This historic nine-bedroom home is set across three interconnected buildings. On the first floor of the main house is an entrance hall, breakfast room, bathroom, living room with fireplace, and kitchen with storage areas. The second floor contains five bedrooms, including one large room currently divided into two, with shared and private bathrooms. The guest wing, adjacent to a 1000-year-old church, houses three south-facing bedrooms with en-suite facilities, while four additional rooms with bathrooms are located on the side of the complex.
The property contains many traditional features including stone and brick walls, wooden beams, and terracotta and wooden floors. A central paved courtyard, accessible from the kitchen, provides an outdoor dining space. The grounds include terraces, a small pool, gardens, and woodland areas.
The property is in Pietralunga, a medieval village nestled in the northern reaches of Umbria. The region’s rolling hills covered in oak and chestnut forests have earned it the nickname “The Green Heart of Italy.” The town’s history dates to Roman times, with its impressive 8th-century Lombard fortress still dominating the skyline. The area is renowned for its exceptional hiking and mountain biking trails, including parts of the ancient Via Flaminia Roman Road.
Pietralunga is famous for its white truffle festival (the most expensive truffle in the world) in November and the unique ‘Pieve de’ Saddi’ church, one of Umbria’s oldest Christian sites.
I haven’t visited this property or done due diligence on it. If you’re interested in the listing, you should hire an attorney and do your own due diligence.
