Description
Situated at the foot of the green hill, on the promenade of Cortona, the property enjoys magnificent views over the wide valley towards the nearby Lake Trasimeno and the conical tops of the Amiata and Cetona mountains, further south bordering Umbria and Lazio.
Torre Montalla, as the name suggests, is an old stone house recently restored and converted into a comfortable holiday home with private pool. Internally the house is tastefully decorated in typical Tuscan style and equipped with modern comforts.
Shaded by mature trees, the large garden offers splendid views of the surrounding countryside, a vine-covered area for shady outdoor dining, and an inviting private swimming pool (4x11 m) fenced and available from May to October, while the large outbuildings house A barbecue and provide a welcome shaded parking.
Services of all kinds including restaurants, bars and supermarkets are available in the nearby small towns of Camucia and Cortona respectively at 2 and 3 km.
Within just 5 minutes' drive, on a hill of about 600 meters above sea level, lies Cortona, a small cosmopolitan town of Etruscan origin, surrounded by ancient walls within which you live a unique and mystical atmosphere through medieval street and squares with excellent restaurants and stylish shops. The views over the extensive valley below towards the lake Trasimeno are simply breathtaking.
Cortona is also the place where the American romantic comedy drama "Under the Tuscan Sun" was shot in 2003, and Torre Montalla precisely adjoins the house where part of the movie took place.
As it was for the Etruscans, the city is still in a strategic location that allows, with short trips to reach important artistic and cultural centers of both Tuscany and all central Italy.

Location and surroundings of object
The region is located in the central part of the country, north of Rome and south of Genoa. It is bounded by the Apennine Mountains to the North and East, the Apuan Alps on the northwest and by the Tyrrhenian Sea on the West. From the Etruscans to the Romans to the Renaissance, Tuscany is perhaps the greatest repository of art in the world, from extraordinary paintings and sculptures to frescoes and architectural masterpieces.
Tuscany: a row of cypress trees breaking the blue sky on a rolling hilltop. Olive groves and grapevines marching tidily down the side of a slope. Little medieval hill towns gazing down upon a country that has been carefully cultivated. Florence is the capital of Tuscany. Other important cities are Siena, Pisa, Arezzo, Pistoia, Prato, Lucca, Livorno, Grosseto, Massa Carrara.
