Villa Poggio Sereno is a charming Tuscan country house in stone and plaster, ideal for a holiday immersed in the quiet and relaxing atmosphere of the countryside around the prestigious little town of Cortona.
The cozy rooms are all air-conditioned, with a Wi-Fi connection. The comfortable bedrooms and the large living area, completed by a fully-equipped kitchen in stone and marble, overlook a lush manicured garden, a splendid natural terrace covered by the foliage of the olive trees that grow in a large part of the park, and completed by many seating areas and a beautiful swimming pool set in a central and super panoramic position.
From here you have an extraordinary view over the immense plain of the Val di Chiana and Lake Trasimeno, bordered on the horizon by the peaks of Monte Amiata and Monte Cetona. A unique landscape, composed of green hills, cultivated fields, and little ancient villages, which the magnificent sunsets reveal in all their glory.
Villa Poggio Sereno has two floors built on terraced ground, thus allowing direct outside access to the first-floor rooms as well. On the ground floor, a large French window leads directly into the spacious living area, consisting of a built-in kitchen, dining table, pantry, and sitting room. From here you come to a small hallway with one double bedroom served by a bathroom with shower, and to a short corridor which opens a double bedroom and a twin bedroom (with joinable beds) sharing a bathroom with shower.
An internal staircase leads up to the first floor, consisting of a double bedroom with direct access to the garden via a French window, a sitting room, and a bathroom with a shower. Under a portico on one side of the house, and adjacent to a brick structure with a wood oven and barbecue, is the laundry area.
Entering the front gate of Villa Poggio Sereno you come immediately to the parking area (for 3/4 car places), located conveniently close to the main entrance. From here the marvelous garden around the house opens out, tended to with great passion and perfectly set into the harmony of shapes and colors of the surrounding territory. The park, completely fenced-in for about one hectare, extends over terraced surfaces along the side of a hill with, in the background, the green hills of Cortona and, at the highest level, a vast expanse of olive trees ideal for strolling around in.
The beautiful pool is located in the center of the garden, where you can find also a delightful gazebo with a sitting area in a nice panoramic position, a play area with a ping pong table and swing, a lounge area just outside the first-floor sitting room and, finally, two spacious areas for alfresco meals with wood stove and brick-built barbecue.
