Syrah Residence in Cortona, Arezzo, Tuscany – COR395

Nestled in the countryside near Cortona, this elegant part of a farmhouse forms part of an exclusive, fully renovated residential complex, open on three sides and gracefully laid out over three levels, covering a total of approximately 259 m². The ground floor opens generously onto the garden through large French windows, revealing a spacious living area — ideal as an additional lounge or self-contained guest accommodation, furnished with a double sofa bed and equipped with a private en-suite bathroom with shower. Moving up to the main floor, light floods into an open-plan living-dining room, warmed by a fireplace, flanked by a separate kitchen, a guest bathroom and a utility room; two further French windows lead to a private patio, bringing the outdoors indoors. The top floor houses the sleeping quarters: two bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom featuring a bath, a third bathroom with a shower, and a sunny study with panoramic views — a peaceful retreat currently used as a study, easily adaptable into a third bedroom or a home office. Outside, a private garden of 553 m² and a dedicated parking space complete the property, whilst residents enjoy exclusive access to the complex’s extraordinary facilities: a 17×7 m swimming pool, a fully equipped gym and a wellness centre featuring a Turkish bath, a hot tub, sensory showers, a Finnish sauna and an ice waterfall. Built in the 1970s and masterfully restored around 2013, the residence combines contemporary comfort with the timeless charm of Tuscan tradition: terracotta floors and rustic features have been preserved throughout, whilst incorporating every modern convenience. The property is fully serviced, with independent LPG heating supported by heat pumps, a connection to the municipal water supply, air conditioning and a charging point for electric vehicles. Ideal both as a permanent home and as a summer retreat, the property is also naturally suited to continuing the thriving accommodation business that was previously established here. Created through the careful restoration of a group of farmhouses dating back to the early 20th century, Borgo Syrah is now a place where the peace and beauty of the Tuscan countryside blend with every comfort of contemporary life.
