About this property
Private Estate in the heart of Tuscany with private Pool and spacious garden
The house is located 6 miles outside of Cortona, on the Tuscan/Umbrian border, near Lake Trasimeno. The house dates back to the 1700s and was originally a farmhouse. It is set a third of the way up the hill, below a forest and we have over a hundred acres in which you can roam. The main house has 4 bedrooms with fans: 1 master bedroom with double beds, 2 twin bedrooms (they can be arranged as double), 1 single bedroom with French bed, 3 bathrooms, a beautiful living room with books (especially for children!) and fireplace, a charming dining room and a fresh portico with chairs and table. On the upper area of the garden, overlooking the hill town of Cortona, there is a large swimming pool with pool house. It is perfect for the warm summer days and to enjoy a fresh glass of Prosecco at sunset. We get enchanting colours up in the sky! The swimming pool is in a secluded position above the property and not within view of the house which allows again for an extra sense of privacy.
The separate guest house called Casa dei Nonni is within the grounds with its own garden area and drive. It sleeps 4 very comfortably and would suit a couple on their own or with an extra guest or older child as there is an extra bedroom which is not en-suite. It also has its own kitchen and spacious living room with many books and fireplace too. Just the bedrooms of this unit are air conditioned.

What a beautiful opportunity to connect with the Tuscan countryside!
This wonderfully appointed house is a short drive to several hilltop towns with history reaching back to the Eutruscans. The local good and wine are outstanding and the views of the lake and valley make this a perfect spot to bring people together.

Great location, privacy, and relatively close to interesting places to go
Great location, privacy, and relatively close to interesting places to go. And there is lots of living space and the decor is personalised and there are lots of books and games to entertain as well as a beautiful pool.

Un petit paradis....
Excellent séjour dans cette demeure aux charmes de l'ancien mais très bien équipée. Les propriétaires ont pensé à beaucoup de petits détails qui rende le lieu très accueillant: petite épicerie dans la cuisine, linge de maison, produits ménagers...La piscine est très agréable et bien entretenue. Jardin magnifique, vue sur la colline de Cortona où se couche le soleil.
