3 bedrooms historic apartment, 175 m²

Orvieto, Terni (province)

Domus Estia is a distinguished residence located on the mezzanine floor of a 17th-century palace, featuring a magnificent 17th-century fountain in the entrance hall adorned with the effigies of a rooster and a lion. The palace historically served as the seat of the Knights of Malta, later of the Knights of St. John, and eventually became the residence of the renowned architect Zampi, who oversaw the restoration of the Palazzo del Capitano del Popolo, one of the city’s most admired and beautiful monuments. Adjacent to the fountain is a convenient and accessible storage room included in the property.

Ascending a few steps, one reaches the entrance door that, via a local stone staircase, leads to two separate apartments. Midway along the staircase, there is a bathroom with a shower and, adjacent to it, a laundry area. The property boasts a total commercial area of approximately 172 sqm. The two apartments, currently independent but capable of being merged if desired, have respective net usable areas of about 45 sqm for the smaller unit and approximately 55 sqm for the larger one.

The smaller apartment is arranged on a single level and comprises a spacious living room with a modern, high-end functional kitchen, a large master bedroom, and an en suite bathroom also accessible from the living area.

The larger apartment, situated on the same level, features a generous open-plan living space with a relaxation area and a modern, fully-equipped kitchen, two bedrooms (one master and one double), and a beautifully finished bathroom with a large shower, curated with premium materials.
The property was completely and meticulously renovated in 2019 using high-quality materials and finishes. The floors are made of hexagonal terracotta tiles, the kitchens are of excellent quality, as are the bathroom fixtures and the many carefully placed details. The window frames are chestnut wood with double glazing and mosquito screens, and the entrance door is armored. Both apartments feature underfloor heating and air conditioning.
All main utilities are connected and operational. Municipal water supply, methane gas, and internet are connected and fully functional.
The property is suitable for multiple uses. It can serve as a primary residence, with the option to combine the other unit, or it can be an attractive investment for the holiday rental market. Alternatively, it offers the possibility to live in it while simultaneously generating rental income.
Domus Estia is located in the historic center of Orvieto, close to one of the city’s main squares and adjacent to the principal street. The A1 motorway tollbooth is approximately 5 km from the historic center, as is the railway station, accessible via funicular. The city offers abundant services and cultural activities throughout the year. Thanks to its proximity to Rome (about 1 hour) and Florence (about 2 hours), Orvieto is an ideal place to live and a perfect starting point to explore the stunning surrounding territory.
