At first glance, this 5,920\u00a0sq\u00a0ft villa looks like something straight out of the French West Indies, with its exotic plants and its island-feel. So it might be hard to believe that it is actually in Tuscany, not far from Florence, and less than 800\u00a0yards from the beaches of Forte dei Marmi. The (rather majestic, it must be said!) spiral staircase leading to the upper floors immediately brings to mind Florence\u2019s greatest artist, Leonardo da Vinci\u2026 And it all falls into place. Even though you\u2019ll still dream of an Italian island in the French West Indies.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
