The infinity pool measures 10x10 square metres on 4 sides and is equipped with a patio. Several seating areas in the garden offer total privacy and relax. The interior spaces of the Villa are furnished with custom-made sofas and armchairs and are characterized by a design that combines perfectly contemporary works of art, belonging to the collection of the owners of the house .

The 3 km white and unpaved road that leads to the property from Sarteano runs through beech and oak woods and borders the St. Francis’cave and a small medieval convent dedicated to San Bartolomeo. It is said that St. Francis visited the area from nearby Assisi and lived in the caves in the woods, one of which has a large cross engraved in the floor.

The property overlooks the towns of Chianciano, Chiusi, Cortona and Citta’della Pieve and the lakes of Montepulciano, Chiusi and Trasimeno. From the site of the property there are several paths ideal for beautiful walks, totally immersed in silence, broken only by birdsong.

In Windsor Castle there is a drawing by Leonardo da Vinci, who was called to the area by the De Medici family, which is a bird's eye view of the exact panorama seen from Villa San Bartolomeo.

If you want to consider doing something sportive with your family, kids, friends or group, you can opt for our guided canoe or paddle tour of Lake Trasimeno, and combine it with a guided hike of its small island named Isola Maggiore.

You can also have a wine tasting event at Via della Stella of our friend Chiara Vinciarelli. Upon request Chiara also combines this wine tasting with a lunch.
