DRONE:
A magnificent castle and village of about 3,084 sqm, with 8.5 hectares of land and breathtaking views of the surrounding valley and Perugia.
Description
The castle dates back to 593 AD and was built on the borders of the Byzantine Corridor. Around the year 1000 it became a monastery and in 1474 was given to a family of counts who used it as a summer residence.
The mansion consists of 27 units – 11 apartments and 16 suites, all finely restored with chestnut wood beams and old terracotta floors. The restoration was carried out with the help of the Ministry of Culture, which considers it a model restoration because of the thoroughness of the work and the quality of the materials used.
23 units are of considerable public interest with large tax benefits.
The units range from 59 to 186 sqm. and have 1 – 3 bedrooms, 96% of which have their own bathrooms. Many living rooms have a fireplace.
In the Small Tower there is a 186 sqm. unit with a large living room, 2 double bedrooms and two bathrooms.
On the second floor there is a 170 sqm unit with a large living room, fireplace, and 7 beds.
The view is magnificent from all windows and outside areas.
The hill is on the maps at the entrance to the Vatican Museums because a saint took refuge there in 174 A.D. and because in 1450 Pope Nicholas V (1474-55) who founded the Vatican Library, lived there for months.
In the chapel of St. Paul, first mentioned in a papal bull of 1115, there is a beautiful canopy for papal visits with his coat of arms. There are also delicate frescoes from 1315-19 painted by Meo da Siena, who was a pupil of Giotto and has an entire room dedicated to him in the Städel Museum in Frankfurt and the National Gallery in Perugia.
There is a spa with a sauna, steam bath, sensory shower and heated whirlpool, a restaurant room with a cross-vaulted ceiling and a 129 sqm iron pergola with stunning views of Perugia, opening windows and a kitchen.
