Description

Tucked away in the rolling hills of Tuscany, just outside the historic town of Cortona, lies a farmhouse that harkens back to another time, blending the beauty of rustic Italian rural life with an opportunity to create a bespoke living space. This property, nestled in the scenic landscapes of Arezzo, offers an engaging journey for those seeking a project, perfectly suited for crafting a quietly sophisticated retreat in one of Italy's most charming regions.

It’s a world away from the hustle and bustle of the big city, yet the farmhouse remains close enough to the vibrant town of Cortona—a jewel in Tuscany, best known for its medieval roots and warm golden hues of its architecture. For overseas buyers longing for the tranquility of the countryside with the occasional foray into the cultural delights of Italian life, this location provides the perfect balance. Whether you desire a serene walking trail through surrounding olive groves or wish to immerse yourself in the Umbrian town vibes of Trestina about 10 km away, there’s something to captivate every soul.

Let's dive deeper into this rural property, offering 375 square meters of living space. Now, for those of you imaginative few, envision this: a multi-story farmhouse that invites you to restore every nook and cranny to your tastes. The building, spread across three floors, hosts a combination of cellars, which present deep potentials for conversion—think wine storage or cozy getaway rooms. Rise to the first floor where you will encounter the main living quarters, featuring:

- 1 Living Room with Kitchenette
- 3 Bedrooms
- 1 Bathroom

And then, ascend to the upper levels, dedicated attic spaces waiting for a creative transformation. These attics with ceilings reaching up to 2.26 m can be expanded or turned into magical storage rooms—maybe even a small office or reading nook as you wish.

Adjoined to the farmhouse are several storage sheds or warehouses—providing 81 sqm (862 sqft) of additional space. Here lies the potential for recreation areas, guest accommodation, or even artist workshops, places where your creativity and craftsmanship can bloom in peace.

Overall, the farmhouse stands on solid ground but would benefit from seismic improvements and an interior makeover—an endeavor not without its rewards. Restorations are journeys on their own, sculpting spaces that rise to reveal a personalized haven, a testament to one's imagination and efforts. The farmhouse needs your vision to rise to its full potential, a place with a narrative of its own.

Sitting on 2.9 hectares (approximately 7.2 acres) of picturesque land, the property offers:

- Large Garden
- Olive Grove
- Small Portions of Woodland

Here, nature surrounds you. Whether you’re looking to engage in farming, establish a quaint garden of your own, or find tranquility amidst olive trees, this land provides privacy and plenty of room to roam and explore.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves; Cortona itself is an encyclopedia of experiences. The local climate is typically Mediterranean, with hot, dry summers and mild, moist winters. The weather, combined with the land’s fruitful bounty, is perfect for growing olives and enjoying fresh outdoor experiences throughout the year.

Locals and tourists alike can relish in the delights of Cortona. Take leisurely strolls through cobbled streets, feast on authentic Italian cuisine at one of the many trattorias or dive into the rich cultural tapestry at the Museu dell'Accademia Etrusca which celebrates a fascinating past.

For those moving to the area, life in a farmhouse is indulged by the seasonal rhythms of rural living. There's peace in the quiet surroundings of countryside life, a slower pace where you can appreciate daily nuances otherwise overlooked. Children growing up here are treated to the freedom of outdoor exploration, while adults can find solace in the close-knit community that defines Tuscany.
