Description
Medieval tower from the 12th century with swimming pool and private park in the Cortona Hills.
The Property
Surrounded by green hills at the foot of Cortona, a short distance from Lake Trasimeno, this charming residence of 396 square meters rises from an ancient tower from the 12th century and is spread over four levels, articulated in large and versatile rooms, perfectly restored respecting the original architecture.
Ground floor: It houses two large cellars with the ancient grains to be recovered, a basement with kitchenette and a multipurpose room located in an annex located in front of the tower, currently furnished as a dining room.
First floor: accessible by an external stone staircase, houses an entrance, a cozy living room with stove, a double bedroom, a bathroom and a laundry room.
Second floor: includes a bright dining room with original stone fireplace, a kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
Third attic floor: houses a double bedroom with private bathroom and another large room, today used as a storeroom, with potential to become a study or a second bedroom.
Status and finishes
The house is in excellent condition, thanks to a careful restoration both structural and finishes. The interiors retain the authentic charm of the Tuscan tradition, with exposed wood beams, white plaster walls and sandstone details. All systems are connected, including an efficient gas heating system.
External spaces
The property is surrounded by a private park of about 16,000 square meters, completely fenced and equipped with driveway access with electric gate. The garden houses about 45 olive trees, a small forest and a natural cave in perfect condition. A few steps from the tower opens the panoramic pool of 4×12 meters, with hydromassage, perfectly maintained, overlooking a quiet valley. The area is completed by an equipped patio and a veranda covered by climbing plants.
Annexes
In support of the tower, the property has numerous accessory spaces: two lemon trees that can be used for different purposes, two large warehouses, a shed used as a rustic dining room and the pool utility room, flanked by a bathroom. The property includes two private garages and a charming basement cave, formerly used as a pantry.
Possibility of using it
Thanks to its strategic position and unique architectural features, the property perfectly lends itself both as a private residence of value and as a charming accommodation facility, ideal for those who want to invest in the high quality hospitality between the Tuscan and Umbrian hills.
Location & Lifestyle
The property has a private but easily accessible location, a few minutes from the town of Cortona and well connected to the main road and railway arteries, including the A1 motorway. We are in the heart of an area between Tuscany and Umbria, two of the most popular regions of international tourism, close to famous destinations such as Montepulciano, Pienza and the Val d'Orcia.
