Features and description

This property is a historic mid-19th-century farmhouse located in the municipality of Montegabbione, Umbria, in the province of Terni. It is a rural stone building characterized by classic architecture and typical features of its era. The farmhouse extends over two floors with a commercial area of approximately 400 square meters, distributed across more than 10 spacious and bright rooms. The property is partially restored, with the roof and exterior finishes well preserved, maintaining the historic and rural atmosphere of the complex intact.

Access to the property is via a dirt road stretching about 5 km, which ensures a high level of privacy and tranquility. The estate is immersed in over 4 hectares of private land, mainly wooded areas and wooded pasture. The grounds offer ample green space, ideal for potential agricultural activities or for the development of additional outdoor features.

The farmhouse is surrounded by an unspoiled natural setting, with excellent panoramic views overlooking the surrounding Umbrian countryside. The view extends across hills and woods, enhancing the rural character and seclusion of the location, far from disturbances such as infrastructure or industry. Although the access road is unpaved, it is passable and provides connections to larger towns such as Fabro, Chiusi, and Orvieto.

Constructed using traditional techniques and local materials, the building features stylistic solutions typical of the period, such as a roof with exposed wooden beams and terracotta floors. The structure comprises three units: One renovated with wood heating and lpg gas; a second unit requiring additional work to complete the restoration; and a third unit needing new systems and finishes. In particular, the installations need updating to improve energy efficiency. The interior spaces demonstrate good rationality and functionality in layout, with large traditional fireplaces that create a warm and welcoming atmosphere in the living areas.

There are currently three functioning bathrooms and two kitchens. Generally, some areas require only minor work, and overall, the farmhouse is an excellent candidate for a customized renovation with ample scope to modify the spaces. It thus offers an ideal base for a prestigious private residence or a hospitality facility in the agritourism sector.

In summary, this property represents a significant opportunity for those wishing to invest in a historic farmhouse in Umbria, featuring generous space, extensive land, and a strategic location within a valuable natural and cultural context. It requires targeted interventions to enhance its residential and hospitality potential. The property benefits from exposure on multiple sides, ensuring good natural light, and the environment is perfect for those seeking privacy and contact with nature. Distances from public and commercial services reflect the rural setting, emphasizing a slow-paced lifestyle.

State Of Repair

The property is in a partially restored condition, with significant interventions dating back to 2010 that mainly involved the exterior and some functional parts of the interior spaces. The exterior finishes are of good quality, featuring well-preserved exposed stone masonry, a sign of careful and consistent maintenance. The exterior fittings are original but renovated in the traditional style, ensuring a coherent aesthetic impact and good durability over time.

The interior spaces are laid out efficiently and functionally, facilitating a good distribution and natural flow between the different areas of the house. The interior finishes, although adequate, appear partially in need of completion or enhancement, with terracotta flooring typical of the period and exposed wooden beam ceilings that maintain the building’s historical authenticity. The walls, either raw masonry or plastered, are in fair condition, showing some signs of wear to be considered for any refinishing work.

The load-bearing structure, composed of elements dating back more than thirty years, requires attention to verify its stability and could benefit from further interventions to optimize the overall structural safety of the building. Major installations such as bathrooms and kitchens are absent, thus providing ample scope to design customized solutions that integrate with the existing spaces.

The general state of ordinary and extraordinary maintenance is good, with the roof and foundations holding well, ensuring a solid base for continuing restorations or future renovations. The exterior spaces, characterized by a well-maintained natural setting, offer a healthy and vibrant outdoor environment ideal for those seeking a high quality of life.

In summary, the property combines period elements with solid finishes, leaving room for interior enhancements that allow adaptation to more modern comfort and functional needs. The development potential is broad, suitable both for those aiming for a complete renovation and for those who wish to preserve and enhance the historic character of the building.

Utilities

The property has a water system, which is therefore well-established but has room for upgrades. Water supply comes from a spring, and it is recommended to consider drilling a new well. The sewage system was installed between 10 and 20 years ago, providing adequate functionality that meets basic standards.

The heating system is present and operates on wood and lpg gas. Some parts date from different periods, but overall it is advisable to keep the existing system, at least initially, and possibly improve it later.

Connections for water, gas, and electricity are present and active, ensuring essential utilities. The property does not have integrated ecological or sustainable systems, but these can be installed.

Use And Potential Uses

The layout allows for the development of a B&B or a tourist hospitality project in a building characterized by stone walls and ceilings with exposed beams, features that enhance its historic charm. Alternatively, it is possible to create your own retreat where you can enjoy complete privacy. The location guarantees stunning views and total seclusion. The property is suitable for completion or renovation work that can be carried out immediately.

Location

Located in the heart of Umbria, in Montegabbione, this property is situated in a secluded and panoramic area, ideal for those seeking tranquility and a connection with nature. The surrounding area is predominantly hilly, offering open views of the Umbrian countryside, with glimpses of woods and vineyards. Access is via a well-maintained gravel road, approximately 4 to 5 km long, ensuring privacy and immersion in the rural landscape. Within a short distance are historic centers rich in culture and tradition, with tourist destinations such as Orvieto about 25 km away and Lake Trasimeno less than 40 km away.
