Tuscany Holiday Villa Arezzo Selene 6 Cortona

Three Bedroom Villa Cortona

Set in a beautiful and tranquil position close to the beautiful medieval town of Cortona, Selene 6 is a 19th Century villa beautifully restored and surrounded by extensive grounds with gorgeous gardens and secluded areas ideal for relaxing and dining al fresco. In a panoramic position below the villa is the large private swimming pool overlooking the valley beyond.

Situated in the valley below the town of Cortona proudly perched on the hillside just 1 km away, Villa Selene was originally the country residence of a local noble family. It is composed of a 19th Century villa, Selene 6, described here, and two separated cottages fully restored, No 373 Selene Winery and No 372 Selene Lemon. In the grounds of the estate is a lovely swimming pool (9m x 4m) enjoying a pretty view of the countryside and surrounded by lawns and mature gardens with majestic cypress trees, colourful plants and secluded spots for relaxing and enjoying the peace and tranquillity.

Selene 6 is situated on two floors and has been elegantly furnished in traditional style with many carefully collected turn of the century antique pieces. On the ground floor is a beautiful living room which boasts an inviting sitting area complete with original fireplace and comfortable sofas. Archways lead to the dining area and a fully equipped kitchen, and there is a handy washroom with w.c.

A staircase leads from the living room to the first floor, where there are three pretty bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a bath and one with a shower. The bedrooms open onto a terrace which is furnished with table and chairs and enjoys lovely views over the Chiana valley and Lake Trasimeno can be seen on a clear day in the distance. The terrace is furnished with table and chairs and is the ideal place for dining al fresco whilst admiring the panorama.

Selene 6 is immersed in lovely mature grounds with many secluded spots relaxing in the garden or by the private pool (9m x 4m), set in a charming position below and with lovely views of the valley and medieval Cortona on the hillside.

Cortona, just 1 km away and accessible on foot is a charming town. Rich in history, it is a real joy to explore and has a variety of shops, and excellent restaurants. Within easy driving distance are many of the finest places of interest of Tuscany, including Siena, Montepulciano, and Pienza. Lake Trasimeno and the Umbrian towns of Perugia and Assisi can also be easily reached.

The whole estate, composed by Selene 6, Selene Lemon and Selene Winery, is a perfect choice for a group travelling together as in total accommodates up to ten persons (plus two more extra persons on request), yet the individual accommodation in Selene 6, suitable for six persons, offers discreet privacy to guests. The estate’s swimming pool is exclusive only to guests booking the entire property.
