Description
A short distance from Todi, in an enchanting setting, this marvelous housing complex of about 850 square meters combines the sacred and the profane.
Description:
The main entrance, connected to the ancient Benedictine church that houses an original fresco dedicated to the most important saint until then known in Umbria, and today transformed into an art gallery, immediately warms the room with a majestic stone fireplace, a staircase leading to the rooms on the upper floor and a direct archway to the large reception hall. The abbey was built in the 13th century, skillfully renovated in various stages until 2014, and is on three levels with entrances on each floor, including in the beautiful stone courtyard that rises within. There are 3 large living areas with fireplaces, one used as a dining room next to the kitchen with saloon doors, the other two are on the second floor. There are also 8 luxuriously furnished rooms, each with a dedicated boiler and bathroom, a full house in the basement currently inhabited by the owner, and an outbuilding of about 200 square meters and with independent heating that is located just above, among the about 350 olive trees and the swimming pool.
Outdoor Spaces:
In addition to the lovely lush garden and the 12-meter swimming pool we find a tennis court and a second outdoor stone pool with statues, on opposite sides of the abbey, a large terrace on the second floor and a veranda on the ground floor, the inner courtyard closed by a wrought-iron gate and which can serve as a secondary entrance, a tool shed and a boiler room.
Condition and Finishes:
The renovations carried out over the years are of absolute value, in addition, the windows and doors have been replaced with double glazing to improve insulation. The pool and part of the garden require minimal renovations, the municipal aqueduct and cistern ensure water supply and the heating is LPG.
Potential uses.
This is the dream home for anyone who wants to live within a wonderful historical context without sacrificing modern conveniences, but it is also suitable as an investment for those who would like to build a prestigious accommodation facility.
