Description:
The Renaissance-era villa is located in the area inside a hamlet overlooking the Valdichiana, halfway between the famous town of Cortona and Castiglion Fiorentino. It is spread over 4 levels for a total of more than 1590 square meters between noble villa and former lemon houses. On the basement floor are the cellar rooms, on floor 1 are the large reception rooms, a kitchen, entrance hall and connections to the outdoors. The halls have splendid floors made of antique grit, frescoes and wooden coffered ceilings; all go to restore the former noble atmosphere of the property. On the mezzanine floor is a small apartment and storage rooms. On floor 2 in the past were located all the rooms of the villa, 2 bathrooms and 2 beautiful terraces, one covered and overlooking the valley.
Outbuildings
The villa also has direct access to the rooms of the former lemon houses, which are now presented as cellars and storerooms on two levels, overlooking the villa's inner garden. With a view to future renovation they lend themselves well to become small apartments or rooms, with original features such as exposed beams or terracotta floors. On the side opposite the lemon houses is a private chapel, some of which has already been recently restored.
Condition and finishes
The property is in excellent structural condition after a very recent re-roofing and facade renovation. Counting on the splendid original finishes present throughout the villa a renovation that would enhance them, the arrangement of spaces and the planting could transform this property into a real jewel, both with receptive vocation and as a location for events.
Outdoor space
Outside the property has a beautiful Italian garden recently redone in the style of the one present in the villa in the nineteenth century. Other green areas are present near the lemon houses. Despite being within a single private hamlet, the villa has enclosed spaces intended for the total privacy and relaxation of future guests.
