About this property

Traditional stone cottage in rural, tranquil and quiet location built in 1799

The cottage, is a converted chapel dating back to 1799 (or further as we have recently found) and has been lovingly restored with traditional Tuscan materials has a double bedroom, en suite bathroom and a reading room upstairs with a fully fitted kitchen, dining and sitting room on the downstairs level. Double doors lead out to the garden and access to the secluded swimming pool. Barbeque facilities are available.

It is quiet and tranquil with much birdsong in the mornings. We live close by and can be available to help guide your Tuscan adventure and insure that its a wonderful and memorable experience.

The property is situated at the end of a strada bianca which is a challenge when taken for the first time. Quite fun once you have got used to the winding curves and passing deer, porcupine or wild boar on occasion.

At the poolside there is an authentic stone pizza oven for making late night pizza and a gazebo for relaxing in the ever present Tuscan sun.

The cottage is 25km from the City of Arezzo providing the nearest shopping and is a must see destination with tons of history. The nearest town is Palazzo del Pero which has a restaurant serving the best pizza in the Area.

Many ancient and historic towns are in easy driving distance rom the property. Cortona, Castilion Fiorentina, Anghiari, Monterchi, Sansopolcro, Montepulciano and Pienza to nme a few. Siena and San Gimignano is also easly reached. Florence is an hour on the train and its easy to get to Rome as well as Arezzo is on the main train line.
