The ancient residence of the Knights of Malta in Volognano Poggio Secco overlooks the enchanting valley of Mezzomonte and retains the appearance of the fourteenth-century mezzanine building characterized by a Tower. In the Municipality of Impruneta, San Gersolè, just 10 km from Florence, after crossing the Montauto road we enter an easy driveway of cypress rows that leads to a private parking area of 5 parking spaces. On foot we walk to a driveway delimited by laurel plants to find yourself in a medieval courtyard with an ancient well still active. The apartment has two entrances: one from the courtyard and the other from the garden below. On the ground floor there is a large living room with fireplace, exposed beams and a ceiling height of about 4 meters, a bathroom and a kitchen with pantry. On the first floor we have a large double bedroom, the master bathroom with window and a second bedroom with private service. On the second floor there is the tower used as a bedroom with mezzanine, free on three sides with panoramic views of the valley ideal for those looking for comfort and tranquility in a context with medieval charm. The floor is made of antique terracotta and covers the entire internal area of the apartment. The property includes an outbuilding of two rooms of about 40 square meters with private entrance belonging to the property and a barn of about 40 square meters currently used as a shed. Furthermore, the property consists of two gardens and a land of about 6000 square meters with olive trees. The history tells that the Knights of Malta from the 11th century took refuge between the walls of this house and their traces are still visible today.
