Description:

ITALY, UMBRIA, PERUGIA, TODI

A fascinating medieval castle dating from around the year 1000 with views over Todi. Completely renovated, with large living areas, 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms. 17 hectares and 4 outbuildings.

Geographic Position

The panoramic location, with a magnificent view over Todi, was actually a strategic choice: the tower of the castle was in fact part of a system of towers created to alert the city in case of danger.

Over the centuries the building lost its function and in the late 1990s was purchased, fully renovated, restored with great attention and transformed into a prestigious and comfortable residence.

Todi is just 8 km away, while other important towns of Umbria as Orvieto (32 km), Perugia (50 km) and Spoleto (55 km) can be reached in less than an hour by car, Orvieto and Città della Pieve in just a few minutes.

The nearest airport is that of Perugia, 52 km away, while the international airports of Rome Ciampino (155 km) and Rome Fiumicino (173 km) are located approximately 2 hours by car.

Description of buildings

The property is composed of the castle of gross area of 671 square meters, and four outbuildings of agricultural use of 35, 39, 40 and 50 sqm.

The castle is used as a charming home, and is spread over several levels, of which the first three are connected with internal elevator.

The ground floor is the large living/dining room with fireplace, kitchen and a bathroom for guests.

The first floor, reached by internal stairs, with elevator or a separate entrance from the outside, is composed of a large living room divided by a double archway supported by one column.

Still on this level but with independent access from the inner courtyard, we find a private double bedroom with private bathroom.

On the second floor, the sleeping area comprises three bedrooms with private bathrooms and a study / library on two levels from which you can access the tower with a sitting room and a bathroom on the third floor and a further bedroom with balcony on the fourth floor.

The four annexes with areas of 35, 39, 40 and 50 square meters are used for storage, garage, tools and are only a short distance from the castle.

The castle has been restored and is in excellent condition.

There are terracotta tiled floors, wooden and terracotta ceilings, stone fireplaces, and original wooden framing.

The property is surrounded by 17 hectares of land, of which about 2 hectares are an Italianate garden, partly bordered by high stone walls.

In a private position and facing south-west we find the swimming pool of 10m x 5m.
