Tenuta Equestre DI Lusso In Vendita A Orvieto, Umbria

On the hills of Orvieto, in southern Umbria, 45.9-hectare estate for sale. Renovated in recent years and finished with fine materials, the property consists of three buildings and is perfect both as a private home and as an income property thanks to the presence of three separate residential units. The agricultural land surrounds the buildings and includes an Orvieto DOC vineyard and 400 olive trees as well as forest paths and fields suitable for horses.

Access is via a short well-maintained unpaved road and from the property you can easily reach Orvieto (less than ten minutes) where all necessary services are available (schools, supermarkets, hospital, pharmacies...). In less than an hour’s drive you can then reach many art cities of Tuscany and Umbria, which makes the property very attractive also from the tourist-receptive point of view.
