Large 11 Bedroom Property with Cypresses near Cortona

ITALY, TUSCANY, AREZZO, CORTONA

Just a few minutes from Cortona, hidden in the gentle rolling hills of Tuscany, this rare historic property embodies the timelessness of the Italian countryside. The property sits in an extraordinarily panoramic and peaceful position, surrounded by open sky, silence, and the deep green tones that define the Tuscan landscape.

The arrival is unforgettable and deeply emotional: a magnificent avenue of centuries-old cypress trees — truly Tuscan in spirit and beauty — forms a grand natural corridor leading to the farmhouse. Perfectly aligned and majestic, this cypress avenue creates an entrance of cinematic elegance, the kind seen in paintings and classic Italian films. It immediately conveys a sense of history, privacy, and arrival into a private world.

Dating back to the 1300s, the farmhouse is entirely built in original stone and has been carefully restored to preserve its soul whilst offering generous and flexible living spaces. The estate is currently arranged into three independent apartments, ideal for hosting guests, extended family, or hospitality use, however they can easily be reconnected to create a single prestigious residence.

In total, the property offers:

11 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, 4 kitchens, 4 living rooms, an elegant dressing room, external understairs storage, two additional storage rooms.

The interiors express authentic Tuscan character: exposed beams, stone textures, warm natural light, and views that frame the countryside like living paintings.

The total land extends across approximately 6 hectares, forming a private natural park around the house. Two hectares are oak woodland, providing shade. Wide meadow areas open around the house, planted with a remarkable variety of fruit trees: apples, pears, cherries, figs, almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, alongside mature plane trees and oaks that give depth and grandeur to the landscape. Approximately 238 olive trees complete the agricultural setting, offering the possibility of producing your own olive oil.

At the heart of the garden lies a spectacular panoramic swimming pool measuring 15 x 7 m (depth 1.2 – 2 m), positioned to capture sunsets over the valley. Beside it, a romantic pergola draped in blooming wisteria creates a shaded sanctuary for long summer lunches and golden evenings. There is a covered pergola parking area for seven cars, also adorned with wisteria.

Every corner of the estate is infused with harmony: the scent of cypress and olive trees, the slow rhythm of nature, and the architectural dignity of a 14th-century residence. Despite its serene seclusion, the property remains just minutes from Cortona’s restaurants, culture, and services — an ideal balance between privacy and accessibility.

A living estate where history, landscape, and architecture meet in perfect harmony.
