An elegant Tuscan residence on a historic estate dating from the Leopoldine era. Situated in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, just a few minutes from Cortona and Castiglion Fiorentino, Casale dei Ciliegi is an elegant residence within a prestigious residential estate, the result of the refined restoration of an ancient Leopoldine-era country house dating from 1750. Accessible via a short, well-maintained gravel track, the property enjoys a commanding position on a hillside, surrounded by greenery, privacy and timeless rural beauty. The estate is set within a large communal park and features a splendid panoramic swimming pool with unobstructed views over the Val di Chiana and the enchanting Castle of Montecchio Vesponi. Tuscan character, balance and refined restoration The residence has been carefully restored with great attention to detail and inspired by the principles of Feng Shui, creating a harmonious balance between beauty, comfort and functionality. Traditional Tuscan materials characterise the interiors: terracotta floors, exposed chestnut beams, wooden finishes and a splendid staircase in pietra serena all contribute to creating an atmosphere of authenticity, warmth and understated elegance. Charming interiors spread over two levels The ground floor offers a cosy living room with double French windows opening directly onto the private garden. The kitchen, with its warm and convivial atmosphere, has been created in the farmhouse’s former oven room and features an original vaulted ceiling; it is separated from the living area by an elegant arched opening. A distinctive staircase in pietra serena leads to the first floor, where the sleeping area comprises a spacious master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a versatile second bedroom. This room has been skilfully redesigned with a chestnut wood structure, creating three distinct areas: a study, a cosy lounge area with a sofa bed, and a mezzanine sleeping area with a double bed. The interiors are complemented by an additional bathroom, a walk-in wardrobe accessible from the mezzanine, and practical built-in storage spaces beneath the staircase. A private garden brimming with Tuscan charm The private garden is one of the property’s most charming features. Carefully tended and full of atmosphere, it features a romantic pond with irises and water lilies, as well as an iron gazebo shaded by a rare variety of white strawberry grape vine. The Mediterranean vegetation, which includes maritime pine, albizia, olive trees, cypresses and black locust trees, creates natural shaded areas ideal for outdoor living during the warmer months. Two splendid cherry trees give the property its name and add a poetic yet authentic touch to this tranquil country setting. Panoramic swimming pool and exclusive setting Within the estate, residents have access to a stunning panoramic swimming pool, perfectly situated to admire the unobstructed views over the Val di Chiana and the historic Montecchio Vesponi Castle. The combination of private outdoor spaces, well-tended communal gardens and a refined architectural heritage makes this residence a rare opportunity for those seeking a property with character, one that guarantees privacy and offers a truly attractive lifestyle.
