Stone country house with annexe, Città della Pieve - Umbria
A finely restored rustic property with a private garden, stone-paved patios and breathtaking views over the rolling hills, for sale in Città della Pieve. This property embodies the quintessence of Italian rustic charm, defined by an imposing exposed stone façade framed by brick detailing and crowned by a traditional terracotta pantile roof. The estate extends across a total area of 291 sq m/3,132 sq ft, divided between the main residence of 237 sq m/2,551 sq ft and a raw annexe of 54 sq m/581 sq ft, ideal for conversion into a guest cottage, all set within a private park of 3,490 sq m/0.86 acres. The ground floor of the main house welcomes guests with a magnificent open-plan reception room, dominated by a brick and stone fireplace crowned by a solid timber beam. Authentic materials shine throughout, from the fine cotto floors to the ceilings adorned with exposed wooden beams and terracotta tiles. This level is completed by a characterful stone-built kitchen, an entrance hall, an elegant ceramic-finished bathroom, an additional room ready for personalisation, and a practical utility room with independent external access. The first floor, reached via a refined staircase framed by a wrought-iron balustrade, opens onto a landing leading to the sleeping quarters, comprising four double bedrooms, a second hallway and two bathrooms. Solid timber doors and traditional double-glazed windows frame the lush green views like living paintings. The outdoor spaces are a true haven of tranquillity, with stone-paved patios shaded by a delicate wrought-iron pergola, perfect for al fresco dining. The well-kept grounds feature a splendid weeping willow, fruit trees including plum and fig, and approximately thirteen olive trees, ensuring an authentic taste of Umbrian country living.
