LUXURY RESTORED PROPERTY WITH WELLNESS CENTER FOR SALE IN TODI, UMBRIA

The main villa (315 m² – 3,389 ft², 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms) is laid over three floors. Entering the ground floor, one finds a small entrance hall that leads to the kitchen (in front), the dining room (on the left) and the large living room (on the right). The kitchen has a small pantry and exit to the porch. The living room then leads to the first bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Opposite the dining room, the staircase leads to the upper floor: here are a second living room and three bedrooms with en-suite bathroom. Continuing along the staircase, one finally reaches the turret where a relaxation area with sauna, bathroom and emotional shower has been created. 

The building is equipped with modern, state-of-the-art appliances of the highest quality, including air conditioning and underfloor heating for improved energy efficiency. In terms of security, there are both an automatic gate and an alarm system. Water is supplied by the municipal aqueduct and filtered by a water softener, while the private well allows for easy irrigation of the garden. The original finishes have been preserved and/or restored where necessary and the building is characterized by wooden beams, terracotta floors, brick arches and fireplaces that recalls the rustic origin of the building.

The guesthouse (172 m² – 1,851 ft², 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms) was built ex novo between 2017 and 2019 following a precise project that, by using local stone and ingenious solutions, harmonized the building with the main villa and the surrounding environments. On the ground floor, the entrance door opens onto a large living room with a fireplace and dining area. All around are then the kitchen, the guest bathroom and three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. On the upper floor, accessible either by an internal staircase or directly from outside, is a fourth bedroom with en-suite bathroom and private terrace. From outside, a secondary door leads to a storage room and technical room.

The real gem of the property is the wellness center (150 m² – 1,614 ft², 1 bathroom), also built between 2017 and 2019 and located right next to the guesthouse. Upon entering, one finds a beautiful living room with gym and kitchenette. Continuing through to the semicircular section of the building one reaches the actual spa with sauna, hammam, whirlpool tub, bathroom and changing room. The view from the building opens up to the surrounding hills and offers a unique panorama. In the basement of the building is a large storage room for equipment.

Not far from the villa is the technical room (6 m² – 65 ft²) for the systems, designed to perfectly integrate with the building without disturbing the view. Between the villa and the guesthouse, a spacious shed (42 m² – 452 ft²) with storage space (10 m² – 108 ft²) that is currently used as a carport and equipment storage. Not far from the road, in a defiladed position with regards to the villa and the guesthouse, is a warehouse (45 m² – 484 ft²) that is currently used as a woodshed, but was originally intended as a stable for horses.

In the nearby medieval hamlet, the property also has a restored townhouse (115 m² – 1,237 ft², 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) on two floors. Upon entering the ground floor is a large living area that spans the entire level, equipped with a kitchenette and guest bathroom. Going up the staircase one reaches the sleeping area consisting of four bedrooms and a bathroom.

In front of the building is an agricultural warehouse (30 m² – 323 ft²) divided into three rooms with independent access from the outside.

The estate covers about 6.7 hectares (16.5 acres), entirely fenced and surrounded by trees that guarantee excellent privacy. The well-manicured garden is a colorful composition of flower beds, lavender hedges, cypress trees, olive trees and lawns. The 12 × 4.5 m swimming pool is set a perfect distance from the main villa, protected on one side by a stone wall and open to the valley below. There are also plans for a private pond that could be used to collect rainwater and thus irrigate the grounds.

Below the wellness center are also a tennis/volleyball court and a bocce court. Right next to the tennis court a beautiful terrace is the perfect spot for al fresco dining, while a second dining area is located just off the kitchen and is equipped with a barbecue and table for twelve.

Just below the villa, in a secluded position and not visible from the buildings, there is also a convenient parking area, from which one can then ascend towards the buildings via a walkway with stairs paved in local stone.

Along the private access driveway (closed by an automated gate) are roughly 150 olive trees that are used to produce a small quantity of oil for private use.

From a maintenance standpoint, the property relies on two gardeners who take care of the exteriors. The current job consists of two working days per week for eight months a year, one working day a week for the remaining four months.

The property, thanks to its beautiful finishes and unique position in one of the most beautiful and characteristic areas of Umbria, is currently managed as a short-term accommodation business with excellent results, renting the entire structure to groups of interested vacationers and tourists. Nevertheless, as the houses are very intelligently arranged within the property, one could also decide to rent only some of the buildings (e.g. the guesthouse) while keeping the main villa for oneself and granting guests the use of the swimming pool and wellness center. The possibilities are manifold and the property is easily adapted to the needs of the new owners.
