4 bedrooms country house, 299 m²

Monte Santa Maria Tiberina, Perugia (province)

Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, this exceptional estate offers the perfect mix of a traditional farmhouse and a modern chapel conversion. Outside, an extra-long swimming pool with a sleek dark liner provides the ultimate swimming experience.
Santa Lucia is an exquisite estate comprising a beautifully restored 13th-century chapel, (originally dedicated to Santa Lucia) and classic farmhouse, set within mature gardens with a spectacular swimming pool. Perfectly positioned on the border of Tuscany and Umbria, the property commands panoramic views across the valley toward historic Monterchi.
Restored in distinct phases—the farmhouse in 2013, followed by the chapel and swimming pool in 2017—each residence boasts a unique design identity. The farmhouse exudes cozy cottage charm with traditional cotto floors and warm, inviting tones. In contrast, the former chapel blends an ancient stone exterior with a sleek modern extension, framing interiors styled in a cool, minimalist Nordic aesthetic.
The swimming pool is located in the best corner of the garden, with a timber pergola.
The property also includes an unrestored portion of a ruin with an adjoining field, acquired in later stage to complete privacy.
