Village house with garage, garden, swimming pool, and stunning views south over the Tiber Valley
Casa delle Coccinelle is an elegant three-bedroom house with garage, garden, swimming pool, and stunning views south over the Tiber Valley. It sits within the ancient castle walls of a pretty hilltop village, situated in the rolling hills between Todi and Perugia.
The house was completely restored in 2017 to a high standard, whereas the shutters on the garden side were replaced in 2024.
On the ground floor there is a garage, a laundry room with a door to the garden and a bathroom with toilet and basin.
From the double front door, a marble staircase leads up to the first floor. At the top, to the left, there is the guest bedroom with its own balcony overlooking the village streets and far-reaching view to Perugia beyond. Adjacent to this is the separate guest bathroom comprising spacious shower, toilet and washbasin. Ahead you enter the spacious lounge featuring a log-burner and two large French windows looking out over the garden, pool and valley. From the lounge a doorway leads into the fitted eat-in kitchen with brick-built fireplace.
On the second floor you find the master suite comprising a stunning luxury open-plan bedroom, bathroom and lounge area with twin French windows overlooking the Tiber Valley.
The third double bedroom, currently used as a study and children’s room, could easily be converted to provide a double bedroom with en-suite. From this room is the above-stairs attic housing the boiler for central heating and hot water and storage space.
All windows of the 3 bedrooms have high-quality built-in insect screens.
The garden is laid with lawn, stepping stones throughout, flower borders and a paved dining area beneath a sturdy chestnut pergola covered in mature wisteria. The custom-designed pool is built entirely of reinforced concrete with terracotta edging. It is 9 m x 4 m with small terrace and steps at one end and has underwater lighting. It is partly raised to provide seating around the edge and take advantage of the beautiful view.
