For sale: a captivating 18th-century stone farmhouse with two charming guesthouses, panoramic swimming pool, centuries-old park, 25 hectares of private land, two ancient wood-burning ovens, and a garage – just 10 km from the historic center of Cortona.

The Main House

Lovingly restored in 2005, the main stone farmhouse retains all the original architectural elements of traditional Tuscan country homes: terracotta floors, exposed wooden beams, large fireplaces, and a panoramic loggia with breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.

The interiors include:
• 3 double bedrooms
• 1 single bedroom
• 4 bathrooms
• 2 spacious living rooms with fireplaces
• Kitchen and dining area
• Covered loggia with direct access to the garden – perfect for al fresco dining and enjoying peaceful sunsets

The Guesthouses

Guesthouse 1 – Fully renovated and ready to host family, guests, or short-term renters. It features a cozy living room with fireplace, kitchenette, bathroom, and a double bedroom with a beautiful arched French door opening directly onto the garden.

Guesthouse 2 – Currently in need of interior completion, this structure has exceptional potential. Ideally located next to the pool, it is perfect for conversion into a luxurious pool house with a wellness area, a private studio, or a creative atelier.
