About this property

Stunning hilltop villa with amazing views, pool, olive grove, vines and woods.

This sympathetically restored hilltop farmhouse has sweeping views of the valley below. Torricella offers the perfect Italian villa experience, with its beautiful farmhouse kitchen, adjoining loggia for eating al fresco, a wonderful drawing room with enormous fireplace, and a stunning pool.
The grounds surrounding the house offer wonderful walks. The pool area overlooking the olive grove and vines is a panacea for the senses. The house has been restored using traditional regional materials and has excellent green credentials with a low carbon footprint. The tasteful furniture and sense of style are apparent everywhere. Restored by a local builder and craftsmen, using reclaimed materials where possible, the house incorporates energy saving systems to minimize the impact on the environment. While remaining true to its Umbrian farmhouse roots, Torricella provides luxurious holiday living, and is equipped with all the modern amenities. Very spacious, with plenty of communal areas, it has four main bedrooms, and two additional rooms with sofa beds. For children there are cots, high chairs and a buggy, as well as an abundance of games for all ages. All four bedrooms have overhead ceiling fans and all windows have insect screens. For children there are indoor and outdoor games. For the adults, think of wine tastings, cooking courses, private chefs at the house and so much more. For those who like to combine relaxation with sightseeing, there are many picturesque towns within easy driving distance. Torricella is situated in the middle of Italy. The major cultural centres of Rome, Florence, Sienna and Pisa are a day-trip away, with beautiful towns such as Perugia, Assisi, Gubbio and Cortona (to name but a few) being an easy half-day visit. We can offer Italian immersion courses at the Villa so that, when one does venture forth, one is confident to mix in with the local people.
The house also has an abundance of books and plenty of secluded areas to sit and read.
There are four main bedrooms (3 doubles and 1 twin/double), a bedroom/study which has a convertible sofa bed and the Hayloft also has three futons which are perfect for young people. There are three bathrooms and a downstairs loo in the boiler room.
As a personal touch for our guests we offer toiletries and a welcome pack.

Perfect for families vacationing together

This property is clearly a home the owners love that they have opened up for others to appreciate - versus the purpose-outfitted rentals that have become too common. Everything is as you would want in your own place, the furniture, the bedding, the outfitting of the kitchen, etc. It is beautifully decorated and landscaped and impeccably maintained. The pictures cannot do it justice - as it is a breathtaking location that you can only really appreciate from the pool or many terraces. You need to have a car with high ground clearance, ideally AWD, to make the 3 kilometers of dirt road off the highway, but it's well worth the trip. There was an error in the listing that indicated the house had air conditioning, but it does not. As a person who's always had CAC, I can attest that - absent a medical condition requiring it - AC is unnecessary as long as you manage the shades and windows. We were there during an unusual heatwave and were comfortable at all times. The location is in a region not visited by crowds - but that's a big part of its charm. Umbria is full of small, charming, market villages, beautiful landscapes, pre-Roman history and fantastic food and wine - it just takes a little bit of research - and the rewards for doing so are many.
