Property Description
Geographic position
Close to Umbertide, half an hour away from Perugia, Cortona and Gubbio, there is a place where time stands still. An oasis deep into the green, risen and developed throughout the centuries around an ancient 17th century-old tower. Local legends suggest that the tower goes back to the Lombard Age, when many towers were built, watching out the most important ways of communication.
The property, close to the small town of Montone, is easily accessible and, thanks to the High Road E45 (10 minutes away) it's well connected to Perugia, Roma, Bologna and Milan.
Description of buildings
During its 400 years of history, the core of the tower has been absorbed into further widening. The property has changed its function, no longer a watch-out and defence tower, but rather a rural dwelling.
Torre Longobarda is nowadays composed of a 424 net sq. Metres main building that includes the most ancient core; a 106 sq. metres annexe that has been restored, destined for guest quarters, and the old 164 gross sq. Metres drying room, also completely restored. The three units are disposed so that they form a private court, open on the wide solarium, in which a pool and a Jacuzzi have been realised.
External areas
The complex is located inside a 1,6 hectares land, with double access and automatic gates, fence and automatic irrigation plant.
Use and potential uses
Distribution of spaces into various buildings and the presence of multiple accesses give the property a wide flexibility of usage. In a non-isolated place, easily accessible, well connected to the High Road E45 (6 km), served by the close-by small town of Montone (4 km) and the bigger Cittàdi Castello (18 km), Torre Longobarda could be the ideal private dwelling for a permanent staying, with the possibility to destine some spaces for friends or for holiday renting, for those who wish to join a small accommodation activity to the private dwelling, yet maintaining one's independence.
The presence of the elevator is a relevant factor, particularly rare among this kind of country houses.
