Happy Life

”Happy Life” is a cozy apartment of approximately 170 sqm, enhanced by a charming private garden of about 40 sqm, located just 50 meters from the beautiful Piazza of Cetona (SI). The property is situated within a historic building dating back to the 1700s, completely renovated and equipped with an elevator, a true added value for a home in the heart of the historic center. The renovation was completed in 2018, with further improvements made in 2024, making this property an attractive opportunity ready to be lived in immediately.

Inside, the home consists of:
- On the First Floor, there is a high-quality, well-equipped kitchen, a bright living/dining room, a lounge with a fireplace, a guest bathroom, and the external garden of about 40 sqm.
- On the Second Floor, there are three spacious bedrooms, all fitted with custom wooden wardrobes, three bathrooms, an elegant hallway, and a convenient storage/laundry room.

The interior spaces are characterized by a comfortable and bright atmosphere, thanks to large windows that offer beautiful open and panoramic views, stretching from the historic center of Cetona to the surrounding countryside, all the way to Città della Pieve in Umbria.

The outdoor garden is a true corner of relaxation, complete with lighting and a water fountain.

The property is also equipped with air conditioning in both the living area and all bedrooms, ensuring maximum comfort in every season.
STATE OF REPAIR
During the 2018 renovation, the traditional features of historic homes in old town centers and medieval villages were preserved, such as the handmade terracotta floors and wooden beams with terracotta tiles for the ceilings. At the same time, a touch of modernity was introduced through the lighting, the choice of paints, the natural oak wood parquet flooring in the sleeping area, and the carefully crafted finishes in the kitchen and bathrooms.

Among the strengths of this property are: air conditioning in all rooms, including the living room and bedrooms; bathrooms furnished with elegant natural stone coverings; a reinforced front door and windows equipped with shatterproof glass and anti-intrusion handles. Additionally, there is a shared elevator serving only two apartments within the building, ensuring minimal use and maintenance.

In 2024, further improvements were made, including the installation of the aforementioned shatterproof glass, renovation of the fireplace, creation of large built-in wardrobes in the kitchen—now well-equipped and highly functional—as well as the addition of a glass guardrail on the staircase leading to the first floor and a custom-made cabinet in the related under-stair space. Finally, not to be overlooked is the beautiful wooden gazebo installed in the garden, which further enhances this precious outdoor space.

UTILITIES
The apartment has been recently renovated, so it is perfectly habitable right away. It is, of course, connected to all utilities and services such as gas, electricity, internet/Wi-Fi, and municipal water. The heating system is powered by methane gas with an independent boiler.

USE AND POTENTIAL USES
This house with a private garden can be the perfect home for those who love the typical charm of historic town centers but at the same time want to have a small outdoor space and enjoy a beautiful view, as well as appreciate walking to reach all amenities and services. The fact that the apartment is served by an elevator and has a generous size, combined with such comfortable and bright interiors, can be a strong point both for potential use as a second home and as a primary residence.

LOCATION
The property is located just steps from the beautiful main square of Cetona’s historic center, and within 50-100 meters on foot you can reach all the main services and shops: restaurants, bars, grocery stores, bakery, butcher, newsstand, pharmacy. Cetona is easily accessible thanks to the proximity of the Chiusi-Chianciano Terme and Fabro highway exits. Historic cities such as Florence, Siena, Arezzo, Montepulciano, Pienza, Cortona, Orvieto, Città della Pieve, and Perugia are not far away, and several thermal spa centers, such as San Casciano dei Bagni and Bagno Vignoni, make staying at this unique property even more enjoyable.
