Description

(Reference number: 507055) A watchtower has existed on this very spot for almost 1,000 years, standing sentry over the spectacular Umbrian countryside. Built from stone recovered from the original structure, this home was lovingly reconstructed from the ground up, with the watchful eye of the Fine Arts Institute ensuring a faithful recreation of the original. Work was completed back in 2005, so the four-storey tower comes complete with all the conveniences you'd expect of a modern home, enriched by architectural flourishes, antique furniture and elegant tapestries that bring a certain charm to your stay. Sitting at the centre of 6 hectares, wander the flower-filled gardens, pass through the ancient olive grove, and uncover a stunning saltwater pool surrounded by all manner of sun-soaked seating options, plus a trampoline to entertain the children. This is also where you'll find a modern annexe. Fully self-contained – complete with a full kitchen, light-filled living area, shower room and bedroom – it makes for a perfect couple's retreat or a step-free escape for older members of the family. The purpose of any stay here should be to maximise the time you spend within the home. However, if you find yourself with an urge to explore, the Solfagnano Castle is within walking distance, while the pristine medieval centre of Perugia is just 20km away. Home truths: *Given the location, a car is a necessity – there's on-site parking available for up to three cars *Child-friendly amenities such as a cot and highchair are available on request *All fireplaces are ornamental *The farm worker's house, 30m from the parking area, is separated by a thick hedge, guaranteeing complete privacy *The home is set over four levels, so it may not be suitable for guests with more limited mobility *Access to the home is via a private entrance *The annexe is entirely self-contained and sits separate from the main house *The pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October *The on-site church is no longer officiated so no bells will disturb your stay Thinking of selling?
