If you are a fan of perfect interiors that are untouched by daily life, that look like something plucked right from the pages of a decor magazine, but can’t seem to manage it at home – it’s pretty hard to maintain when you are busy – then the easiest way to get a taste of this kind of elegant perfection is to book a stylish villa in Tuscany. For the duration of your holiday, you can enjoy living in these beautiful surroundings and escaping daily routines and concerns. We have all sorts of properties in Tuscany to suit different tastes that will allow this kind of experience. From historic palaces full of gorgeous antiques, to charming county houses that are warm and welcoming, to sleek and modern apartments in amazing cities, there is something for everyone.
Take, The Architect's House in Cortona, for example. This perfectly designed gem has that distinct architect’s touch and is located right in the heart of the charming town of Cortona, making it the perfect spot for a dreamy escape...
The Architect's House is a charming stone villa with a perfectly manicured and stylish modern private garden where you can dine al fresco at a large table (seating up to 12), charge up the grill at the barbecue on site, sun yourself during the day in the sunbeds, sit around the fire pit with glasses of wine in the evening, or play with any kids in the party on the little lawn. Plus, it will be good to know that the garden is gated and fully enclosed for your security and privacy.
Inside, the chic villa is spread over 200sqm and three floors. It has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and can comfortably accommodate up to four guests. Boasting pristine, well-maintained interiors, the house combines elements of Tuscan and Scandi style, modern touches, and original features of the house - like exposed stone walls and ceiling beams. Expect comfortable furniture, high ceilings, an excellent use of space, interesting artworks, and lots of great decorative touches throughout.
The entrance hall passes through to the open and impressive stairwell with a little seating area and fireplace and then comes into the bright and cheery kitchen. This kitchen has a dining table for six featuring a banquette as well as open shelving with cool ceramics on display, interesting lighting overhead, an entrance directly out to the dining area outside (making it easy to bring your meals outdoors), a massive marble sink, exposed beam ceilings, lots of counter space, a large stove and oven, a washing machine, a dishwasher, a large fridge-freezer, and more.
On the first floor, you will find the first of the bedrooms, a double en suite room that is very cosy and spacious and boasts views over the surrounding buildings and glimpses of the famous Tuscan scenery beyond. The bathroom is sleek and modern, with a large shower, while the bedroom itself is a warm and inviting space with lush draperies, plush bedding, the exposed wooden beam ceiling overhead, works of art all around, and a desk with two chairs, as well as ample storage space. The equally inviting living room is on this floor with a comfy sofa, an armchair, satellite television, warm lighting from lamps all around, shelves with books, and lots of charming decorative touches.
Then, on the top floor, there is the second bedroom, also an en suite double and very similar in style and proportions to the bedroom below. Throughout the whole house, air-conditioning and WIFI are available to ensure your comfort and ease.
Plus, various extras are available to further ensure you have an enjoyable and comfortable stay including the option of a prestocked fridge (at an additional fee) upon arrival as well as the possibility to have custom tours arranged by the owner according to your group’s needs and interests (again, at an extra fee depending on the specifics of the tour and the group size).
So, plan a dream stylish escape in Tuscany with this incredible vacation rental in Cortona today!
