Ancient Benedictine Abbey, for sale in Spoleto, Perugia - Umbria



RIF. PER108




Immersed in a vast 221 hectares of land, rich in centuries-old woods and with a view that seems to have no boundaries, lies an ancient Benedictine abbey with a consecrated church and an annexe, for sale in the vicinity of Spoleto. Situated on top of the Spoletini Mountains, at an altitude of over 1000 metres, this former abbey stands majestically, dominating an extraordinary landscape that stretches as far as Todi and Spoleto.

.



The surrounding area is characterised by centuries-old trees, some of which are over 400 years old, and pastures that wind along a classic white road, leading to an unspoilt corner of central Italy. The structure dates back to the year 1000, built on the remains of a Roman temple, whose foundations are still visible and mark the contours of a glorious past. Although it has suffered destruction over the centuries, it was converted into a farmhouse in the 19th century and, after careful restoration in 2003, it now stands as a splendid residence, retaining its stone walls and the enchanting rustic atmosphere of medieval buildings.





Inside, there is a large hall with ceilings more than 6 metres high and a monumental fireplace. A gallery and a consecrated chapel make the house perfect for ceremonies and weddings. The property offers two large rooms on both the ground and first floors, ready to be customised.

.



The former farm outbuilding has been completely renovated. It is now a rustic house with a porch, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and high-quality finishes.

.



The natural water source ensures water supply for domestic use and irrigation. There is a generator for electricity. It is possible to install solar and wind panels. A swimming pool can also be built.

.



The Martani Mountains separate the Tiber Valley from the Spoleto Valley. From here one enjoys unique views: a dozen kilometres away one can see Todi with the bell tower of San Fortunato. The glittering city of Perugia and the cathedral of Orvieto can be glimpsed beyond the Tiber gorge. Assisi, Montefalco, Trevi, Spello and Spoleto can also be distinguished in the distance.

.



Services and shops are in Massa Martana, only 6 km away.





This property is unique. It is ideal as a private residence in a secluded location. Perfect as a retreat in the green heart of Umbria or for events, weddings and tourism. A rare opportunity to live or invest in an unspoilt corner of Italy.
