Ancient Villa with private park and swimming pool

On a hillock adjacent to the town, surrounded by 2 hectares of park, in a setting that ensures the utmost privacy, stands a magnificent Historic Villa with swimming pool and annex, guardian’s house with garage and vegetable garden. We are in the presence of a wonderful property with a long history behind it. It is the rebuilding of a monastery from the 1600s, of which the chapel and sacristy are preserved, which in turn had been built on the ancient ruin of a Roman villa, in memory of which a precious mosaic floor is preserved intact, dating from the 2nd century A.D. protected by the Superintendency of Archaeological Heritage. Finally, in the 1980s, the famous Japanese architect and designer Kazuhide Takahama oversaw its entire renovation and was able to reinvent this luxurious mansion and give it a unique touch, dealing particularly with the design of the park and gardens.The manor house has an area of about 950 square meters. Upon entering on the ground floor, we are confronted by a hallway with vaulted ceilings that opens on the other side, providing access to the pool area. In addition to the halls with walls covered in “Stucco Veneziano” and gold leaf, we find the ancient chapel and sacristy, a large kitchen with fireplace, utility rooms, and two bathrooms. We are nestled in light that comes inside thanks to the large windows overlooking the park.On the upper floor we find a long 17th-century hallway, onto which the four bedrooms open, each with en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet. Going up to the second floor, we find a large living room with fireplace, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and an additional room with the necessary connections to convert it into a kitchen. From the ground floor we go down to the basement. Here we will experience the excitement of coming across a 25 square meter room that preserves the ancient Roman mosaic, as well as three rooms with brick vaults and a wine cellar. The garden features a majestic century-old oak tree, fruit trees, and a succession of pergolas and nooks where we can sit and rejoice in nature. We then find the heated swimming pool with adjacent changing rooms with bathrooms and a gym. The outbuilding, of about 170 square meters, an 18th-century dwelling, is divided inside into an entrance hall, kitchen, dining room, living room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and has a wood-burning oven on the ground floor. The guardian’s house, of about 160 sqm, consists of a kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom and is newly built. Adjacent to it there are four heated garages. The property has solar panels for hot water, a water storage tank for the garden and a well. It is surrounded by a park of 2 hectares, and there is the possibility of purchasing an additional 2 hectares. In order to admire all its beauty, all that remains is to arrange a visit.

The Villa, immersed in the total privacy of its private park, is in an excellent location, close to every necessary service and at the same time is the perfect setting for enjoying the panorama of the rolling Umbrian hills.
