Estate With Villa, Swimming Pool And Tennis Court For Sale In The Niccone Valley, Umbria

Located in the unspoiled and sought-after Niccone Valley, on the border between Umbria and Tuscany and in close proximity to the famous Reschio Estate, this extraordinary panoramic property offers absolute privacy, refined luxury and an impeccable level of achievement. Set in over 18 ha of perfectly manicured grounds, a short distance from Cortona and Lake Trasimeno, the property represents a rare opportunity to purchase an Italian estate ready to live in one of the most exclusive areas of central Italy.

Originally consisting of the ruins of an old farmhouse, the property has undergone a careful and meticulous four-year renovation, desired and overseen by the current owner in collaboration with local craftsmen, stonemasons, artisans and artists.
Materials were carefully selected from salvaged warehouses, and nothing was left to chance in the creation of a timeless residence, where traditional Umbrian architecture blends with contemporary elegance of the highest standard. All buildings feature double-glazed windows and doors and underfloor heating, ensuring high levels of comfort and energy efficiency.

The property enjoys total privacy, enhanced by breathtaking panoramic views, two independent entrances, three electric gates and a high-level security system. Despite the absolute privacy, the location is strategic and convenient, with easy access to the main Umbrian and Tuscan locations of major historical, cultural and food and wine interest.

The estate is managed year-round by dedicated staff, ensuring impeccable maintenance in every season. The sale includes the farm machinery and most of the outdoor furniture, allowing for an easy and immediate transfer of ownership.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS
Built on the site of the original country house, the main villa (470 m² – 5,057 ft², 2 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms) is on three levels and represents a perfect synthesis of traditional architecture and contemporary comfort. The entrance is through an elegant vaulted stone portal, which leads to a refined living room with fireplace, a study and a guest bathroom. The heart of the house is the magnificent kitchen with dining area of about 56 m², fully equipped with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, designed for daily use but also for convivial moments. Large openings lead directly to a panoramic terrace covered with wisteria and equipped with a barbecue.
The second floor houses a second study and a splendid guest room with private terrace and bathroom with double shower. The master suite, located in the tower and about 70 m² in size, is a true private retreat, with bedroom overlooking exclusive terrace, walk-in closet and large bathroom clad in honey-colored travertine.
The basement accommodates a fully equipped gym with Turkish bath and shower, a charming cellar with stone vaults, laundry, technical room, service bathroom and ample storage space. A characteristic vaulted tunnel leads directly to the 17 × 7 m swimming pool, with salt chlorination and electric cover, surrounded by terraced gardens and sunbathing areas.

Next to the villa is a delightful two-story guesthouse (90 m² – 968 ft², 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, each with a separate entrance. The ground-floor room opens onto a covered pergola, perfect for creating a shady and private relaxation area.

The farmhouse (382 m² – 4,110 ft², 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms), built in stone according to local tradition, features contemporary interiors, with an impressive open space of about 80 m² that includes living room, kitchen and dining area.
