| An old oil-mill dating back to 1800 was restored
according to its original, local architectural style and
converted into Villa Giulia.
The entire outer surface is covered with stone, thus
enwrapping the Villa's majestic, imposing structure in a
magical, enchanting, rural atmosphere of times gone by.
The villa's panoramic position undoubtedly recalls its
origins, as it is extremely easy to reach and is immersed
in olive groves stretching right up the hill.
|
|
|
In fact, the Villa lies at the foot of the
slopes of a hill named Mount Qualandro, on the border
between the gentle Tuscan landscape and the green
countryside of Umbria; on the top of the mountain in the
background stands an impressive castle and a splendid view
of Lake Trasimeno and the Chiana Valley stretches out in
the foreground.

|
|
There are two separate buildings on the estate: the master
villa and the small, adjacent villa.
The main entrance to the three-floor master villa is
directly from the garden and there is also a back entrance
to the bedrooms only.
The ground floor is used as a daytime area with a large,
approximately 50 sq.m. dining room, complete with a
splendid brick archway and stone fireplace, and a
convenient, comfortable double bed-settee; the 16 sq.m.
open-plan, stone kitchen area is typical of what can be
found in numerous farms in the area, and is fully equipped
with all household appliances and accessories; last of all,
the old wood oven has been converted into a 10 sq.m.
bathroom with a shower and two sandstone washbasins.
|
|
|
|
|
| The first floor consists of a small reading room or
drawing room with a stone fireplace and double bed-settee;
a hall for the second back entrance to the house, which
also acts as a passage to the other two bedrooms, one with
a double bed and the other with two single beds, both
decorated with wall paintings depicting scenes of the
nearby castle and the surrounding landscape; there is also
a 5 sq.m. bathroom with a whirlpool shower. |
|
|
The attic on the second floor has yet another 22 sq.m.
double bedroom with a canopy bed, an antique writing-desk
and a trompe-l'oeil depicting the view which can be
admired from the large, panoramic window overlooking Lake
Trasimeno.
|
|
|
Next to this, the original drying-room for grain has been converted
into another 20 sq.m. bedroom with two single beds; and to complete it an
8 sq.m. bathroom with a whirlpool bathtub and shower.
Total number of beds in the Master Villa 8+4 in a total of 183 sq.m.
|
|
| The small villa alongside the master villa has a wide,
exclusive colonnade measuring approximately 18 sq.m., from
which there is a charming view of the surrounding
countryside.
On the ground floor we find a cosy, 20 sq.m living room
with a stone fireplace and bed-settee; the fully equipped
kitchen is entirely tiled with hand-painted tiles (7 sq.m.)
and the bathroom has a whirlpool shower (5 sq.m.).
|
|
|
Upstairs there is a large, period double bedroom with a
wrought iron bed, wooden beams and a window with a
charming view of the surrounding landscape (20 sq.m.).
The plain country-style interiors have all been
furnished with carefully selected, elegant and refined
period furniture. No detail has been left unheeded to give
an extremely comfortable and at the same time particularly
welcoming ambient.
The entire building has air conditioning, independent
heating, satellite TV and an alarm system.
|
|
|
|
|
| Completing this splendid picture there is an 18 x 7
metre, illuminated, sunken swimming pool paved with mosaic
tiles, surrounded by the century-old olive trees on the
estate, a children's playground, table tennis, n° 4
mountain bikes, a covered car-park and nature paths.
Total number of beds in the Small villa 2+2 in a total
of 52 sq.m. |
