Description

Welcome to the quintessential Italian experience, a beautifully resurrected 5 bedroom country house in the renowned Umbria region of Italy, specifically located in the picturesque city of Città di Castello, Perugia. With a wealth of history, this captivating stone-built former farmhouse takes you back to the 1800s, while its masterful restoration offers all the conveniences for modern living.

The splendid conversion of the old stable into a contemporary living room demonstrates architectural dexterity with an imposing brick arch and a stone fireplace. A large porch off this space overlooks a meticulously manicured lawn garden, making it the perfect relaxation spot or venue for entertaining guests.

The old barn has also been re-invented, showcasing gorgeous brick walls and substantial windows that frame tranquil views of the exterior terrace and garden. This now multifunctional open room includes a cosy fireplace and a private bathroom.

Adding to the overall appeal of this astoundingly alluring country home is the potential to build an in-ground swimming pool within the sprawling, cypress border garden, further enhancing the outdoor space.
