About
Villa Quercia Bargello is situated in stunning countryside within walking distance to the village near to Citta' di Castello and Cortona and consists of 4 BEDROOMS, all with own PRIVATE BATHROOMS. The property has been restored from an original tobacco tower retaining many original features such as chestnut beams throughout and beautiful flooring but adding modern comforts. The views from this property are amongst the best you will ever experience and the covered terrace with comfy sofa and armchairs from where to lounge and take in the views, perhaps with a glass of wine or two will soon become one of your favourite spots. The pool is huge, 16mx6m, saline and heated and just perfect if you like to swim as you can do real lengths as well as for playing. The village has a small shop where you can get fresh bread in the mornings and the restaurant in the next village is one of the best in the area. Cortona, Citta' di Catello, Montone, Umbertide, Gubbio and so many more amazing places are just a short drive away. The perfect location for your holiday in Umbria. The bedrooms in Villa Quercia are all very spacious and the two upstairs bedrooms are master bedrooms with double beds. One of the master bedrooms on the upper floor has it's own private terrace which is very large and overlooks the splendid Umbrian countryside with mountain views in the background. The views are truly among the best you will ever experience, breath taking. The second upstairs master is really a suite with doors that lead into a separate dressing area, bathroom with tub and very spacious bedroom, in this bedroom we have now also added air conditioning for those guests who suffer more from the heat (the air-con. is paid for separately so that if you do not use it you do not pay for it) We, the owners, used to live in a separate building situated behind the rental when our children were younger. Presently our home is empty and is never rented out to guests. Villa Quercia is a private villa for you and your guests only. You enter the property via a wonderful covered terrace which is very large and acts as an outdoor lounge area with sofa and comfortable seating providing the perfect spot to sit and relax during the day as it is covered and hence shaded or to take in the stunning views with a glass of wine or two in the evening or at any point of the day. There is always a little breeze here and provides the perfect spot as always cooler even during the hottest parts of the year. From the terrace large doors lead into the lovely bright sitting room with internet TV, DVD player and DVD library and a wood burner for the cooler months of the year. The sitting room is in what used to be a tobacco tower and therefore has very high ceilings lending this space a very airy and bright feeling. From the upstairs sitting room doors separate this part of the house and lead into the upstairs master bedrooms and bathrooms. One of the master bedrooms has its own private terrace from which to enjoy the amazing views and its own bathroom with shower. Another set of doors lead into the second master bedroom suite, comprising of dressing area, bathroom and very spacious bedroom. From the upstairs sitting room steps lead down to the lower floor where you will find two further bedrooms each with two single beds (in both of the rooms the beds can be made into a double bed). These rooms have very large doors with lockable shutters. There are also two lovely bathrooms on this floor so that each bedroom has its own bathroom. The lower floor bedrooms are always especially cool as the lower part of the house has been built into the hill side. Also situated on the lower floor is the modern kitchen with table and chairs seating 8 and a second smaller sitting area with sofa and armchairs. Doors lead outside onto a large area, terrace for outside dining with sunshade, barbecue and again with wonderful views over the surrounding countryside. The property has been restored (former tobacco tower) to a high standard throughout. Originally an agricultural building, we have taken great care in restoring the villa to have all modern comforts and yet retaining the original feeling of the place. We have used local workmanship throughout using the traditional chestnut beams and tiled ceilings and the floors are all terracotta tiles which keep the floors nice and cool in the hot summer months. We have used good quality sanitary wear and tiles in all 4 bathrooms so that each bedroom has a lovely bathroom. The property has a very large 16x6m saline pool (almost no chlorine) situated on a terrace one level below the house. We have now also added solar heating and thermal cover and thereby extending the season and taking the edge off once the nights start to be cooler in the shoulder months. There are plenty of sunbeds for those of you who want to take in the sun, however, there is also plenty of natural shading provided by trees Tourist License / Licencia de turismo N °: IT054013C204020111
