Casa Gorgacce
The house is in the Niccone valley which runs from the Tuscan town of Mercatale di Cortona (3 km) into Umbria and the upper Tiber valley. The house is quite private but not isolated. The nearest shop is 1 km away in the hamlet of Mengaccini.
The near locality has a lot to offer. As well as the stunning scenery dotted with medieval towns and castles, there is horse riding, tennis, cycling and on the lake ferry trips to islands, swimming and sailing. Family-run restaurants and pizzerie are found in every village.
The property is on a easterly facing hillside. The pool is 24 x 10 feet and a barn gives daytime shade and is equipped with trestle table, chairs and barbecue. The pool now has a safety fence.
A loggia (or terrace) by the house entrance has a sun awning and a dining area.
The house has two double bedrooms, a twin bedded room and bathroom (shower). The front half of the house is one open plan room with a built-in kitchen at one end and a sitting area in front of the fireplace with wood stove at the other. On one side is a large dining table.
The kitchen has a gas hob, electric oven, washing machine, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.
All that is shown in the pictures and described above is private to guests at the house.
The owners have an apartment at the other side of the building on the ground floor where they stay when in Italy. It is not available for renting.
