An antique water mill, which origins are presumed to be Etruscan, has been transformed several times during centuries. Recently the property consists of two most romantic stone houses, guest-house, car shed, and wood-storage, surrounded by lavish vegetation. The property, located in San Angelo, the area of Cortona with old, exclusive villas, has 2, 5 hectares of land including 100 olive trees, a river and most spectacular waterfall with crystal pond at its bottom. The bigger house features a large kitchen, double sitting room with a fire place, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a terrace. An internal patio connects this structure to the second house, which features a loggia, sitting room with a fireplace, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen, a store and two terraces. Below, there is a large room, which once housed the mill. It is at present used as storage, but can easily be transformed into a bar or wine cellar. Since the area around the houses is on different levels, several stone steps and trails connect the most romantic passages and panoramic spots. There is a small swimming pool with sun deck above the house. The vast green lawn in front of the houses has been reserved for outside dining area and has two gazebos covered with lush vegetation and a barbecue.
It is probably the most romantic spot in the area, with maximum silence, privacy and contact with nature, but not remote from other houses or villages. It takes minutes to get to the centre of Cortona.
