The Fig Tree and the Owl

Just a few kilometers from the art city of Arezzo, nestled in the rolling hills of the Valdichiana Aretina and just a short walk from a quaint village, stands this fully renovated two-story building, featuring spacious, bright interiors and a park with a swimming pool. Notable historic towns are located within a few kilometers, such as Monte San Savino, Cortona, Lucignano, Pienza, and Montalcino. The wine routes and the cities of Arezzo, Siena, and Florence offer unforgettable excursions to discover the most famous parts of Tuscany and neighboring Umbria, all while enjoying the relaxation the property provides.
The property is spread over two levels; the two glass doors leading to the first floor open—one into the living room with sofas and a fireplace, the other into the dining area and kitchen, connected by a large interior arch. The first floor is completed by a guest bathroom with a shower stall and a staircase leading to the upper floor, the sleeping area. This includes two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, one double bedroom, one twin bedroom, and a bathroom. Il Fico e la Civetta is set within a flat, fully fenced-in park with a swimming pool, bordered along its entire perimeter by tall hedges and shady pine trees. Once you pass through the entrance gate, you’ll immediately find the covered parking area, conveniently located right next to the main entrance. The swimming pool is situated in front of the house and can be reached across the lawn. The pool measures 6×12 m and is 1.50 deep, with a sunbathing area; it is entirely lined with gray PVC and equipped with internal lighting. The pool is treated with chlorine, and the pool deck is paved for about 2 meters, where lounge chairs, small tables, umbrellas, and a solar-heated shower are provided. This corner of Tuscany, the Valdichiana Aretina, is characterized by numerous medieval villages perched on the hillsides, such as Monte San Savino, Marciano della Chiana, Cortona, Civitella in Val di Chiana, Lucignano, and Castiglion Fiorentino, to name a few. Il Fico e la Civetta is located in the municipality of Marciano della Chiana, about 1 km from the hamlets of Cesa and Monte San Savino, where you’ll find shops and services. The property is ideally situated for exploring much of central Tuscany, including the Orcia and Chianti valleys, the Crete Senesi, and the major art cities of Arezzo, Siena, and Florence, as well as all the most beautiful sites in the nearby region of Umbria.
