PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Just 8 km from Orvieto and a few minutes from Lake Bolsena, on a gentle hill overlooking the surrounding landscape, stands this stone farmhouse dating back to the early 19th century, a charming retreat where nature, history, and modern comforts blend in perfect harmony.

The approximately 50 m2 annex with its own private entrance is a versatile and charming space: a large living room with a fireplace, kitchen, and bathroom, perfect as a guest house, a creative studio, or a relaxation space.




STATE AND FINISHES
The result of a meticulous restoration, including seismic strengthening, between 2006 and 2012, the farmhouse retains all the charm of an ancient Umbrian home thanks to its exposed stonework and traditional details, while also offering modern and functional comforts. The interiors feature terracotta floors, handcrafted in the early 19th century, which tell the story of the place and evoke local tradition. The finishes are meticulously crafted, and the spaces are airy and bright. All chestnut wood window frames offer solidity and warmth, and the windows are all equipped with grilles and mosquito nets to ensure safety and comfort year-round.
Heating is provided by an LPG-fired radiator system and a wood-burning stove. There is a municipal water supply and a private cistern. Sewerage is provided by a private septic tank.
