Contemporary four-storey stone villa with olive grove and panoramic swimming pool, for sale near Cortona.

Not far from the famous medieval city of Cortona, where the fresh and light breeze touches the house in summer, caressing the green olive peaks, the villa enjoys a scenic view of the valley and the surrounding green hills.

Peace, tranquility and privacy thanks to the private gravel road that leads to the villa and to the surrounding fully fenced land with an automatic gate.

The villa was elegantly built in stone on the foundations of a 12th-century building.

The light gray of all windows and internal doors, the natural colours used on the walls and the beamed ceilings together with the handmade terracotta floors create an elegant and refined atmosphere in harmony with the rural and natural context of this precious corner of Tuscany.

Great attention has been dedicated to the surrounding garden creating a magnificent outdoor living area built on various levels with high-quality features and overlooking the splendid Cortona landscape: hand-made terracotta paved sun terrace with a dining area, sunbathing area and barbecue area and a stone staircase leading to a travertine swimming pool with a stone cascade.
