Villa Le Maschere, Renaissance villa in Barberino di Mugello, Italy.
The villa extends across 44 acres of parkland with views of the Apennine Mountains and contains two outdoor pools and a complete spa facility.
Built in the late 1500s by the Bettini family, the villa later became property of the Gerini family who expanded the structure and created Italian gardens.
The main building features 22 carved masks on its west facade, each displaying different expressions and craftsmanship that range from cheerful to monstrous faces.
Located one hour from Florence, the property offers a daily bus service to the city and maintains 64 rooms across five different accommodation categories.
The villa houses a chapel with frescoes from 1780, commissioned by Carlo Francesco Gerini and connected to the ground floor for Pope Pius IX's visit.
