House for sale in Umbria, Italy: property in Collazzone, Perugia province

Elegantly perched on its hilltop, this house for sale in Umbria, Italy is surrounded by roses, lavender, rosemary and olive trees. This magnificent south-facing house commands a breathtaking view across vineyards, olive groves, orchards, woodlands, sunflower and wheat fields, towards Todi. The house is in Collazzone in Umbria's Perugia province.

The main house, 150 square metres on one floor, includes a large living room with fireplace, kitchen with a wood-fired pizza oven, dining room with pellet-burning stove. There are two double bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, and a separate guest toilet and dressing room. The arched portico, 50 square metres, roofed with terracotta tiles and chestnut beams, runs along the entire south and east side of the living room and is accessed by three sets of double French windows. There is, also, a guest suite of 50 sqm, entirely independent and built into the side of the hill, comprising a large living room/kitchenette, a bedroom and a bathroom, with the incredible view across the infinity pool (10 x 6 metres) and the 400-year-old oak tree, towards Todi and beyond.
