Casa Nuova - Città del Castello - Umbria

Price:

Casa Nuova is an attractive stone farm house that Summer’s Leases has rented in the past and which the owner now wishes to sell. It comes with plenty of land, the majority of which is pasture, perfect for horses. The 5 hectares of oak woods provide plenty of firewood for the stove in the kitchen - and truffles, that exquisite luxury greatly sought after by gastronomes the world over!

The interior of the property is full of character: polished oak or terracotta floors, gnarled ceiling beams and occasional exposed stone walls. It has a wonderful atmosphere of solidity and times past. The lower floor of the main house is entirely given over to living rooms and the country kitchen, where everyone tends to congregate.

Upstairs is an office (the seller is a choreographer) with its own terrace and a lobby with superb fireplace leading to the three bedrooms. A hundred years ago, this lobby would have been the farmers’ kitchen. If an additional bedroom were required on this floor, a new staircase could be formed down from this lobby and the office converted into a 4th bedroom for the main house.

The studio is close to the main house, with spacious sitting room, double bedroom and small bathroom with shower. The studio is fully air conditioned. Total floor space for both houses is 430 square metres (net 270 m²).

Casa Nuova is located just 8 km outside Città di Castello, the main town of northern Umbria and 90 km from Fano on the Adriatic coast. Within easy reach are Arezzo, Cortona, Sansepolcro, Anghiari, Perugia, Gubbio and Assisi. It’s splendidly positioned on a high plain with gently undulating land and magnificent views. An area of 3 acres around the house has been fenced to form a park and the pool is just beyond, cleverly hidden from the house.

A superb property for year-round living or as an investment for rental.
