The dreamy Umbrian hills frame this masterful 17th century residence, making a statement from the moment you pull into the private park. This is where centuries ago horse-drawn carriages would accompany local aristocrats, who walked along the fruit orchard, listened to opera concerts in the garrison hall, and enjoyed elegant dinners in the frescoed rooms.
Immersed in the beauty of century-old aristocratic homes, in this residence you will experience true luxury and utter comfort. Each room is imbued with timeless charm in its priceless custom details, marble floors, and silk wall coverings. On the property you also find a stately museum hosted in the old farm buildings where you can now admire the original use of the rooms and their ancient crafts.
The Residence
This majestic 2202 sq.m. Historical residence sits by a magical medieval hamlet nestled in the Umbrian hills. It was originally built in the 1600s and was passed down between local aristocratic families over the centuries.
It has been perfectly preserved in all its invaluable detailing, and it was recently renovated by the current owners. They have carefully maintained its historical and timeless features, while creating a state-of-the-art modern luxury residence. The property is composed of a main home, the old farm buildings which have been turned into a museum, the guardian’s house and a large garage area.
The Main Home
Walking up from the private park you access the main building through a stately entrance door, where centuries ago carriages would ride through. You’Re met by a large foyer, featuring antique stone floors and an ancient underground water tank. From here you access the former garrison hall, characterized by grand cross vaults. This room used to host opera concerts, thanks to its great acoustics.
First Floor:
From the entrance hall, a Bernini-style staircase leads you to the upper level – the noble floor, where the aristocratic families would live. It is usually the most decorated floor, and it showcases coffered ceilings, marble and cotto floors, silk-lined walls, and precious frescoes from 1853.
The staircase opens into an ample reception room, which is lavishly decorated and features an impressive stone fireplace, silk-lined walls and frescoed vaulted ceilings. This floor is composed of a number of outstandingly elegant rooms.
You find several formal sitting areas, alongside with a sumptuous dining room with vaulted ceilings, fireplace, and access to the panoramic balcony. From there you enter the breakfast room, the richly decorated kitchen, and a library with fireplace and spectacular coffered ceilings. This level’s floorplan is completed by two elegant bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and private dressing rooms.
Second Floor:
This floor is entirely dedicated to the four grand suites, some of which also present a private fireplace and bathrooms. They’Re all elegantly decorated and display high ceilings, frescoes, antique cotto floors and beamed ceilings, and amazing panoramic views.
Underground Floor:
This level used to be employed as the former servants’ quarters. These exceptional spaces flaunt vaulted ceilings, stone walls, and a magical, evocative atmosphere. It would be the perfect location for an elegant Spa with indoor pools, or to host elegant events.
The Outbuildings
Next to the main home you find several other outbuildings. The former farm buildings have been turned into a museum exhibiting the original usage of the different rooms and ancient crafts but can be used for a variety of purposes. The former guardian’s house can be turned into an additional guest home. Here you also find a spacious garage for you and your guests’ comfort.
