The Residence

It doesn’t get much more Renaissance than this. Through ancient woodland and olive groves this stately chateau emerges, the history and opulence seeping through its every crevice. With four floors and a turret, as well as 2 hectares of privacy and views for days, your time here will be spent in absolute luxury and care-free abandonment. Once owned by Roman architect G.B.Milani, gilded ceilings and works of art make you feel as if you’re wandering the halls of a museum. Everything has an antique feel, from hand-painted headboards in the bedrooms, to the family crest displayed proudly above the fireplace in the grand lounge. It's a very different vibe in the kitchen, where shining chrome and steel
combine to create a restaurant-standard place to cook. And outside is even better. The infinity pool is framed by sprawling vistas of Umbria, whilst on the second terrace you’ll find a panorama of the 12th-century skyline of Spoleto. There’s something about sipping a glass of wine as you survey the lands below that you can’t beat, and this home is perfect for doing just that.
