Description
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.

Description
Casa Rossa is a suggestive farmhouse of very remote origins. It stands in a very panoramic and peaceful position, overlooking vineyards and olive groves. It can be reached by following an unpaved road (1,5 km) that winds its way through rows of vineyards, and even before you get there you will feel you have been catapulted into another era. The origins of this house are in fact very old and date back at least to 1500, as documented in the register of souls of the parish of Pieve San Giovanni.
The owners, Leone and Giuseppe, have intentionally maintained its rustic, almost medieval appearance in order to preserve its noble origins. The wooden and brick ceilings, the original terracotta floors and the simple and essential furnishings are a rare example of the rural tradition in Tuscany. The farmhouse is particularly suitable for couples or families who love nature and simplicity and want to get away from modern life for a while.
Pets are welcome (extra charge could be required).
You will find yourself facing an incomparable view on summer evenings, sitting by the pool (size 5 x 9 m, depth 1.20 m, private for guests - open from 16 May to 12 September) or dining in the furnished pergola in front of the house. And if you feel like leaving the quiet of the place for a while, the city of Arezzo is reachable in 15 minutes by car, and throughout the year it offers countless folkloristic and cultural events, including the Giostra del Saracino and the Antique Fair.
For horse lovers, there is a riding school less than 500 m from the house that organises rides through the vineyards and hills. Casa Rossa
