Description

Cortesi Luxury Real Estate offers for sale

On the eastern shores of Lake Trasimeno, in the heart of Umbria, stands the Castle of Zocco, a complex that combines the charm of history with the concreteness of a rare real estate opportunity. Its origins date back to 1274, when it was built next to a Franciscan convent. In the later centuries the property took on an increasingly relevant role: initially called "villa", in the fifteenth century it was converted into "castrum" thanks to the strengthening of the walls and towers, becoming a military and strategic garage for the control of the lakeshore.
Once protected by seven towers and three access doors, the complex still retains part of the medieval walls and five towers, which immediately restore its original majesty. Inside, the architectural evidence is many: medieval remains, rural buildings of later times, a fifteenth-century mill and a chapel that reveals the religious vocation of the place. Each structure tells of the adaptation of the castle for different uses, from the military principals to agricultural life, up to becoming a reference point for the surrounding community.
Currently the existing covered area is about 1,650 square meters, but thanks to the approved urban planning documentation and authorized recovery work, it is possible to double this size up to around 3,300 square meters of total useful area. This possibility of extension, which involves the renovation of the existing buildings and the recovery of those historically documented, is a decisive aspect for the development of a coherent and sustainable project.
The complex covers over six hectares of private land, offering ample outdoor space that allows you to imagine both architectural and landscape development works.
The location of the Castle of Zocco is another strong point. Located in a private but not isolated area, it overlooks Lake Trasimeno, offering panoramic views of rare charm. The property is just a few minutes from the villages of Magione and Monte del Lago, known for their authenticity and essential services they offer. Less than half an hour away by car you can reach Perugia, while art cities such as Assisi, Cortona, Arezzo and Siena are within walking distance, as are the main roads to Florence and Rome. The proximity to the international airport of Umbria, connected to several European capitals, makes the property easily accessible also from abroad.
The potential for use is many. The size of the complex, the presence of diversified spaces and the naturalistic context make it the ideal base for a high quality hospitality project, such as a boutique hotel, a resort with services dedicated to wellness, or a cultural center that can accommodate events and initiatives of international scope. At the same time, the configuration of the property allows you to think of a private residence, exclusive but integrated with the surrounding territory.
Buying the Castle of Zocco means entering contact with a rare historical well on the market, but also with a concrete perspective of development. Each stone retains the memory of centuries of life and, at the same time, awaits a project that knows how to give it new vitality. In this balance between past and future there is the true strength of the property: the possibility of combining history, architecture and landscape in a long-term investment, able to distinguish itself in the Italian and European real estate landscape.
