Ref. GV630
Located in Camerata, only 12 kilometres from Todi, this fascinating estate is situated in a hilly and peaceful position offering beautiful panoramic views over an unspoilt countryside. The property sits on an 18 hectare partially-enclosed plot of land with a 1000 tree olive grove, a 100 tree orchard and a vineyard of approximately 300 trees. The remaining land is split between 7 hectares of agricultural land and 3 hectares of woods.
The property has a living area of approximately 1000 square metres and is divided between 3 buildings, a main villa with a tower dating back to the 14th century, a guest annex, and a little building from the Medieval era measuring 60 square metres. Each structure has been attentively restored in keeping with the surroundings and using only local materials.
The main villa contains an entrance hall with steps that lead to the upstairs rooms. Also on the ground floor is a living room with a fireplace, ancient cotto-tiled floors and beamed ceilings, a guest bathroom and a store room. To the right there is a large pantry with a table for up to 10 people, a fireplace and a bricked, vaulted ceiling which opens up into a professional kitchen and a dining room that can seat up to 30 people, with a fireplace. Next to this room there is a large laundry room and another bathroom.
Upstairs, the right side of the house is totally taken up by the master en-suite bedroom which has a jacuzzi and a Tylo sauna, a walk-in closet and steps that lead to the private 50 square metre studio. This room has a fireplace and provides access to the panoramic tower. The floor of this area is made of juniper wood.
This building is equipped with an Aertecnica centralized vacuum system with 13 connections points across the 3 floors. The engine is located in the laundry room.
In terms of the guest annex, this second building is composed of 4 double en-suite bedrooms, an independent apartment of 50 square metres with a kitchen and a fireplace, a suite with a living room with a fireplace, 3 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
The common annex is actually a unique 60 square metres garret but building permission has been given to transform it into a drawing room with TV, tables and a guest library.
A huge amount of care has been put in to strengthen the estate, as Umbria is known to have earthquakes. All the foundations have been lowered and linked with a platform of armoured cement to prevent any movement. In some areas, such as the East porch, there is a piling of armoured cement down to 14 metres, above which lies a water proof area to prevent humidity.
The GPL under-floor heating system is divided into 3 independent heaters (one for each building). All the floors are waterproof treated.
The 6.5 × 12.5 metres swimming pool, with a variable deepness from 1.5 to 3 metres, functions without the use of chlorine.
Further features include two water sweaters to avoid deposits of limestone, a small bowling field with a night light, a 70 square metre bio-orchard, a wood-burning oven and BBQ, solar panels which help produce hot water in the summer, an ISDN phone line, an electric gate with video intercom, a covered parking area for 8 cars, and an automatic irrigation system spread over 120 points.
In terms of location, Todi is 12 kilometres away from the property, Spoleto and Perugia are 35 kilometres away, Assisi is 50 kilometres, Tarquinia is 80 kilometres, Orvieto is 30 kilometres, Milan 500 kilometres, Florence 200 kilometres, Rome 130 kilometres and Naples is 350 kilometres away.
