Description
Set on one of the stunning hillsides outside Cortona with south-facing views out over the Teverina Valley and east into Umbria, this beautiful family home, is a very special and enticing property. It offers the rare opportunity of being immersed in Tuscany’s natural beauty, in a wonderful peaceful setting, while being within easy distance of both Tuscany's and Umbria’s best loved sights.
Cà di Baccino is a place in which to fully relax and unwind, either sitting by the swimming pool, enjoying aperitivi under the arched loggia or reading in the cool shade of the pergola. Evenings ‘al fresco’ can be spent cooking up a barbecue or a pizza (in the modern pizza oven included in the sale), or alternatively taking a stroll over to the beautiful Tenuta La Scure restaurant where one can enjoy a wonderful meal in an elegant, panoramic setting.
The property itself provides spacious family living in one of the most beautiful settings in the region. Notable individual features are the arched loggia in front of the house, the drawing room with its lofty ceiling and magnificent open stone fireplace, the large wine and storage cellar and the Lizzie Riches mural decorating the entrance hall.
The house is reached via a well-maintained communal road which passes by a large farmhouse (some 300 metres up from the gravel driveway) occupied by a local farming family. This adds to the security of the location.
The house consists of the following:
Elegant high-ceilinged drawing room, a very large kitchen-dining room, a pantry-cellar, 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms plus an outdoor shower room with WC.
Adjacent to the main house, there is a two-storey annexe with self-contained studio-apartment: First floor - apartment with sleeping, living, dining, kitchen and bathroom areas; Ground floor - large storage room and woodshed.
Outdoors there is a 10m x 5m architect-designed swimming pool area with pool, dining terrace, BBQ & pizza oven, pergola; and a beautifully maintained mature garden.
The property includes:
*25 acres (10 hectares) of unspoiled Tuscan hillside with fabulous surrounding walks.
* Exceptional, far-reaching panoramas.
* Telephone land line and fast internet.
* Gas central heating + wood stoves.
* Mains water + private well
* Large parking area adjacent to the house with a lockable gate
