Borgo Benessère

Set amidst the tranquility of the gentle Umbrian hills, just a few kilometers from the center of Umbertide, this exclusive estate represents a unique opportunity for those wishing to invest in an established hospitality business or live in an authentic countryside hamlet surrounded by nature.

The property is centered around a distinctive hamlet made up of three stone buildings, carefully restored, for a total surface area of approximately 800 sqm. The buildings comprise 10 independent apartments in total, designed to ensure privacy and comfort for guests, as well as a spacious master apartment located on the upper floor of the main farmhouse. This latter features a bright double living room with open-plan kitchen, 4 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a splendid panoramic terrace overlooking the surrounding countryside.

In front of the main farmhouse is an annexe of approximately 150 sqm divided into 4 independent apartments, each with its own private outdoor space. The third building completes the hamlet with another 3 apartments, 2 of which are arranged over 2 levels.

At the heart of the hospitality business is the restaurant, fully equipped with a professional kitchen and 2 welcoming dining rooms able to host around 30 covers, ideal both for guests staying on the property and for private events.

At the center of the hamlet lies a scenic irregularly shaped infinity pool, enhanced by an elegant wooden bridge and 2 whirlpool tubs. Surrounding it is a well-kept garden rich in flowering plants, served by a fixed irrigation system and enhanced by the numerous flower varieties grown directly in the on-site greenhouse of approximately 3,000 sqm.

The agricultural component further enhances the value of the property with approximately 38 hectares of land including arable fields, pastures, woodland, an olive grove of approximately 2 hectares with around 1000 olive trees in full production, and a charming private lake providing a valuable water reserve.

In the evening hours, the hamlet becomes even more captivating thanks to the outdoor lighting designed to highlight the architecture of the buildings and create a warm, evocative atmosphere.

A rare property, able to combine hospitality, agricultural activity and quality of life, ready to be enjoyed or further enhanced.
STATE OF REPAIR
The entire complex underwent significant renovation in 2006, preserving the authentic charm of Umbrian rural architecture and enhancing traditional materials such as exposed stone. The apartments are functional and well laid out, while the restaurant is fully equipped and ready for immediate operation. The outdoor areas, garden, and swimming pool are well maintained and perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape.

UTILITIES
The heating system is powered by LPG, and 2 apartments are also equipped with wood-burning fireplaces with heating systems. The property is served by a private well approximately 50 m deep and a farm lake, ensuring significant autonomy in water supply and the irrigation of the gardens and crops. In 2023, a 20 kW photovoltaic system was installed, helping to make the estate almost completely energy self-sufficient. The property is completed by a fixed garden irrigation system, a productive greenhouse of approximately 3,000 sqm, and all the infrastructure necessary for the management of the agritourism business.

USE AND POTENTIAL USES
This property represents an ideal opportunity to continue an established agritourism business, further expanding its services thanks to the ample space available. The restaurant, independent apartments, swimming pool and substantial agricultural land also allow for the development of experiential hospitality, private events, weddings, courses, wellness retreats and food and wine tourism. The greenhouse, productive olive grove and lake also make it possible to integrate the accommodation business with agricultural and horticultural production.
