Nestled beautifully amidst terraced olive trees,
Villetta Pergo sits in a perfect hillside position that overlooks one
of the most prized Tuscan valleys. This property was built respecting
traditional Tuscan style and combines traditional features with modern
day convenience. Such architectural aspects as exposed beam work,
hand made tiles and cut stone corners are featured throughout the
house. The farmhouse was originally built on two floors and the
owners have since extended on the property to include more sleeping
accommodation and further living space. The front terrace leads
into two reception rooms, large kitchen and dining area, 2 bedrooms, 2
bathrooms, a cellar room and large library or study.
An internal staircase leads up to the first floor where one will find a
master ensuite bedroom complete with amazing panoramic terrace and two
bedrooms that share a nice size bathroom. Outside, the terrace and
swimming pool (10x5) are positioned nicely to enjoy the panoramic
view. One hectare of fenced land and 70 olive trees surround the
farmhouse and add to the overall ambience and privacy of the
property.
The house itself is in perfect structural condition and is serviced
with all of the modern amenities like electricity, telephone, gas etc.,
but the position of Villetta Pergo is definitely its selling point! Of
course, the layout of the home, the use of space to optimize
accommodations and living room, the special touches such as a
recuperated stone fireplace and stone surrounds, a high-end kitchen and
fine bathroom fittings are all features of the home as
well. The home provides 300 sqm of habitable space and is
most definitely perfect for full time family living or as a fabulous
holiday retreat.
The location of the property is ideal and access to the home is easy with an asphalted road of about 500 m leads up from the main road and running directly to the property's gate. The serenity and privacy of this farmhouse goes hand in hand with the conveniences of a town nearby. Pergo is a short 5 minute drive from the house and here one will find a local supermarket, coffee bar and various other shops. The medieval hillside town of Cortona is 10 minutes away with great restaurants, cafes, shops, museums and churches. A wooded trail runs from the house to Cortona and is an invigorating and suggestive walk.
