A Romantic & Noble Villa Gets An Expressive Redesign
A modern spirit and noble character coexist side by side here along with breathtaking views of the countryside. Thoughtfully restored, we love that tradition and historic appreciation were as important as personal style. And what style!
Just the right amount of luxury and elegance combined with a sometimes edgy injection of contemporary expression and humor make this Baroque style residence a great find.
Faithfully restored from a neglected yet still graceful 17th-century villa, this home's story spans centuries and has now emerged only recently with renewed personality. Hidden beneath the decay was a gem whose transformation retains the best of the original bones and cultural essence.
With a contemporary spirit and a historic heart, you'll find cool vintage items, traditional furnishings and modern pieces interspersed casually throughout for a relaxed unfussy vibe. All of the original frescoes have returned too with the ethereal and mythic imagery reminding you of the home's history.
With three full-sized bedroom suites and four private baths (that remind us of modern versions of ancient Roman baths), there's room for up to eight total, with plenty of privacy and fun individualized design. Expect an understated but no less luxurious version of five-star pampering that includes fully customized meal service from your own Michelin-starred private chefs and wine cellar. You can always cook for yourself and will be charmed by the rustic open-plan gourmet kitchen of exposed stone and fully equipped amenities.
The indoor vaulted stone and brick pool room is a great use of and a reminder of the original house stables that have now become a luxury all-season spa, while the terraces are a great spot to dine and soak in the amazing views.
With effortless style and an independent spirit, this home has reinterpreted history.
THE MEDIEVAL HILLTOP VILLAGES OF UMBRIA
A quiet, self-contained hilltop town that still maintains its Middle Ages beauty in style and layout, the village of Monteleone D'Orvieto goes back over a thousand years. Narrow streets, and small-town life overlook the valley of Chiana below where you'll be close to Citta della Pieve which features some of the best nearby restaurants and shops.
As with the entire area, you'll feel the ancient Etruscan culture everywhere. Perugia is worth the short drive and the mix of ancient and contemporary culture. Otherwise enjoy small-town life and the stunning natural beauty of Tuscany from the villa.
