Description
Set high in the forested hills above historic Cortona, this enchanting former farmhouse is surrounded by two hundred hectares of its own land, where a woodland walk leads to breathtaking vistas of Lake Trasimeno. The old stone house and its two little cottages nestle in tranquil gardens, with drifts of lavender lining a pathway to the swimming pool terrace, perfectly placed for haunting views of heat hazed mountain peaks. A poolside gazebo makes a relaxing al fresco sitting room, complemented by a pergola dining terrace beside the house, while the villa itself is beautifully restored and brimming with character. Ancient beams and rafters now look down on colourful rugs and cushions, comfy sofas in cool toned blue and white, antiques and unique artefacts. Rustic chic bedrooms feature hand-painted furniture, a big timber sleigh bed and romantic four-poster, and bathrooms are replete with Tuscan stone sinks and free-standing bathtubs. Very popular for gatherings of family or friends, the villa is 3km from shops in Montenare, 15km from Cortona and 30km from water sports on Trasimeno.
