Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Cetona, Italy, Podere Fabbrica is a magnificent stone farmhouse that stands on the border between Tuscany and Umbria, on the slopes of Monte Cetona and within reach of the celebrated borghi of San Casciano dei Bagni and Chiusi. This exceptional vacation rental is the result of a careful and respectful restoration of a 19th century farmhouse, where fine traditional materials such as hand-made terracotta flooring and chestnut ceiling beams have been preserved and celebrated throughout. Encircled by majestic cypress trees and set within a sprawling estate of approximately 5 hectares, Podere Fabbrica comprises a main house and a separate annex, making it an ideal retreat for families, groups of friends, or multi-generational gatherings seeking both togetherness and privacy. The property benefits from a generous yard rich in plants, flowers, and manicured lawns, while a dedicated parking area accommodating up to 5 cars is conveniently located at a lower level of the estate. High-speed Internet Wi-Fi is available throughout, ensuring you remain connected during your stay without compromising the sense of peaceful seclusion that defines this remarkable property.
Outdoors
The estate's outdoor spaces are as thoughtfully composed as its interiors, offering a succession of distinct areas designed for relaxation, dining, and contemplation. The lush garden, covering approximately 2,000 square metres, is planted with a wide variety of seasonal flowers that bloom in rotation across the manicured lawn areas surrounding the house and the pool zone. A stately row of cypress trees lines the driveway leading to the property, reinforcing the timeless Tuscan character of the setting. Immediately outside the kitchen, on a lower terrace, a large paved pergola houses a dining area furnished with a table and chairs, perfect for alfresco meals in the shade. Adjacent to the main entrance, a spacious furnished portico offers welcome shelter during the warmest hours of the day. Next to the annex, a beautifully appointed gazebo provides an intimate outdoor sitting area, while a pebble path winds its way to a romantic, shaded, panoramic pergola with sweeping views over the surrounding countryside. The centrepiece of the outdoor experience is the stunning non-heated infinity pool, positioned on a lower terrace and accessible from the main house via a short flight of steps across the garden, or from the annex along the pebble path. The rectangular pool measures 6 x 12 metres, with a depth ranging from 1.20 to 2 metres, and is finished in elegant grey stoneware tiles. It features salt-based water purification, internal lighting, and 4 submerged entry steps. The generously proportioned surrounding terrace, also tiled in stoneware, is equipped with a gazebo, sofa, coffee table, sunbeds, and deck chairs, creating an ideal setting for long, leisurely afternoons in the sun. A small annex adjacent to the pool houses a bathroom with shower and a laundry area. The pool is open from the last Saturday of April until the first Saturday of October.
