In the verdant heart of the Mugello, less than an hour from Florence, stands Castello Belletti – a 13th-century estate that began as a fortress and evolved into an elegant private residence. Surrounded by five hectares of secluded parkland, it offers a rare opportunity to experience the unspoiled spirit of Tuscany.
A Region with Soul
Located in the municipality of Vicchio, just minutes from Dicomano and Borgo San Lorenzo, the property lies in one of Tuscany’s most authentic corners: a land shaped by the legacy of the Medici, ancient forests, stone-built villages and a lifestyle marked by quiet refinement. The rolling Mugello landscape remains untouched here, a harmonious blend of nature, culture and history.
The Estate
The architectural ensemble spans approximately 1,200 square meters of living space and includes:
- a historic manor house
- a medieval tower
- a total of 25 rooms, including 10 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, expansive reception halls, rustic kitchens and inviting common areas
The interiors have been preserved with great care and respect for tradition: exposed wooden beams, original terracotta floors, stone fireplaces and medieval arches coexist with curated details and understated elegance.
Grounds and Setting
A classic Italian garden, graced with centuries-old trees, rose bushes and sculpted hedges, opens into a private park of around five hectares, featuring walking paths, shaded retreats and open meadows. A panoramic swimming pool crowns the estate – a natural terrace overlooking the colorful hills of the Mugello and offering respite during the warm summer months.
Possibilities and Vision
This versatile estate is perfectly suited as:
- a refined private residence
- a boutique hotel or country retreat
- a venue for cultural events, retreats or creative residencies
- an elegant location for weddings and private gatherings
The flexible layout also allows for subdivision into independent units – ideal for extended families, international guests or adaptive-use hospitality concepts.
A Place for the Future
The Mugello region, in northern Tuscany, is increasingly sought after by international buyers seeking authenticity away from the tourist mainstream. Here, Tuscany reveals its most original face – tranquil, storied and alive with character.
