Property description:
A small group of country buildings in which there are two Italian families; with their own independent access, parking, entrances and gardens; a casa padronale, a landowner’s house, which is attached on one side to a brick-built late medieval tower, also with independent access. parking etc. Adjacent but separate is a large two/three storey barn, now converted to town houses in the country.
This house has been rebuilt in accordance with the strict local standards and incorporates full anti-seismic measures, acoustic and thermal insulation. The fixtures and finishings are now needed in order to transform this shell into an attractive home. Tiled floors, chestnut beams, crafted woodwork, stone walls, and all the small details, which, when combined, will create a beautiful dwelling 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 Italy’s ten most beautiful; only ten minutes drive from the bustling city of Umbertide, and fifteen minutes from Citta’ di Castello. This property enjoys outstanding and extensive views over open countryside. Perugia and Asissi, and the Ryanair airport, via the nearby E45 motorway, are within easy reach, only some 30 minutes. Rome, Firenze, Verona, Bologna and the Adriatic sea coast are just 2 hours drive away, as are the Ryanair airports of Bologna/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. Restaurants, bars and cafes without number, good food, excellent wines and friendly natives all have combined to create this wonderful area.
This hamlet is gradually being transformed into some eight individual properties, three of which are now sold. The project is almost completed and several of the private gardens, fully planted, maintained and equipped with watering systems, are now maturing. Applications are being processed for a communal swimming pool, 12m x 6m, private shaded terraces, individual access, and private parking lots are transforming the whole area into a very elegant and sought-after community. A management committee, owned by the residents, has been 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.
As it is becoming increasingly difficult to find reasonably sized houses in attractive locations in the Upper Tiber Valley of Umbria, this group of houses is being offered as one of the first hamlets to be fully converted to a northern European requirement. The first three units are now sold, five are in a shell stage, with finished floors, walls and roofs.
The price quoted above is for the building, to be sold in its current condition. Finishing costs of some € 600sqmt will be required to complete the project, the property will be finished to a high standard with considerable care given to purchaser’s requirements, style, and taste.
Under-floor central heating, double glazing, individual styling and layout and a host of other artistic and architectural details which will become obvious when an inspection is arranged and other properties that we are working on, or have finished, are viewed.
Properties can be fully finished, externally and internally, all materials used will be of a high standard and any individual “extras” required can be included at the planning and pricing stage.
If you are looking for a modern, fully-equipped property, constructed to the highest standards, in the classical and traditional style by the oldest established designers/architects in the Upper Tiber Valley, (since 1983), in an elegant setting, in the heart of understated Umbria, then this building may be what you are seeking, but haven’t yet found. All the real or imagined problems of budgeting, planning, bureaucracy, design, supervision and construction are being controlled and settled well in advance of your purchase. A complete worry-free package, key in hand, coffee on the hob, and the high, and increasing cost of houses in this area will ensure the protection of your investment.
No agency commission to pay, titles are clean and clear, thus saving the additional expense of legal costs and searches, and full planning and rebuilding permissions are in hand.
