Set at the highest and most picturesque point of the historic centre of Amelia, along one of the town’s most characteristic pedestrian lanes, this enchanting townhouse offers a rare combination of authentic charm, generous living space and a truly exceptional feature: a beautiful private garden with spectacular far-reaching views.
The property welcomes guests on the ground floor with a spacious country-style kitchen, centred around a traditional fireplace that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen flows naturally into a formal dining room and an elegant reception room, where original frescoes and stunning panoramic views combine to create a setting of remarkable character and refinement. Such open vistas are seldom found within the walls of a historic Italian town.
The first floor is dedicated to the sleeping accommodation and comprises four generously proportioned rooms, currently arranged as three bedrooms and an attic room, together with two bathrooms. The flexible layout offers ample space for family living, visiting guests or a home office.
At lower-ground level, the property reveals another fascinating dimension, featuring a private study, an atmospheric grotto carved directly into the rock, and a substantial cellar. These unique spaces further enhance the property’s versatility and historic appeal.
From this level, there is direct access to the private garden of approximately 50 sq m, a genuinely rare luxury within the historic centre. This secluded outdoor haven provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining or simply relaxing while enjoying uninterrupted views across the rooftops of the town and the rolling Umbrian countryside beyond.
Ideally positioned for those seeking the timeless beauty of rural Italy without sacrificing convenience, the property enjoys excellent transport connections. Rome can be reached in less than an hour, making this an outstanding primary residence, holiday home or investment opportunity.
A distinctive period home where history, character and modern practicality come together in one of Umbria’s most captivating hilltop towns.
