Monks’ Farmhouse · Cor406

Nestled amongst the green hills of Cortona, this country house with exposed stone walls stands on a gentle slope from which both the Franciscan hermitage ‘Le Celle’ and the town’s historic centre are within easy walking distance. It is in this peaceful setting that the villa is situated, a traditional brick-built house with exposed stone cladding, faithful to the most authentic Tuscan style.
Expertly restored, the house now embodies a perfect harmony between past and present: the original features, carefully preserved, coexist with bright interiors where white blends with the natural warmth of the wooden floors, creating an atmosphere that is both welcoming and refined, in perfect harmony with the lush natural surroundings.
Set on a 1.5-hectare estate, the property comprises a two-storey main house, featuring two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a light-filled living area, flanked by an annexe that offers the potential to create a further bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Amongst the olive groves that dot the land, there is also the potential to build a panoramic swimming pool, designed to allow you to fully enjoy the surrounding landscape.
The land surrounding the house is home to the most authentic vegetation of the Tuscan countryside, with olive groves and orchards stretching as far as the eye can see: a true oasis of peace, yet surprisingly close to the heart of Cortona, reachable by a pleasant 45-minute walk along a 3.2 km route, or in just 7 minutes by car along a 3.1 km stretch of road.
A property that lends itself naturally to a variety of uses: perfect as a second home for those seeking a retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, but equally attractive as an investment opportunity for a tourist accommodation business.
