Set on a panoramic hillside, a 10-minute drive from the historic centre of Todi, this fully restored stone country house of approximately 370 sq m arranged over 3 floors features generous living areas, 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.

Geographic position
Casale dei Glicini sits on a gentle rise just a 10-minute drive from Todi (approximately 12 km), with open views over the Umbrian countryside and the unmistakable skyline of the town. The area is one of the most sought-after in Umbria, dotted with prestigious villas and country houses set among the greenery, peaceful and private, yet far from isolated.

Around 1 km away lies a small village with a traditional restaurant and bar, while the nearest town with everyday amenities is just 7 km away.

Easy access to the E45 dual carriageway, only 15 minutes away (11 km), puts several of Umbria’s and central Italy’s key destinations within easy reach: Orvieto (39 km) is around 40 minutes by car, while Foligno, Perugia and Spoleto (48, 50 and 53 km respectively) are all under an hour away.

The property is also ideally positioned between Rome (140 km, approximately one and a half hours by car) and Florence (196 km, just over two hours).

Perugia Airport is reachable in around 40 minutes (52 km); Rome’s Ciampino and Fiumicino airports are approximately one hour and 45 minutes away by car (156 and 174 km respectively).

State and finishing
The country house has undergone a complete restoration, carried out with great care to preserve its original character: exposed stone facades, terracotta floors, wooden beamed ceilings with terracotta tiles and numerous charming original details throughout.

The result is a successful balance between authenticity and contemporary comfort.

The two working fireplaces — one in the sitting room and one in the study/bedroom on the first floor — add warmth and character, perfectly in keeping with the atmosphere of the Umbrian countryside.

On the technical side, the property features a central heating system with radiators, powered by an 11 kW hybrid gas/electric heat pump installed in 2022, supported by a 1,500-litre buried LPG tank. The 6 kW photovoltaic system and 2 kW solar thermal panels, also installed in 2022, deliver an estimated saving of between 50% and 80% on electricity bills.

External areas
The country house is easily accessible via a fully paved road leading directly to the property entrance. Beyond the access gate that can be unlocked remotely, a short gravel driveway framed by cypress trees leads to the covered parking area, equipped with an electric vehicle charging point.

The garden surrounds the house on all sides, well-maintained and fully irrigated, and features the panoramic pool, a barbecue area and the pergola adjoining the kitchen.

The property extends over approximately 5 hectares of private land, including an olive grove of around 200 trees producing approximately 150 litres of quality extra virgin olive oil each year. Thanks to its favourable aspect and soil characteristics, the grove has potential for further expansion.

The land also includes a number of fruit trees — among them figs, cherries, apples and pomegranates — as well as a useful domestic well.
