5 bedrooms top-to-bottom house, 255 m²

Castiglione del Lago, Perugia (province)

Lake Trasimeno

Only a few kilometres away from the centre of Castiglione del Lago, in a small district located in the surrounding countryside a historical property of about 230sqm on three levels, with a private piece of land of about 800sqm with olive grove. From the façade it is possible to sense the historical importance of this property, not only for the materials used, such as stones and bricks, but also for the permanent marks of splinters that reached this district during the second world war, though the façade was completely plastered during the renovation of the roof, made in the early 2000. As for the rest the structure is in perfect conditions, the heating system is supplied by a wood-burning boiler but the installations may need renovation. At the ground floor the rooms used as cellars and the storage rooms with access on the rear garden. A nice staircase leads to the first floor where on the right side there is a kitchen with fireplace and a balcony, as well as a bright bedroom with one bathroom. The floorings are made of old marble grit bricks with interesting geometric pattern. On the left side there is a living room, a laundry room, a terrace and a second bedroom. The original 'cotto' staircase leads to the second floor where there are other three bedrooms and a room used as a kitchen, besides from this floor there's an access to the attic.This property is extremely interesting, not only thanks to the materials used for building it but also for the internal arrangement of the environments on three levels, that makes it fit for many uses. On the rear side there are about twenty olive trees on a piece of land that could be a perfect place for a BBQ or even a relax area. This house could be a very convenient and spacious private residence for a family, a lovely holiday home at the centre of a small town district a few km away from the lake, as well as an excellent place to start a B&B activity.
