Description
Marvellous, finely restored antique residence located in the enchanting setting of Lake Trasimeno.

The recent restoration has enhanced the elegance of the 19th-century building, and the luxurious Italian-style garden and swimming pool invite guests to relax in a serene and natural setting. The large arched windows let in the light and offer a spectacular view of the lake, accompanying every moment with the sound of nature. Here, every corner invites you to experience a slow rhythm of harmony and pleasure. The property is sold complete with the exquisite furnishings, specially designed for the historic building.
An Art Nouveau-style villa in a dominant position on the gentle hills north of Lake Trasimeno. A magical location, where the view opens onto breathtaking sunsets that paint the landscape with ever-new hues every evening. We are located in an extraordinarily private setting, immersed in the quiet and privacy typical of this area, yet within easy reach of all amenities: just 10 minutes from the main services, a short walk from a renowned and excellent restaurant, where you can also enjoy a simple coffee, and just over the ridge from the famous Castle of Reschio, one of the most sought-after and suggestive destinations in the Umbrian countryside. The Villa has been renovated according to a modern concept of refined design that blends in with the historicity of the property, a unique jewel of the area and one of the very few ancient ones in the area. Open space and large windows overlooking the lake make this house an ideal place for lovers of a true luxury lifestyle. The property is developed around a private courtyard of about 7500 square meters, accessible through a characteristic gate; a cobblestone driveway leads to a wonderful and valuable Italian garden, with a centuries-old olive tree in the centre. Adjacent to it stands the historic villa, a mansion dating back to the 1800s that has been completely restored with taste and respect for architectural authenticity, retaining the original wooden beams on the ceilings and the pietra serena stairs, expertly restored to their original splendour. The manor house is on three levels, each with generous square footage (250 sqm ground floor, 180 sqm second floor and 180 sqm second floor/attic). The structure is mainly facing south/east for unparalleled natural light. On the ground floor we find a large kitchen, two sumptuous living rooms, one of them with three large windows overlooking the lake and a fine light travertine floor, an elegant bathroom, a large room to be used as storage or cellar – with direct access also from outside – and finally a large technical room, connected to the latter room. On the first floor is the sleeping area, consisting of two bedrooms, with ensuite bathrooms, and an additional master bedroom, with an internal study and master bathroom. From the hallway that separates the bedroom from the bathroom, there is access to the 50 sqm terrace with walnut travertine flooring, facing south over the Lake and the pool; the entire “master” area, with bedroom, study and bathroom with tub. The house is equipped with air conditioning with recessed splits, so as not to spoil the harmony of the layout and interior finishes. Completing the property is a detached outbuilding of about 25 square meters, which will be sold completely renovated and furnished as a pool house, and a beautiful swimming pool with enchanting views of the lake and the surrounding countryside, which will be completed soon and will be lined with dark blue backdrop, always following the concept of modern luxury. The property also has a secondary access, with an additional gate above the main entrance gate, leading to a parking space with numerous parking spaces. This is an exclusive proposal, ideal for those seeking a charming residence in one of the most sought-after areas of central Italy, where beauty, history, nature and elegance come together in timeless harmony. Possibility to include in the purchase a land of about 20 hectares above the property.

For most of the rooms and the terrace, the flooring is travertine, giving the house the right touch of light and class it deserves. The property is sold complete with the very fine furnishings, specially designed for the historic building.

A well is present, useful for irrigating the outdoor areas. All systems comply with current regulations.
Use and Potential Uses
