La Fattoria di Salcotto – A Masterpiece from the 1500s with a Panoramic View of Cortona
In a semi-hilly position, a short distance from Cortona, stands La Fattoria di Salcotto, a prestigious residence dating back to 1500 AD, flanked by annexes that make up a total of 1400 m2 to be restored. This extraordinary residence is mentioned in the book “Farmhouses of Valdichiana”, a work dedicated to the oldest and most distinctive structures in the area, and occupies a privileged position in Cortona, in the town of Salcotto. The main body, built in the 15th century and belonging to the Marquisate of Petrella, is highlighted by the coat of arms above the main entrance.
The structure, located on the slope of the Cortona hill, offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the Valdichiana, which embraces the spectacular panorama from Lake Trasimeno to Mount Amiata. The main body, divided into three floors for a total of approximately 1,030 m2, has a perfectly symmetrical façade, underlined by an orthogonal flight of stairs. The openings on the ground floor and first floor are finely decorated with stone displays, while the ground floor is characterized by a harmonious succession of cross vaults.
Two detached annexes, one adjacent and the other in front of the main body, offer approximately 170 m2 and 200 m2 of additional space respectively. With a careful and conservative renovation, both the villa and the annexes could be transformed into an extraordinary residence, potentially with 11 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms and a large and comfortable swimming pool. The property is completed by a garden of approximately 2500 m2, 60,000 m2 of land with 680 olive trees and 4 artesian wells for water supply. Thanks to its structure, the property lends itself perfectly to high-level hospitality businesses or as a luxury residence
