SMALL ESTATE WITH COUNTRY HOUSES, VINEYARDS AND WINE CELLAR FOR SALE IN TODI, UMBRIA

The main farmhouse (319 m² – 3,432 ft², 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms) is a stone and brick building laid over two floors. The lower level houses a large open-plan living room with dining area, the kitchen, a small entrance hall and a storage room at the back with an adjoining service bathroom. From the living room one then exits onto a lovely porch with an oven, very suitable for outdoor dining.

An internal or external staircase then leads to the upper floor, which is used entirely as a sleeping area: here we find four bedrooms with en-suite bathroom and two bedrooms with shared bathroom. The possibility of independent access from the outside makes the rooms suitable for an accommodation business.

A short distance from the farmhouse is the caretaker’s house (123 m² – 1,323 ft², 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom), built on two levels. The ground floor is occupied by two large storage rooms/cellar. The first floor, reached by an external staircase, is the dwelling itself, consisting of a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom.

Continuing along the road from the farmhouse, one arrives at the farming podere.

The main building is the wine cellar (195 m² – 2098 ft², 1 bathroom) equipped with a grape processing area, barriques for ageing, storage room and service area for employees. On the upper floor of the building is an apartment (110 m² – 1,184 ft², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) comprising a living room, dining room with kitchenette and large terrace (40 m² – 430 ft²), two bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Not far from the cellar is the old drying barn (63 m² – 678 ft²) no longer in use. The volume of the old stables for the animals (25 m² – 269 ft²), now demolished and no longer visible, can be used to rebuild the building or expand the existing ones.

The last podere, on the other hand, houses a large agricultural shed (570 m² – 6,133 ft²), once used as a drying shed and now ideal as a vehicle and/or tool shed.

On the northern front of the property, next to the vineyards, there is the ruin of an old farmhouse, no longer existing, which could be rebuilt following the original volume.

The farm covers, in its entirety, about 5.0 hectares (12.3 acres) of land spread over the rolling hills of Todi. Around the farmhouses, the land is worked as a garden (about 6,340 m² between the various buildings) with ornamental plants and shade trees.

The heart of the farm is the IGT vineyard (2.3824 ha) composed mainly of white varieties and capable of producing around 15,000 bottles of wine per year, preferring quality over quantity. The vines are, however, planted in land that falls within the two appellations Todi DOC and Colli Perugini DOC, to which one could apply to increase the prestige of the wines (which are already of excellent quality anyway).

• Vineyard surface: 2.3824 hectares
• Varieties: Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Incrocio Manzoni, Syrah
• Altitude: 210 – 250 m slm (south-west)
• Training: pruned-spur cordon (4,500 – 5,000 vines / ha)
• Soil composition: sandy, clayish
• Yearly production: 112,5 hl (~ 15,000 bottles)

The remaining land is occupied by arable land (1.6 ha partially covered by trees) that could be used to plant new vines and increase wine production. Only small portions of the farm are registered as woodland (3,890 m²) and cannot be used for agricultural purposes.
