Cortona Farmhouse with Pool
About this property
The Tuscany-Umbria border is one of those places where the landscape looks exactly like the postcards, except you actually get to live in it. This restored farmhouse sits in Falzano, close enough to Cortona to drop the name casually in conversation, far enough out that you're not sharing your terrace with tour groups. At 250 square metres across multiple levels, the house has proper presence without ever feeling like you're rattling around in too much space.
The layout is genuinely well thought through. Ground floor brings a spacious kitchen with direct outdoor access, a living room, study, bathroom, and utility room. Up one level, a large living room with fireplace handles winter evenings with appropriate drama, joined by two further bedrooms and a second bathroom. The top floor is given over entirely to the master suite with its own en-suite, which manages to feel quietly luxurious rather than showy. The renovation used typical local materials throughout, so you get the authentic Tuscan farmhouse character without the authentic Tuscan farmhouse plumbing headaches.
Beyond the walls, 9,000 square metres of land unfolds around the property, anchored by a swimming pool for those long summer afternoons when even the locals retreat to the shade. A paved road winds in from the countryside, which is both romantically scenic and practically sensible. Basic services sit 5 to 6km away in the nearby village, with a larger town offering fuller amenities at 15km. Cortona itself, one of the most celebrated hilltowns in central Italy, is within easy reach. At €490,000 for this much restored stone, land, and lifestyle, the maths feels surprisingly honest.
