On the floor of Cortona’s famous golden valley, lies the prestigious Villa Icaro. The seventeenth century structure boasts a history of noble origins. Built as a country estate for a prominent family from Arezzo with olives groves stretching into the surrounding foothills, the property of approximately 960m2 (~10,000 sq ft) features a tennis court, sunroom, covered barbecue with wood-burning stove, and a swimming pool. The main villa boasts nine bedrooms and eight bathrooms. It is located an hour from Perugia’s airport. A family crest adorns the main villa, which is comprised of traditional service zones such as kitchen and laundry on the ground floor, as well as the cellar, a chapel with frescoes, and a lower den. Exteriorly, an imperial (double) staircase provides access to the main floor where three en-suite bedrooms can be found, as well as the entrance hall which doubles as a reception room with its large marble fireplace, coffered ceilings, and adjacent frescoed hall. A library, den, and three more en-suite bedrooms comprise the top floor, which is topped with a spacious attic. All rooms are adorned with gorgeous wood paneling, while each bathroom is walled in varying shades of marble. A sprawling forty-five hectare park (112 acres) is centrally lined by biennially blooming crepe myrtle trees and a meticulous selection of botanical bounty all viewable from the event space which annexes the main villa via a walkway housing citrus trees in winter with its oversized windows. The Nymphaeum is a centrally located binding point which gracefully adorns the annex, featuring mythological statues and an impressive fountain. Three set apart buildings can be renovated accordingly. These include a lofty barn, the lemon house with its private apartments upstairs, and a private guest house with independent garage and apartments.
