About this property
Perched on a green Umbrian hillside outside Marsciano, this 17th-century stone villa is the kind of property that makes you reconsider everything sensible you ever planned. Four floors of vintage character are connected by a turreted spiral staircase, with a cellar kitchen boasting its own entrance, a double-height rustic living room, five proper bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a loft with valley views that will become your most-used bragging right. The crowning glory: a panoramic tower terrace delivering genuine 360-degree views across the Umbrian countryside.
Yes, restoration is firmly on the agenda. Original cotto floors need attention, the electrics want updating, and the ceiling beams could do with some encouragement. But the bones here are genuinely beautiful, and the potential is wildly underrated for the price. Outside, five hectares of olive groves, woodland, and wild countryside surround the property with complete privacy, a direct driveway from the provincial road keeps access straightforward, and there is ample room to add a pool once the renovation mojo kicks in.
Location-wise, you are 30 minutes from Perugia, 40 from Todi, and just over an hour from Orvieto, Assisi, and Montepulciano. Lake Trasimeno is half an hour away. The medieval hamlet of Montelagello is around the corner, and a handful of local villages supply the essentials: decent espresso, a locksmith, and someone who knows their way around a 300-year-old door handle. Central to everything, but far enough to hear actual silence.
