Prestigious flat for sale on the noble floor of an ancient palace located in the historic centre of Cortona, a stone's throw from Piazza della Repubblica, Palazzo del Comune and Piazza Signorelli.
Cortona is an Etruscan town famous for its beauty, surrounded by walls, rising on a hill 600 metres above sea level. The town, small but of great historical and cultural interest, has been chosen as a location for numerous films.

This historic palace, strategically located with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, is a unique property in terms of its characteristics, location and prestige.

The first nucleus of the palace was built in 1200 by the powerful feudal lords of the mountain of Cortona.
The building was later restored in the 17th century by Marquis Ranieri Borbone Petrella, who called upon the best artists of the time to fresco its interior, in the tradition of the great school of Cortona that had Luca Signorelli and Pietro da Cortona as its masters. At the entrance to the prestigious palace is the family coat of arms, depicting an eagle, referring to the role the Petrella family played as imperial vicars.

The second floor of the palace, which can be reached via the internal stairs, houses the flat, which opens onto its first reception room: the perfectly preserved original floors, the fireplace, the stucco work on the walls and the coffered ceiling more than three metres high enhance the magnificence of the room.
The corridor leads to two large bedrooms, whose splendid frescoed vaulted ceilings with Baroque-style curtains and pelmets recall the past. A true riot of colour, charm and art.
The corner brickwork kitchen, fully functional, is located in a large room, also with frescoed vaulted ceilings, albeit in less bright tones.
There are two large bathrooms on the floor.
The last impressive room is a private chapel with a marble altar and frescoed vaulted ceiling.

The whole flat has air conditioning.

The flat is certainly of great impact: history and art seem to have stopped time, keeping its extraordinary beauty intact.

Distances: Arezzo just under 30 km, Florence 116 km and San Francesco di Assisi International Airport about 80 km.
