Villa Cortona masters a blend of Tuscan heritage and contemporary design, just 15 mins away from the renowned hilltop town of Cortona
Carefully renovated by its owners, the villa preserves its original stone structure while introducing a refined, modern layout powered by renewable energy. The result is a home that feels both rooted in tradition and quietly forward-thinking, offering privacy, comfort, and a strong connection to its surroundings.
From the moment you drive through the entrance gate, the atmosphere shifts.
A scenic driveway leads through the woodland to the villa, where a wooden pergola provides covered parking for up to six cars. From there, a stone path lined with lavender, rosemary, and sage guides you to the front door, where the scents of Tuscany welcomes you home.
Set within a private park of approximately 3 hectares, the property is ideally positioned for exploring Tuscany, with Florence, Siena, Arezzo, Montepulciano, and the Val dâOrcia all within easy reach.
OUTDOOR LIVING, POOL AND GYM
The outdoor spaces extend naturally from the house, designed for both relaxation and activity.
â Swimming pool (12 Ă 4 m): Open from May to September, with a sun terrace, barbecue area, and traditional pizza oven
â Private park: A mix of woodland and open spaces surrounding the villa
â Designer gym: A striking glass and Cor-ten structure set among the trees, offering a unique setting for workouts immersed in nature
The layout encourages a natural rhythm to the day, moving easily between the house, the garden, and the surrounding landscape
