Full Description

Location Embraced by 8,7 hectare land with vineyard and olivegrove, Casale Minimalista rises on a hilltop, deep in the green countryside with stunning views over the valley and Todi, which is only 10 minutes’ drive. The property is conveniently connected both to the quickroad E45, only 7 km away, and to the highway A1 to Rome and Florence (Orvieto toll), 28 km away. In 30 minutes it is possibile to reach many Umbrian towns, such as, Orvieto (31 km), Perugia (52 km) and Spoleto (53 km). Description of buildings Plunged into lush oak woods, the estate is composed of the manor’s farmhouse, enriched by a gracious lawn, set on a hill overlooking the olive grove and the vineyard. The swimming-pool is secluded, as well as the outbuilding which consists of a studio with bed, a kitchenette, a bathroom and a mezzanine. The main farmhouse is arranged over two floors and can be converted into two separate apartments. The ground floor hosts a living area with living-room/dining area with fireplace and kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, laundry-room with toilet and cellar. The upper floor is linked to the ground floor by an internal staircase, but it is also accessible from an outside entrance. The first floor hosts a living-room connected to a kitchenette, a studio with fireplace, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Condition The sober, minimalist and linear style is the result of a choice geared to carry out as few alterations as possibile, in order to preserve the original structure without renouncing modern life’s amenities. The exterior sandstone walls are balanced by the bright interiors with painted walls. The floors feature changeable-coloured concrete coating, which recalls the ochre tones of the local stone, while the ceilings show exposed wooden beams and handmade cotto tiles.
