The Church – San Miniato: Renovated 17th-Century Church in a Renaissance Village

Completely renovated 17th-century church in the countryside near San Miniato, set in an ancient Renaissance village. The accommodation occupies the former single-nave church and offers two bedrooms—one on a mezzanine. Enjoy an exclusive outdoor area, a grand antique staircase, and an entrance with a patio and historic columns.



The bathroom, located in the old sacristy, features a vaulted frescoed ceiling and a shower finished in fine Tuscan stone. The kitchen and cabinets are handcrafted.



This authentic Renaissance church has been transformed into a two-bedroom home, furnished with antique and vintage pieces, original antique brick floors, TV, air conditioning, heating, and free Wi-Fi. The custom kitchen is made of wood and Tuscan stone, and includes a dishwasher and washing machine. In one bedroom, a canopy bed lets you ring the 17th-century bell in the small bell tower by pulling a rope. The other bedroom is on the mezzanine, overlooking the church interior. The bathroom features a freestanding sink and an oversized shower in Tuscan stone beneath a frescoed vault.



Outdoors, there is a courtyard with an old stone sink, a gas barbecue, and a front patio under the colonnade. The bell tower, stoup, grand staircase, and external colonnade reflect the property’s religious heritage.



The village of Palagio is just a few kilometres from the highway exit. Easily accessible by car, you can park in the historic stone square or in the private garage.
