In the heart of the historic village of Cetona, in front of Palazzo Minutelli – now the Town Hall and known for the nineteenth-century frescoes by Antonio Cappelletti – there is this extraordinary designer residence of approximately 250 m². Designed by a renowned Roman architect, this house represents a rare combination of traditional Tuscan architecture and contemporary refinement, with craftsmanship that is perceived in every detail.
Cetona is an ancient Tuscan village with origins dating back to the Paleolithic, known for its historical continuity through the Etruscan and Roman eras. Since 2001, it has been part of the prestigious list of the “Most beautiful villages in Italy”, and its medieval history is still visible in the fortress fortified by the Sienese in the 15th century, with an urban structure that preserves traces of the different eras.
