Description
Umbrian villa with views - Casa Vinci sits high on a hill with breathtaking views in all directions. Gentle hills and farmland flank one side of the property whilst a rugged mountain topped by a castle from the 12th century flanks the other. Located just a short distance from Umbertide, this property is ideally situated to explore the delights of both Tuscany and Umbria. There are fascinating historical towns like Perugia just a short distance away, whilst Orvieto and Deruta (renowned for its pottery) are a short drive. The property itself was built in the early 18th century and has been recently restored, whilst retaining original features. The main house comprises some 3,300 square feet whilst the cottage in the garden is some 500 square feet in size. It is in a natural Tuscan/Umbrian style with wood beamed ceilings and terracotta tiled floors. Furnishings include attractive antiques and oriental rugs. Bedrooms are comfortably appointed; the master bedroom benefits from air conditioning. Local attractions include Lake Trasimeno (that has its own ' beaches' and shallow bathing waters) with activities for children and including water sports like sailing and wind surfing for adults. Other attractions within a short distance of the villa include an Alpaca Farm, a water park at Citta di Castello, a zoo and other wildlife parks and of course the famous chocolate factory at Perugia (a wonderful place for a guided tour!) There is a golf course within 2 kms of this Umbrian villa with views.
