Manor house

In the heart of Umbria, amid the rolling hills of the Tiber Valley, stands this extraordinary historic estate, converted from a 13th-century medieval abbey. Surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and Mediterranean woodland, the estate enjoys a commanding position with unobstructed views of the surrounding countryside and encompasses over 1,000 m² of internal surfaces, two swimming pools, a 5,600-m² private park, and an olive grove.

The abbey’s origins are documented as early as 1275, when it appears in ecclesiastical records pertaining to the payment of the tithe. For centuries, it served as an important administrative center for the territories of Todi and Orvieto, belonging to the noble Clementini family from Amelia until the end of the 18th century, when it became part of the assets of the Episcopal Seminary of Todi.

Thanks to its exceptional architectural value, commanding location, and proximity to major cities such as Todi, Perugia, and Rome, the estate is equally suited as an exclusive private residence or as a refined, charming hospitality property, capable of combining authenticity, privacy, and a landscape of the highest quality.
