6 bedrooms detached house, 150 m²

Ficulle, Terni (province)

In an enchanting setting in the heart of
Umbria, in one of the most authentic and quiet alleys of the charming Medieval
town Ficulle, lies this property for sale. Have you always dreamt of your own
Italian dream home? Then this is your chance. The property is located in Via Castel
Maggiore 14 and is the highest in the old town centre. But there are many other
features that make its location unique: in the heart of the centre, without
traffic, so pleasantly calm, a stone’s throw from the town hall, the theatre,
the church, the hairdresser, and some other shops. The town park with
playground, sports fields, the bank, and a couple of nice restaurants are all
at walking distance. In short, all you need, within reach.Originally, there were three units with
service area, for a total
surface of 150 sqm. These have been merged to one land registry unit, so
it can be used as a single dwelling, or as three separate apartments, with the
possibility to create a fourth floor, allowing for the creation of a maisonette
house. With its spacious downstairs area and basements on several levels
(dating back to Etruscan times), the house now boasts in its new layout and
form a useable surface of 273 sqm. A home office, sauna or gym, apartments to
rent out - the possibilities are infinite. Plans for the renovation of this unique
property have already been made, both internally and externally, with the
necessary permissions granted. Contrary to common usage in the old centre,
there is permission to make extra windows and to increase the size of the
existing windows. In addition, the roof can be raised, allowing for the
creation of extra living space, an internal balcony or roof greenhouse. This will give an unparalleled view: not only
on the castle tower of Ficulle, but also at 180 degrees over the green valley
in which the town is immersed.The
permissions are valid until September 2025. Plans have also been
drawn up for the interior, which can be used or adapted.In addition, most of the preparations necessary for the restoration have already been made: the main
demolition works have been done, the asbestos has been removed and the waste
disposed of. The house might not look its best at the moment, but it means
months of work and thousands of euros saved.So, you can start the work on your dream
home right away! What more can we say, this house is
worth viewing. Layout A large entrance hall gives access to
the house. There is a large pantry on the left, with a sink and connection for
washing machine - dryer, and there is also a room with doors out onto the
street. Down the hall, there is access to the basements, four levels down, all
the way to an old Etruscan cave. Thanks to the cool temperatures it is the best
place to store wine and foodstuffs, but it could also be perfect for a sauna or
gym. As part of a renewable energy production (geothermal energy), like
ventilation with natural cooling, these spaces are ideal for the application of
systems engineering to become more self-sufficient. The traditional stairway gives access to
the upper floors, consisting of three apartments with kitchen, living room, bedroom,
and bathroom.The new layout foreseen in the project
makes the apartments more spacious, interconnecting them. You can rent them all
out separately, live in one yourself, or create one dwelling arranged over 4 or
5 floors.
