Charming Umbrian country house with garden and pool in panoramic position with views of Todi
This characteristic stone house with a small turret is situated on a south-west facing hillside with magnificent panoramic views of the Tiber Valley and the beautiful Umbrian town of Todi, surrounded by a well-tended fenced garden of approx. 2,800 m² with pool.
The natural stone house was built in 2002 in the traditional Umbrian country style, using traditional materials and incorporating modern technology. The result is a very comfortable house with large and bright rooms.
The living area of the house is divided into a cosy living room with wood-burning stove and a modern, fully equipped kitchen with dining area, both of which have direct access to the covered terrace. A lounge, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a storage room complete this level. In the tower there is another room used as third bedroom with a shower room.
In summer, the living area is extended by the large covered terrace (portico) and various seating areas on the terraces and throughout the garden. From the portico there is also access to a summer kitchen with pizza oven and barbecue. From all areas, you are very close to the garden with its fragrant shrubs, bushes and herbs. The centrepiece of the well-tended garden is a very appealing pool and the olive trees, which can provide enough olive oil for a family's needs.
To complete the property there is a carport for 2 cars, a utility room and a garden shed, that can be used as a studio/workshop or for garden tools.
A photovoltaic system with its own battery impressively supports the electricity requirements and makes the house almost self-sufficient in summer.
