature quietly intertwine. The historic center preserves a medieval layout with walls, gates, and churches reflecting centuries of ties to Florence. The town is also linked to Enrico Caruso, who lived here for a period, and whose memory survives through local cultural routes and initiatives. Nearby, parish churches, historic villas, and trails through olive groves and vineyards invite walking and cycling. From Le Selve you enjoy the hush of the hills while reaching, within minutes, the Arno River Park, Florence’s green belt, and the main routes to central Florence, Scandicci, and the airport.
