Umbria, Perugia, Spoleto, Italy

Nestled in the enchanting “ Valle dei Castelli di Baiano” in Spoleto, an internationally renowned art city famous for its theater festival, this Baroque-era hunting lodge offers the perfect blend of architecture, nature and art and is now available for sale. Surrounded by 95 hectares of private parkland with natural water springs, wooded hills, olive groves and arable land, this extraordinary residence, dated 1580, retains intact its original layout. Newly renovated, it offers the possibility of being used both as a private residence and as a business activity to high-profile events and hospitality, regularly implemented by the property with excellent profits.

The main palace extends over three levels, around two dovecote towers--one integrated, the other connected by a suspended gallery features 18th-century decorations. The annexes includes a 17th-century chapel, decorated with frescoes, and old shelters, which, along with the adjacent hen house, can be converted into additional residential rooms, resulting in more bedrooms. There is an informal clearance to build a swimming pool.

An estate shrouded in history and famous for hosting the scientist Galileo Galilei, whose rooms display specially made frescoes in an excellent state of preservation. Meticulously restored by the current owners, the property also features original floors, arches, interior fountains and period-fireplaces in voluminous and sumptuous rooms.
Umbria "the green heart of Italy" because of its lush forests, vineyards, olive groves treasures architecture and history beyond compare and Spoleto is an open-air-museum worldwide visited also for its Festival dei Due Mondi.
