Restored Property With 2 Houses And Heated Pool Near Città di Castello In Umbria (M4006)
Nestled in the hills of Umbria, on the border of Tuscany, with Cortona only a 35 minute drive away, this restored property with stunning views, is peaceful and yet not isolated, as it is part of a tiny hamlet.
The property for sale consists of two houses (one of which a former Seccatoio - Tobacco barn) connected by a covered terrace area. Both houses are autonomous and the current owners have lived in one of the houses and rented out the second house. Uphill are two more houses which are not part of the property and are used as holiday homes.
The property has been lovingly restored to a high level of living comfort but with respect for its authentic character using traditional chestnut beams and terra cotta ceilings and floors which remain nice and cool in the hot summer months.
The holiday home has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the ground floor, a modern eat-in kitchen and a dining room with access to the garden and a large terrace for al fresco dining with sunshade, barbecue and amazing views over the surrounding countryside. An internal staircase leads to the upper floor, to a reception room (the former tobacco tower) with very high ceilings, making this space feel very bright and airy. The room gives access to a wonderful covered terrace with breathtaking views. Two further bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, extend this living level. In addition, one of the bedrooms has its own private terrace again with wonderful views.
The private house has a living room, an eat-in kitchen with dining room, a bedroom and a bathroom and a pantry on the lower floor. An internal staircase leads to the upper floor with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. In addition, there is another room (actually used as a studio), which can be reached from the internal staircase as well as from an external staircase.
The plot of land extends down into the valley and the beautifully landscaped and heated saltwater pool with sun terrace is on a different level, so that it can be easily reached from both houses. The area around the pool with lavender beds and a variety of roses and shrubs including rosemary, sage and thyme ensure a typical Mediterranean atmosphere.
The rest of the plot is mostly part of the woodland that surrounds the property. Due to the hillside location, there are wonderful views of the valley below and the charming typical hills of this popular area.
The high-quality renovation, the high level of living comfort, the exceptionally beautiful location (close to the border with Tuscany) and the versatile use possibilities, give the property a great appeal.
