Majestic Historical Farmhouse With Spa And Pool In Cortona

Nestled in one of Cortona’s most secluded and picturesque hilltop enclaves, this imposing historic estate, spanning 1,200 sqm, offers a view of the surrounding landscape from its privileged position. Spanning three levels, the residence comprises seven bedrooms and twelve bathrooms, set within an extensive private estate of 1.74 hectares that combines a meticulously maintained garden with vast open spaces ideal for accommodating a helicopter landing pad. The property’s exclusivity is enhanced by a spectacular outdoor swimming pool and a luxurious wellness centre situated in the basement levels. Dating back to the late 17th century, the complex has undergone a skilful restoration that has preserved the charm of its period architecture intact. The sophisticated layout of the spaces and the absolute privacy of the setting define a property of the highest prestige, perfect for hosting numerous guests or for conversion into a prestigious hospitality venture.

The meticulous restoration work has preserved the distinctive features of traditional Tuscan rural and noble architecture, where antique terracotta flooring, period brickwork and ceilings punctuated by majestic exposed wooden beams instil an aura of aristocratic and authentic hospitality. On the ground floor, the living area unfolds into a grand reception room adorned with working fireplaces, which flows harmoniously into a formal dining room, a TV lounge, a billiards room and a private master study, complemented by service rooms and a dedicated bathroom area. The spacious kitchen, designed as a refined hub for socialising, meets the highest standards of excellence.

From the master study, a staircase leads down to the basement level, designed as an oasis entirely dedicated to wellbeing and the rejuvenation of the senses. Within this setting of absolute privacy lies a fully equipped fitness area, which serves as a prelude to a sumptuous wellness centre featuring a sauna, Turkish bath, hot tub and a treatment room, as well as a refined wine tasting cellar. The main floor houses the sleeping quarters, skillfully divided into two independent wings to ensure maximum privacy. The first wing houses a grand suite with a king-size bedroom, a private lounge and a study, connected internally to the charming turret on the second floor, where there is another bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. The opposite wing completes the residential offering with three elegant double bedrooms, enhanced by sophisticated en-suite bathrooms in marble and stone, each fitted with hydromassage showers or baths.

Set in a secluded location and surrounded by greenery stands the detached annexe, a private structure comprising two self-contained residential units, each featuring a living area with a kitchenette, a king-size bedroom and en-suite bathrooms. The estate is embraced by a majestic 1.74-hectare private park bordered by iconic Tuscan cypress trees, within which lies a lush garden adorned with olive groves and orchards, supplied by its own well. A short distance from the main residence lies the spectacular rectangular swimming pool (16x8 m), finished in fine pietra serena and set within a sunbathing lawn featuring a panoramic gazebo. The vast expanse of flat arable land offers exceptional potential for the development of a multi-purpose sports centre or an exclusive private helipad. The high-quality facilities include a wine cellar, laundry rooms and a four-car garage.
