ELEGANT HISTORIC PROPERTY WITH TERRACES AND GARDEN FOR SALE IN UMBERTIDE
Umbria - Perugia - Umbertide
Interiors: 773 sqm

Bathrooms: 10
Exteriors: 1,001 sqm
In the heart of the historic center of Umbertide, a few steps from the Tiber River course, this charming independent historic palazzo from sky to ground represents a rare find in terms of size, location, and historical-architectural value.
The property develops over five levels for a total area of 773 m², plus a large private garden of about 1,000 m² that extends to directly touch the banks of the Tiber, offering a context of absolute suggestion and uniqueness.
On the basement floor, there are very charming rooms with vaulted ceilings, in direct connection with the garden. At this level, the original foundation of the tower belonging to the historic Porta della Campana is still visible, testimony of the 14th-century defensive system of the village.
The building has benefited from important structural interventions, including the complete rebuilding of the roof and the restoration of the façade. The structure is in good preservation condition, while the interiors require renovation, thus offering great possibilities for customization based on the final use. A project for subdivision into multiple housing units is already available, making the property particularly interesting also as an investment.
Architecturally and decoratively, the palace retains high-value elements, including frescoed rooms, original terracotta and antique graniglia flooring, a scenographic central staircase protruding in serena stone with elegant Art-Nouveau wrought iron railings, as well as original fixtures and doors.
Additional external spaces of high value complete the property: two terraces on the second and third floors overlooking the garden and the riverwalk, as well as a panoramic top-level terrace with suggestive views of the village and the surrounding hills. The recently redeveloped attic hosts three rooms also overlooking a landscape context of considerable charm.
This is a prestigious solution, ideal both as a private residence of high standing and as an operation for real estate enhancement in one of the most authentic contexts of Umbria, just a few steps from the central square of Umbertide.

STUNNING PRIVATE ISLAND FOR RENT WITH ARCHAEOLOGICAL PARK AMALFI COAST
Campania - Naples - Massa Lubrense

Bedrooms: 8
Bathrooms: 12
Exteriors: 2.56 ha
Pool: Yes
Lying on the crystal-clear waters of the Amalfi Coast, Isola Isca represents one of the most exclusive and unrepeatable properties in the Mediterranean: a private retreat where unspoiled nature, millennia-old history and architecture dialogue in perfect harmony.
In this setting of absolute privacy, the splendid main villa, finely restored respecting local traditions, dominates the northeastern side of the island, offering brightly lit rooms and spectacular views of the open sea, where every sunrise offers a spectacle of rare beauty.
The residence, embellished with polychrome ceramic floors and large panoramic windows, is on two levels connected by terraces that slope gently toward the water, creating a natural continuity between indoor and outdoor spaces. Next to the villa, a refined guesthouse and a series of service outbuildings – including a panoramic swimming pool with solarium area, bar and staff areas – make up a harmonious complex immersed in the Mediterranean bush, designed to welcome guests in a context of absolute comfort and privacy.
More than just a property, Isca is a microcosm of extraordinary scenic and cultural value, located within the Marine Protected Area of Punta Campanella and characterized by pristine seabed, limestone cliffs and lush Posidonia meadows. During the 20th century, the island was chosen as a buen retiro by the famous playwright Eduardo De Filippo, who made it a place of inspiration and contemplation, transforming it into an authentic creative sanctum sanctorum suspended between sky and sea. Today, this place retains its charm intact, offering a unique living experience, where time seems to flow according to forgotten rhythms.

1800-HA ESTATE WITH MEDIEVAL ABBEY AND 50 FARMHOUSES FOR SALE IN UMBRIA
Umbria - Perugia - Perugia
Interiors: 34,552 sqm
Bedrooms: 150
Bathrooms: 150
Exteriors: 1,807.21 ha
Vineyards: 10.22 ha
Olive grove: 51.65 ha
In the hills of Umbria, not far from Perugia and in an area of rare beauty, impressive estate with medieval abbey for sale. The numerous buildings on the estate largely need restoration work, but the property boasts incredible development potential with the possibility of creating a high-level accommodation business (over 150 potential bedrooms) combined with the agricultural activity already in place.
The heart of the property is the beautiful 10th-century Benedictine abbey (over 6,500 m²). The building rose on the remains of a pre-existing Roman temple and reached its peak around the 12th century. Over the years, various bequests and donations meant that the abbey came to exert its influence over more than thirty towns and twenty castles in the Perugia area. The cloister and church visible today were built in the 13th century, and during the same period the same buildings were embellished with fine art and furnishings. Crisis began to set in at the end of the 14th century, and the abbey slowly became depopulated, until in 1602 it became the focal point of a large farm.
A group of Cistercian monks came to the abbey in 1749 and remained there continuously until the Unification of Italy, when the property was expropriated and sold.
The interior of the abbey still features original elements of rare beauty: the chapter house houses beautiful religious-themed frescoes from the late 13th century, while the church (dating back to the 14th century) still has the original altars decorated with frescoes by Bartolomeo Caporali and Fiorenzo di Lorenzo. In the basement, however, is the crypt, which is, to date, the oldest part of the abbey.
In the grounds of the abbey there are also 50 rustic buildings including farmhouses and agricultural outbuildings (over 27,000 m²): some of these (around twenty) have been renovated over the years and are in excellent condition, while the remaining ones are in need of restoration, consolidation and renovation. At the same time, the Master Plan of the Municipality of Perugia would allow the construction of new volumes within some areas of the property (roughly equal to those already existing) intended for tourist and accommodation activities.

The renovation of the various buildings (over 4,500 m² in total) would pave the way for the creation of a luxury boutique hotel in a very renowned area of Tuscany, less than an hour from Florence and Siena: the convenient location and beautiful spaces (both indoor and outdoor) would also allow the property to be exploited not only for seasonal rentals but also as a location for events, ceremonies, conferences and corporate conventions.
Basic services are available in the nearby medieval village (1km; 2’) while for everything else you just need to reach Siena, less than half an hour's drive away. Tuscany’s best-known art cities (Monteriggioni, San Gimignano, Pienza, Montepulciano...) can all be reached in just an hour by car.

Exteriors: 11.34 ha
Vineyards: 8.14 ha
Olive grove: 1.51 ha
Set at the foot of the majestic Mount Etna, in one of the most evocative landscapes of Sicily, this 11.3-ha country estate captures the authentic soul of the island while potentially offering an elegant and comfortable lifestyle. Surrounded by rolling vineyards and open countryside, the property enjoys a privileged position with sweeping views that stretch across the fertile slopes of the volcano and, in the distance, toward the shimmering waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
The heart of the estate is a beautiful historic country home where traditional Sicilian character meets tasteful contemporary elements. Carefully preserved architectural elements, mostly dating back to the Hispanic domination of Sicily, evoke the charm of the past, while modern comforts ensure a living experience defined by both sophistication and tranquility. The atmosphere is one of timeless elegance, where every space has been thoughtfully designed to enhance the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Some parts of the property require extensive restoration work, particularly in the areas that were once used as cellars: these feature beautiful rustic rooms with very high ceilings and traditional elements (including a perfectly preserved palmento) and could easily be brought back to a usable condition. The large basement space below has been renovated and converted into a beautiful event space, which can also be used as a wine cellar as needed.
Complementing the main residence is a charming bed & breakfast (7 apartments for a total of 18 beds), perfectly integrated into the estate. This welcoming accommodation provides an ideal opportunity to host guests seeking the authentic experience of Etna’s countryside, while at the same time creating a natural source of supplementary income.

Extending around the residence are approximately 8.1 hectares of prestigious Etna DOC vineyards (Alicante and Syrah), a remarkable feature that places the estate within one of Italy’s most celebrated wine territories. The vineyard not only enhances the visual appeal of the property but also represents a valuable agricultural asset, offering the possibility of producing wines that reflect the distinctive volcanic terroir of the Etna region. The remaining surface of the estate (roughly 4,0 ha) is cultivated with cherries and olive grove (Nocellara dell’Etna and San Benedettese cultivars).
An approved project for the construction of a swimming pool further enriches the estate, promising the creation of a secluded outdoor retreat immersed in greenery. Once completed, this space will ensure the perfect setting for relaxation, where one can enjoy the Sicilian sun while overlooking the surrounding vineyards and countryside.
Thanks to its unique setting, its historic charm and the presence of a productive vineyard together with accommodation facilities, this property represents not only a remarkable private residence but also an outstanding lifestyle investment. Here, at the foot of Mount Etna, one can fully embrace the beauty, culture, and traditions that make Sicily one of the most captivating destinations in the Mediterranean.
