Category: Building Land/Plot

Plot of land located at Dancialena, 700 m
a.s.l.

View of the whole Val D`Esse Valley
Plot of land lies within Cortona`s
Environmental Protection (EP) area.

All permits have been granted
4.5 hectares of land available for purchase,
a small hunting lodge stood within the
property grounds.

A project plan was submitted to Cortona`s
city council, building permits to rebuild the
small hunting lodge as a passive house self-
sustainable house, with self-sufficient
energy supply and built entirely with
ecological materials, planning and building
permits were granted.

The project consists in the installation of
strategic photovoltaic panels to create a
renewable electricity supply, solar panels
for hot water, natural wood fibres and stone
walls for insulation, a ventilated roof and
special opaque glass panels designed to
capture the sun`s heat in the winter period,
but deflect the sun`s heat in the summer
period.

According to plan an electricity pole is
scheduled be removed in order to minimise
the effects of any electromagnetic pollution.

Case studies shown that buildings built
according to the specifications stated in this
project require 80% to 90% less energy
than those of standard, non-sustainable
buildings currently under construction.

The plan is to develop a `passive`
environment rather than just a `low
consumption` environment, as the lodge`s
energy consumption would be so low and its
heat loss so minimal that its winter heating
requirements, are estimated as being less
than 15kWh/(m2), it would be unnecessary
to use a wooden stove.

All fixtures, fittings and floors are expected
to be made out of natural materials:
Traditional Tuscan `cotto` tiles for the
floors,
ceramic tiles to be used in the bathroom and
kitchen and all doors, windows and shutters
are to be made of chestnut wood.

Building costs as defined by the project
plan, include a new access road, the
swimming pool, a well, all technical
paperwork and council taxes.
However a detailed estimate can be
requested prior to any commitment.

Services: Garden, Detached building,

Details:
The lodge`s technical data is available.

The lodge will be developed on two-floors.

Basement floor plan: basement will lead to
an outside covered pergola, one bedroom,
one bathroom, storage and boiler room,
there is the possibility to develop and build
an underground garage connected to the
main house.

Ground floor plan: will also lead to an
outside covered pergola, planned as a one-
room apartment, bedroom/living room, open
plan kitchen/dining area, wooden beam
ceilings, and a room/greenhouse facing
south which can be used throughout the
winter and summer period.
Total gross floor area 180 sqm (net floor
area 115 sqm)

The area surrounding the house has been
planned to include a summer kitchen, paved
in local stone, with cooking facilities and a
barbecue, a dining area for eating `al
fresco`, a swimming pool, a parking area,
various patios and terraces and a variety of
flower beds.
