Picturesque
and historic castle that is part of an enchanting medieval hamlet
located in a dominating,
panoramic
position just 7 km from Todi. This area, famous for its historic
and cultural context, is characterized by the unspoilt beauty of
gentle rolling
hills, sweeping valleys, jagged cliffs all dotted by farms and farmhouses,
medieval fortresses and hamlets, and pastures, woods, olives groves, and
vineyards.
Originally
built as a garrison
in the 13th c. on the ruins of a Roman fortress, the castle was modified
over the centuries and its history is documented in the archives
of the Comune of Todi.
The
castle has been carefully renovated and restored in full respect of the
hamlet, the regional traditions, and the unique architectural features
of the building which is also embellished by a harmonious exterior brick
arched loggia. There is a total of ca. 850 sqmt now divided
into ten apartments,
including a main entrance hall, lounging rooms,
a large
dining room with fireplace, service areas including laundry room, 4
bathrooms, cantina and small outside garden. The entrance
with the original
brick barrel vaulting opens to a lobby
where an easy flowing
staircase leads to the upper floors. The apartments are of one,
two and three rooms
each with fully-equipped kitchenette and 1 bathroom. Many of them
have private terraces with striking views of the surrounding territory.
All utilities including heating, telephone and internet, TV.
There
is an additional ca. 180 sqmt of space yet to be restored and
5,000 sqmt of park near the castle with centuries-old trees, footpaths
and private parking.
Excellent
investment opportunity for the rarity of the building and the site
in the territory of Todi. Already functioning as a tourist residence
with sleeping accomodation for up to 30 guests. Turn-key.
