RESTORED COUNTRY HOUSE FOR SALE IN UMBRIA, JUST ONE HOUR FROM ROME

This medieval castle is right on the border between Umbria and Lazio, not far from a typical medieval town. The property (over 2,300 m² in total) is made up of the keep (6 guest bedrooms) with wellness center, a restaurant, three villas (14 bedrooms, currently used by the owners), the animal stable (350 m²) and a huge warehouse (1,200 m²) for the tools. All around, the farm covers roughly 20.1 hectares of land and features a small olive grove (50 trees). The property is located right along the so-called Cammino della Luce (literally, the Way of Light), a suggestive path similar to the one of Santiago, connecting Rome and Aquileia.

Services are all available in the nearby town (4km; 5’) and the property can be reached via a short stretch of well-maintained unpaved road (roughly 800 m). The property is set in a strategic location and there are several road junctions available nearby. The A1 highway is, as a matter of fact, just 8 km from the property and from here one can take several different roads such as SS79 connecting Rieti and Terni, the E45 that leaves Italy tot eh north connecting Sicily and Finland at its extremities, and SS675 that (once completed) will lead directly to the Tyrrhenic highway.

Also, the Orte train station is one of the most important junctions of Central Italy. From here, one can reach Rome in just 30 minutes, while Florence is no more than an hour and a half away. Also worth mentioning is the “shuttle” service to the Fiumicino airport.

Among the tourist destination worth visiting the most interesting are the shrines in Assisi and Cascia, the Marmore waterfall and the Nera Valley, the Etruscan sites of Tuscia (Tuscania, Tarquinia, Sutri…) and the beautiful medieval towns of Umbria and Lazio (Todi, Spoleto, Civita di Bagnoregio, Amelia, Orvieto…).
