Description

Imagine basking in the sunshine by the pool, looking up to find a castle on your left, another on your right, and a sweeping lake view straight ahead. This fairy-tale panorama frames “Casale Lago e Castelli,” a prestigious property perfect for those who seek the tranquillity and natural beauty of northern Umbria, where rolling green hills are dotted with ancient villages and historic fortresses.

A significant restoration has returned this 346-square-metre farmhouse to its original splendour, preserving the stone walls and details, terracotta floors, wooden beams, and Venetian plaster finishes. A modern touch is introduced by the spacious living areas and an open-plan kitchen with a marble island. Completing the property are an annex and a large traditional stone oven.

“Casale Lago e Castelli” (Lake and Castles Countrythouse) occupies a truly privileged position, boasting over 18,000 square metres of land that encircle the property. This includes a private park adjacent to the main house, secluded panoramic viewpoints from which to admire the lake and its castles, and a woodland where one can wander in search of mushrooms and truffles. Peace and privacy reign supreme.

What immediately captures your attention is the breathtaking panorama—something truly unique and reminiscent of a fairy-tale. Gaze upon unspoilt landscapes, a tranquil lake, and the castles perched above it. You will feel as though you have stepped back in time, yet all essential services are just a ten-minute drive away in a charming medieval village.

The 346-square-metre farmhouse is arranged over two floors. A recent restoration has preserved its traditional character whilst bestowing a warm, contemporary feel. Especially enchanting are the exposed stone walls and internal arches, lending depth and a sense of spaciousness to the large open-plan living area and kitchen, which occupy almost the entire ground floor. Here, you will also find a generous entrance hall, a bedroom, and a guest bathroom.

Upstairs, you are greeted by lofty ceilings and an additional lounge, which can also be accessed externally via a stone staircase. Alongside this impressive living space, there are four bedrooms—three of which feature splendid en-suite bathrooms. The master bedroom overlooks the beautiful lake and, in addition to a sizeable en-suite, boasts a spacious walk-in wardrobe.

Outdoors, a stone oven faces the level garden, an ideal setting for hosting dinners and gatherings in complete privacy. The swimming pool, bordered by a lawn and ample terracing, provides plenty of space for sun loungers, umbrellas, and deckchairs. Completing the property is a 71-square-metre stone outbuilding currently registered as storage, requiring some maintenance works.
