The Miracles House with garden, Castiglione del Lago, Perugia - Umbria
Renovated 1600s stone residence with two bedrooms, garden, for sale exclusively with Apolloni & Blom in Castiglione del Lago, Perugia. At less than a mile from Villastrada, on the border between Umbria and Tuscany, just 2 miles from Lake Chiusi and 5 from Lake Trasimeno, nestled on a gentle hillside, the Miracle House, along with the ancient church there beside it (not for sale), is part of an ancient monastic settlement dating back to the 17th century. The panorama, with views over the hills to the horizon, is breathtaking. Arranged on two levels with stone and terracotta brick facades, it was completely renovated in 2014 using traditional materials and preserving the rustic character of local country houses with brick arches, chestnut wood fixtures, and stairs and terraces covered in handmade terracotta. The main entrance on the ground floor opens onto a living room with a fireplace positioned in one corner; to the left is a bright masonry kitchen with a dining area and access to the top highlight of the house: a panoramic terrace with a hand-forged wrought iron pergola, ideal for enjoying sunsets and al fresco dining. To the right of the living room is a study and a bathroom. Upstairs is a double bedroom with built-in closet and a bathroom with a window and shower. The garden is partly fenced and gated for cars access. A ready-to-live country residence in rustic style, a retreat in the quietness of the countryside where to regenerate, ideal both for private use and for short tourist rentals.
