Villa Torre degli Elci is a beautifully restored 13th-century watchtower, later a monastery, set among the olive groves and cypress trees of the Tuscan countryside, just 4 km from Cortona. Overlooking Cortona and the Chiana Valley, it offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature.
The 300 sqm property accommodates up to 10 guests across five bedrooms and six bathrooms, with a three-level main house and two annexes.
The main house features two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms on the ground floor, one with a fireplace. The first floor includes a third en-suite double bedroom, a spacious living and dining area with a fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, and a reading room. On the second floor, there is another en-suite double bedroom, a panoramic reading room, and a mezzanine with two single beds and a bathroom, ideal for children.
One annex offers a kitchen, dining area, half bathroom, stone oven, and gazebo for outdoor dining, while the second annex includes a double bedroom, bathroom, minibar, and laundry area.
Outside, guests can relax in the landscaped gardens, enjoy the private swimming pool, unwind on eight sun loungers, or dine al fresco in the shaded outdoor seating area.
Combining historic character, modern comforts, and breathtaking scenery, Villa Torre degli Elci is an ideal base for experiencing the beauty of Tuscany.
