Farmhouse-rustico in Tuscany

The property, easily accessible via an asphalt road, enjoys a convenient location close to amenities while remaining private and tranquil, where privacy and panoramic views blend harmoniously. The residence is arranged over three levels, offering generous and versatile spaces, ideal both for everyday living and for convivial gatherings. On the ground floor, you are welcomed by an intimate and cozy living area, several rooms used as cellar and storage spaces, a kitchenette, and a recording studio, perfect for those seeking a creative environment immersed in the silence of the countryside. The first floor, accessible via both an internal and external staircase, hosts the heart of the home: a spacious living room enhanced by an antique fireplace that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The modern, fully equipped kitchen is brightened by a large window overlooking the paved courtyard and the garden, establishing a seamless dialogue between indoor and outdoor spaces; this level is completed by a hallway, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. On the top floor there is an additional living room with kitchenette, hallway, two bedrooms, and a bathroom, an ideal space for guests or for creating a more private and independent living area. Externally, the property is surrounded by approximately 3,035 sqm of well maintained garden, enhanced by terraced areas with centuries old olive trees that narrate the passage of time through their silent presence; several flat areas are perfectly suited for the construction of a swimming pool, from which to enjoy enchanting sunsets over the surrounding hills.
The property is equipped with all utilities: heating is provided by an LPG system and wood-burning fireplaces, while water supply is connected to the municipal aqueduct; the property also features an alarm system and an electric gate.
Nestled in a panoramic position between Cortona and Lake Trasimeno, the farmhouse traces its roots back to a remote and fascinating past: Etruscan stones emerging from the walls and seventeenth-century inscriptions whisper stories of distant eras, preserving the memory of generations. The restoration carried out in 2011 was executed with sensitivity and respect, returning the farmhouse to its original splendor without altering its soul; every detail has been carefully curated, blending modern comfort with tradition. The fireplaces and stoves radiate an authentic warmth, while the hand-waxed beams and centuries-old floors lend the interiors a timeless charm.
Currently, Casale Il Fontanile is presented as a single residence; however, thanks to the provisions made during the restoration and the rational layout of the spaces, it is possible to easily create two or three independent apartments while preserving the harmony of the whole. It is perfectly suited both as a primary residence, for those wishing to live immersed in the beauty of the Tuscan countryside, and as an investment for short-term rentals, offering guests an authentic and captivating experience.
The property is located in the municipality of Cortona, just a few steps from the border with Umbria; the main services can be reached within minutes and the historic center is only a 7-minute drive away. Castiglione del Lago and Passignano sul Trasimeno are also easily accessible (approximately 15 minutes), as well as Castiglion Fiorentino (20 minutes) and Montepulciano (40 minutes), while the nearest airport is Perugia, about 40 minutes away by car (50 km).
