The house & lake view

This home shows the great advantage of a recently built house. It is very spacious and has a perfectly logical and practical lay-out. As it was designed by a skilled architect it has many clever turns and twists which make it into a very nice environment with a good vibe. At the same time the shape and materials used are those of a traditional Umbrian country house and add lots of charm. The dominant position defines much of the atmosphere with fantastic views from every window.

The ground floor is all open space with a separate full bathroom and bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The kitchen and living both feature a fireplace. This floor connects with three sets of doors to the outdoor area. A large covered porch faces the view and  features a BBQ and double dining area. It is a delightful extension to the indoor living space. The first floor is partly  a semi-loft which offers plenty of space to serve as open space bedroom, sitting room (with fireplace) and study. The other half of this floor consists of a living with open kitchen and dining area, bathroom and two bedrooms. This part is accessible via a farmhouse style outside staircase. It can easily be linked to the loft area by simply adding a connecting door. On the other hand it is very well possible to rent out of use this part separately.

The grounds

The property stretches out over 9 ha of sloping land. The house is situated at the higher end of the plot. A gravel road leads from the main road up to the gate and continues to the parking area. Around the house a low maintenance garden offers various terraces to enjoy the view from every angle. A good size natural pool  that runs entirely without chemicals, is located next to the house. A wide wooden sundeck lies between te pool and the lake view. The property includes an olive grove with approximately 125 mature and producing trees.

The area

Civitella del Lago is a small ancient treasure not fare from Orvieto. The area is famous for its high quality olive oil and there are several vineyards in the vicinity. Access to the A1 and the nearest train station are both situated in Orvieto which is known for its stunning cathedral. Lago di Bolsena is only half an hour away and really the perfect destination for a day at the waterfront.
As the property is situated between Rome and Tuscany many other fascinating sites and cities are within easy reach.
