Vacation Rental Description

Villa Casabianca is a beautiful country house dating back to the 
15th 
century situated on the border between Tuscany and Umbria. Only 15 
minutes by car from the Lago Trasimeno and only five minutes from 
Cortona, one of the 12 members of the holy alliance of etruscan 
cities (Dodecapolis). 
The Villa is surrounded by olive-grown terraces, vineyards, oak and 
chestnut forests, and overlooks the Chiana Valley. You find 
tranquillity and peace here, nature trails invite to explore the 
surrounding hills on foot or by bike. And yet, Cortonas silhouette 
can be seen from the house.
The restoration was supervised by the owner herself taking great 
care 
of preserving the traditional construction and fusing it with modern-
life comfort. Wooden beams and ceiling tiles date back to the 
origins 
of the Villa. According to historical reports the original structure 
of the Villa was the "casa torre" (now the three living-rooms) which 
then extended according to family needs to its present state.
The Villa consists of three floors divided into two renting 
units, "Villa Casabianca" and "Apartment Casabianca". 
Apartment Casabianca
The Apartment Casabianca is the ground floor of the Villa. The 
apartment is self-contained with an independent entrance and 
consists 
of one master bedroom, one twin bedroom, one bathroom with a shower-
cabin and necessary comforts. 
The former stable of the casa torre was converted into a comfortable 
spacious living/dining-room and a fully-equipped kitchen unit. Two 
independent terraces were created to ensure privacy and comfort. A 
footpath leads from one of the terraces to the pool which lies 
amidst 
olive and oak trees
Villa Casabianca
Villa Casabianca is on the 1st and 2nd floor of the Villa. The first 
floor has a fully-equipped, highly modern, designer kitchen, a large 
living/dining-room with an ancient fireplace, a master bedroom, a 
spacious bathroom with a bath-tub and a shower-cabin. The second 
floor has a large living-room, two master bedrooms, one bathroom 
with 
bath-tub and shower and one bathroom with a shower cabin. All three 
bathrooms count with modern-life comforts. 
The ceilings on the top floor are up to six meters high and provide 
a 
pleasant natural coolness in summer. Both floors allow a spectacular 
view on the surrounding hills and the Chiana Valley. The swimming 
pool lies amidst olive-trees from where you can enjoy unforgettable 
sunsets.
