A Florentine Master House, from the 14th century to today's contemporary high life
Altipertoli is a typical medioeval Master House of the Florentine countryside, built in the 14th century and restored by architect and artist Maria Cristina Finucci, bringing it to contemporary standards of comfort and energy efficiency.
It first belonged to the noble family of Cavalcanti, known for the poet Guido Cavalcanti friend of Dante Alighieri. It was then sold to the Gini family: in the first register of the Florentine Republic of 1427 it is recorded that "Betto di Carlo di Betto Gini e fratelli" are owners of "un podere con casa da padrone a Altipertoli". In the 16th century Altipertoli was acquired by the Strozzi Family and after the death of Filippo Strozzi sold to the Florentine hospital of Santa Maria Nuova. It then went back to the the estate of Strozzi and later Acciaioli.
Altipertoli is situated on the crest of a hill, inhabited since the most ancient times as it enjoys a 360° view on the surrounding countryside, it is served by a well of perennial water, refreshed in the afternoon by a gentle breeze from the sea, enchanted by magic sunsets. The villa and the barn are surrounded by our olive grove: five hundred olive trees of various ages and cultivar produce a superior extra virgin olive oil.
