IL BOSCO DEI TARTUFI
Near CORTONA
|
Sleeps 12
When the owner bought the property,
the agent said" I didn't know that it
was still possible to buy houses like
this in Italy". We are delighted to be
able to offer to our clients this
unique and beautiful property. Set
high in the wooded hills above
Cortona, this restored and ancient
farm provides a great location for
those who wish to enjoy peaceful,
unspoiled, yet interesting
surroundings in great comfort.
As one drives up to the property you
can't help feeling a sense of
anticipation: turning into a gloriously
open space surrounded by trees and
ultimately your holiday home, it is
difficult not to be overwhelmed by
the setting and stunning, far reaching
views to the distant mountains.
Surrounded by over 150 acres of its
own land, there is a glorious walk
through the woods to one of the
most spectacular views in Tuscany,
overlooking Lake Trasimeno. The
swimming pool, sculpted into the
grounds, and set into the side of a
hill, is designed in a way that the edge
simply "disappears', into a
spectacular backdrop providing the
ultimate panoramica. Its interior
designer owner, with both inside and
outside alfresco living in mind, has
exquisitely restored the house. While
remaining sympathetic to its natural
environment, it is a house imbued
with a sophisticated yet comfortable
ambiance, and is furnished
throughout with beautiful, inviting
sofas and armchairs, antiques,
artifacts, all softened with warm rugs
and cushions. The living room is
smart and spacious, the study with
fireplace is intimate and cozy,
bedrooms spoiling and comfortable.
The bathrooms are characterized by
their magnificent old fashioned, free
standing bath tubs, two large showers
and spectacular Tuscan stone sinks.
The spacious kitchen / dining room
acts as the social hub of the house, a
well equipped and attractive living
space which leads onto a covered
stone terrace with a dining table set
in a position to enjoy long, lazy
evenings while enjoying the
spectacular views of the hills. With
its two independent cottages within
meters of the main house, it is a
perfect accommodation for family
gatherings, or an adult group, who
may appreciate the opportunity for
their own space. Highly
recommended and early bookings
advised.
