Description
Ancient towers built in medieval times, between the 10th and 11th centuries, and used to control the valley crossed by the Tiber river, disputed between the cities of Todi and Orvieto. These two structures then passed into the hands of the religious order of the Camaldolese in the 17th century, until Napoleon expropriated them in the 19th century in 1800 and then became the property of the Cathedral. Expertly restored, one in 2009 and the other in 2013 with the help of the Superintendency of Cultural Heritage, they now house two fascinating homes, immersed in a timeless landscape.
In the largest tower, of approx. 243 m2, spread over four levels, all connected by the lift, we find a large living area with kitchen and dining area, bathroom and study. On the ground floor and first floor we find another living room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main room is a large suite where the Middle Ages with its slits merges with the Art Nouveau style. Every stone and every niche have been preserved to remember the history of the buildings; through careful study the spaces have been expertly optimized, creating comfortable and bright environments.
The other tower, of approximately 170 m2, is spread over three levels; here there is a large living area with fireplace and private access to the outside, kitchen and bathroom on the ground floor, two bedrooms on the first floor and a master bedroom on the second floor.
Inside the property there is a panoramic swimming pool and a garage of approx. 42m2 above which there is a terrace that offers the ideal setting for dinners, aperitifs and lunches with a view.
The land extends for approx. 2ha: partly used as an olive grove, with 140 olive trees, and partly arable land.
The property is located in
about ten minutes from the town of Todi, and is easily reachable by asphalt road up to the gate; Orvieto is about 40 minutes away, while Rome is 1 hour and 40 minutes;
The property is currently on the tourist rental circuit, but is well suited to residential use.
