The Hunting Lodge Price: E.870,000 + VAT Showcase property Beautiful architecture, stunning interior design Light and spacious interiors Landscaped garden with pool Panoramic views and spectacular sunsets Within an exclusive gated complex of 5 acres Private garden and pool Height of luxury To be sold fully furnished. 1km to village, 9 kms to Cortona town centre This stunning, show-case property, designed to provide the height of luxury in the perfect location, would make an idyllic family holiday home, but would also make a sound investment given its high-end of the market rental potential. Named as the Hunting Lodge, this property is one of six equally characteristic buildings within a luxurious gated complex of 5 acres. Each property has its own private garden and swimming pool. Standing on the grounds of the original hamlet which was once administered by the Order of the Knights of St Stephens and part of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, each property has been meticulously reconstructed with only recuperated and high quality materials combined with state of the art technology. The Hunting Lodge, styled on the Leopoldine buildings introduced to Tuscany in the 18th century by Pietro Leopoldo the Grand Duke of Tuscany was conceived, designed and executed by a group of eminent Tuscan architects who between them have taught at Harvard, Columbia and Florence universities. Inspired by the hamlet's ancient history, and motivated to make a mark of their own on the Tuscan landscape, this dedicated group of architects – teamed with an engineer and an interior designer – have created an island of beauty and harmony. Its fine lines, its allocation of space and the abundance of natural light make it stand out from traditional Tuscan homes and its setting, with beautiful views up to the hill top town of Cortona, surrounded by classic Tuscan countryside – ideal for walking and cycling – make it a unique property. The property, as can be seen in the photographs, is perfect: beautiful architecture combined with elegant and tasteful interiors and a wonderful landscaped garden with pool. Built on one floor - other than for the gorgeous bedroom situated in the characteristic Leopaldine dovecote - the property (which totals 202 mtq) consists of: A small entrance loggia leading into a large living room with a fireplace. A dining room leading in to the large eat-in kitchen from where French doors lead out under the covered porch (45 mtq). A master en-suite bedroom in the first floor dovecote (33 mtq) A second en- suite bedroom Two additional double bedrooms and a bathroom. The covered porch has been designed as a comfortable outside seating area for dining 'al fresco' as well as for enjoying the breath-taking nightly sunsets with the last of the sun's rays settling on Cortona town itself. The private garden, of just over one acre, is on two levels with a swimming pool of 50 mtq.
