About this property
An ancient watchtower nestled within the castle walls of Sant'Angelo in Mercole, fully renovated and spread across four characterful levels. The ground floor delivers a practical entrance hall, eat-in kitchen with pellet stove, bathroom and storage. The first floor opens onto a wisteria-draped 13 m² terrace, with a fireplace bedroom that doubles convincingly as a living room. Higher still, a second bedroom with bathroom, and down in the first basement level, a third bedroom with its own private entrance, because a medieval watchtower should always have options.
The 615 m² of exclusive outdoor space wraps the tower in a combination of paved terracing and manicured garden, with parking included. Six kilometres from Spoleto along a country road, close enough for culture and cappuccino, far enough to keep the tour groups at bay. Proper Umbrian countryside surrounds it on all sides, the kind where neighbours wave from a distance rather than knock unannounced.
Energy class G is the honest reality of stone towers and ancient walls, thermal efficiency was never really the brief when this was built. What you are buying is history, character and a postcode inside a castle, at a price that frankly makes very little sense in the best possible way.
