Nestled in the heart of the Umbrian countryside, this historic farmhouse spans three floors and offers ample spaces to live in harmony with nature. The land, over three hectares, includes vineyards, olive groves, and woods, providing an authentic connection with the rural landscape. From its panoramic position, you can enjoy an open view that invites relaxation and contemplation. This setting guarantees a unique balance between privacy and proximity to all essential services, promoting a lifestyle that combines tranquility, tradition, and convenience.
Nestled in the hilly landscape of Città della Pieve, in Umbria, this historic farmhouse, recently restored in 2012, covers a built area of approximately 417 square meters spread over three floors. The property is surrounded by over 33,700 square meters of private land, including vineyards, category B olive groves, irrigated and hillside arable fields, as well as coppice and mixed woodland, offering a natural environment of rare quality and privacy.
Access is via a roughly 1.5 km long dirt road, providing a good balance between seclusion and convenient connectivity to main services, which are located about 5 km away. The building features a main entrance that leads directly to the various levels, characterized by an original load-bearing structure dating back to the 19th century, with terracotta finishes and tiled floors, elements that emphasize the historic style of the property.
On the ground floor, there are two spacious and functional kitchens, ideal for managing separated living areas, accompanied by three bathrooms equipped with showers and ancillary spaces that enhance daily functionality. The main living room enjoys ample natural light thanks to its southeast and southwest exposure and offers an open view of the surrounding landscape, perfect for enjoying the seasons while combining comfort and atmosphere.
The interior spaces, although well flowing, have moderate rationality; this is reflected in the layout of the twelve rooms in total, distributed between living areas and service rooms, arranged to ensure independence and functionality. Additionally, the property includes a garage with covered parking spaces, an essential feature for practical daily countryside living.
The heating systems are independent and have been updated over the last ten years, ensuring efficiency even during cold seasons; the electrical system, renewed in the same period, supports modern installations. Among the external features, there is a large panoramic green space facing south, which enhances the location with views over the enchanting Umbrian landscapes, free from disturbing elements nearby.
Its proximity to art cities and reasonable distances from airports and transport routes make it an attractive opportunity for those seeking a retreat combining nature and culture.
State of repair
The facades are made of exposed stone, the basements feature wooden beams, the floors are in terracotta and gres, and the window frames are made of wood.
Utilities
The property is equipped with an autonomous heating system, installed between five and ten years ago, ensuring efficient operation. Both the electrical and plumbing systems were updated within the same period, guaranteeing reliability and safety. Water supply is connected to the public network, and the sewage system is old, having been in place for over thirty years. There is no air conditioning system, as the existing one dates back more than thirty years and is therefore not operational. Internet connection is available via satellite dish, and there is a stable electrical network connection. The energy efficiency is classified as category G, indicating potential for improvement measures.
Use and Potential Uses
The property, with spacious and distinct areas, is suitable as a country residence or a primary home. The historic building, featuring terracotta floors and multiple entrances, also allows for a functional conversion into a hospitality structure such as an agriturismo or bed & breakfast. The panoramic location and adequate privacy enhance a hospitality business connected to rural tourism. Proximity to services and transportation facilitates accessibility, making it a suitable option for those seeking an investment in the hospitality sector or a residence immersed in nature.
