Full Description

A casa padronale, a landowners house; with internal stairs and an external coat of arms showing a bulls head; is attached on one side to a brick built late medieval tower and on the other side to a casa colonica with external stairway and a large internal fireplace. Across the courtyard a very large two/three storey barn completes this group of properties. Tiled floors, chestnut beams, old woodwork, stone walls, arches and all the details, which, when combined, will create beautiful homes, in certainly one of the most attractive, original, and architecturally interesting selection of buildings in this area. Close to the highly acclaimed ancient walled town of Montone, one of Italys ten most beautiful, and only twelve minutes drive from the bustling city of Umbertide, all the properties enjoy outstanding and extensive views over open countryside. Perugia, and its airport and the E45 motorway are within easy reach. Rome, Firenze, Verona, Bologna and the Adriatic sea coast are just 2 hours drive away, as are the Ryanair airports of Forlí and Ancona. Ten medieval cities, three golf courses, several riding schools and stables, two large lakes; and for light aircraft, clubs and landing strips; are all within easy reach.This hamlet is gradually being transformed into some eight individual properties. The project is underway and an adjacent field has been turned into private gardens, fully planted, maintained and equipped with watering systems, and work is in progress on a communal swimming pool, shaded terraces, drives, individual access, and private garages which will awaken this sleeping beauty and transform it into a very elegant and sought after community. A management committee, owned by the residents, will be formed to undertake maintenance, and also letting, if required. The proximity of sharing, caring neighbours could provide companionship, interest and assistance for those times when it may be needed, someone to hold the keys, order the gas, welcome guests and generally share the reasons why the prospective final purchasers have chosen this part of green Umbria. Palazetto II. As it is becoming increasingly difficult to find reasonably sized houses in attractive locations in our area, this group of houses is being offered as one of the first hamlets to be fully converted to a northern European requirement. Prices are between 280 euro for a 80 sqm house and 479 euro for a 137 sqm.
