Description

Located within delightful mature grounds set in a managed estate and accessed via a tree-lined driveway, this lovely property (located at one end of a block of three) has the use of a 15 x 5m chlorine swimming pool (1.2 metres deep with Roman steps) and an all-weather tennis court. With a private and well maintained two-level garden, it offers peace and relaxation in a tranquil yet convenient location with all amenities nearby.

Originally a group of farm buildings, the nine properties on the site were all renovated in 2008.

Il Vinaio is on two floors and the whole of the ground floor is open-plan with a wonderful high, barrel vaulted ceiling. Two French doors lead onto a patio area and there is an additional full-length window facing in the same direction towards a very pretty view. A second section of the garden sits on a lower level and has a pergola under which to sit and enjoy the peace and quiet. A fully fitted kitchen occupies one corner of the ground floor space and there is a wood-burning stove in the sitting area in the opposite corner.

Three equally sized bedrooms (two of which are corner bedrooms) occupy the first floor which is accessed via an internal staircase with stone treads. The master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with a balcony and there is a second family bathroom as well as a compact office space/dressing room. There are two large custom-made storage cupboards for linen etc.

The property, gardens and ground maintenance are all overseen by a gentleman who lives close by. The condominium fee is payable quarterly and comes to approximately €2,000 pa.

Pierantonio, the nearest village, is a 5km drive whilst the nearest market town, Umbertide, is 10km. Umbertide has everything you need for everyday life including a hospital and lots of shops and restaurants as well as a train station and access onto the E45.

The surrounding countryside is composed of magnificent wooded hills dotted with castles and dominated by Monte Acuto. It is 30 km North of Perugia and 20 km South of Città di Castello.
