Casale Santa Cristina: the rustic charm of the most authentic Umbria
Published 16-12-2025
Among the soft hills of Umbria, where vineyards follow the curves of the land and medieval villages dot the horizon, stands a property that embodies the most authentic and refined face of this region: Casale Santa Cristina. A dwelling that combines the solidity of Umbrian rural tradition with contemporary comfort, in a harmonious balance that enhances its charm, atmosphere and livability.
The location is among the most sought after: a short distance from Umbertide and Perugia, in a quiet area but close to services, surrounded by a landscape that changes color with the seasons. From the windows and terraces, the gaze embraces the vineyards that draw the hill, while the silence of the countryside composes a perfect background for those seeking privacy and quality of life.
A farmhouse that tells the story of Umbria
The heart of the property is a stone farmhouse of about 300 m², part of a total internal area that reaches 400 m² thanks to the outbuildings and the dependence. The restoration, conducted with great care, has enhanced every architectural detail: the ancient masonry, handmade terracotta tiles and wooden beams immediately recall the Umbrian tradition, while the organization of the spaces reflects the contemporary idea of comfort and brightness.
The farmhouse is equipped with underfloor heating, air conditioning system, stable Internet connection and an energy system integrated by solar panels. The energy certification reports a requirement of 243.71 kWh/m² per year, a value in line with the characteristics of a perfectly restored historic building.
The ground floor welcomes guests with a spacious and convivial living room, a dining room with an open kitchen and pantry, a cozy TV room/office and a convenient laundry room. There is no shortage of an elegant and functional service bathroom.
Upstairs is the sleeping area: three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, designed to provide privacy and comfort for each guest. One of the rooms also has a private terrace, a small vantage point from which to watch the landscape at sunrise or sunset.
An assessment by a Feng Shui master confirmed the distributional harmony of the spaces, emphasizing the energetic balance with which the house was designed.
An annex designed to accommodate in style
Next to the main villa is a lovely 55 m² annex, built on a single level and perfect for hosting guests or for use as a small private retreat. It consists of a living room with kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom: a self-contained, functional and well-kept space that maintains the authentic style of the main property.
In addition to the sleeping area of the farmhouse, this annex brings the total number of bedrooms to 4 and bathrooms to 5, making the property also perfect for hosting families, friends or small groups in total privacy.
A swimming pool amid nature and silence
The 15-meter-long pool is located in one of the most scenic areas of the garden. The stone solarium, equipped with seating and umbrellas, creates a relaxing area immersed in tranquility. A 45-m² basement technical room houses the pool's systems, ensuring efficiency and quietness.
The pool becomes the heart of summer life: a space for swimming, reading in the shade, organizing intimate dinners at sunset or simply contemplating the beauty of the Umbrian landscape.
The garden: a green microcosm cared for with dedication
Among the strengths of Casale Santa Cristina is undoubtedly the garden: almost a hectare – 9,753 m² –maintained with daily attention, a constant work that can be felt in the quality of the greenery. The lawn is made lush at all times by a fully automated irrigation system, fed by water from a lake located downstream from the property.
The garden is embellished by more than one hundred cypress trees, an iconic symbol of central Italy, which punctuate the landscape with geometric elegance.
The olive grove, which covers 0.48 hectares and consists of about 100 trees, allows an annual production of 160 kg of extra virgin olive oil, a quantity that tells of the authentic link between this land and its agricultural tradition.
A corner of Umbria that combines authenticity and quality
Casale Santa Cristina is more than a luxury residence: it is a way of experiencing Umbria.
Here, luxury takes on a discreet meaning, made of ancient materials, views that change with the light, and spaces that convey calm. The presence of modern technologies – such as solar panels and underfloor heating is integrated without disturbing the rural aesthetic, making the property functional and sustainable.
The combination of impeccable restoration, strategic location, cozy outbuilding, and a lovingly tended garden makes this property one of the best examples of slow and authentic living in central Italy.
Casale Santa Cristina is a home that encapsulates the essence of Umbria: harmonious landscapes, deep silences, architecture that tells the story, and an idea of well-being linked to the rhythms of nature. A place where you can find balance, welcome friends and family, cultivate new passions, or simply devote your time.
