A villa with an ancient flair, where the walls tell of parties and salons, gentlemen, and noblewomen, radiating a unique and timeless charm that is still palpable today. The villa is located just a short distance from the city of Orvieto, whose “Rupe” is visible between the tall trees that surround the main building. The property consists of the master villa, with a park of about 4,500 sqm, on the edges of which there are a caretaker’s house, a garage, and warehouses, in need of renovation. There is also a traditional underground cellar of about 200 sqm. The villa extends on three levels, connected by a striking staircase that culminates on the top floor where the turret is located. The main entrance opens into the reception room, on the sides of which there are two rows of arches, each delimiting a study on one side and a living room on the other. Then there is a large dining room, adjacent to the kitchen. Also on the ground floor there are other rooms, bathrooms, and storage rooms. On the first floor there is a large living room connecting the two sections of the villa, including bedrooms, bathrooms, and other rooms. This level is also accessible via an external staircase. Access to the third floor is via an internal staircase or a freight elevator. On this last floor there are other rooms and bathrooms. STATE OF REPAIR Villa La Madonnuccia was built in the 19th century and was renovated over time. The most recent intervention was in 2000. The fixtures are made of wood. The floors have distinct types of tiles, depending on the function of the room.
UTILITIES The main utilities are connected and functioning. The heating system is powered by methane. The water supply is via the municipal aqueduct. There is also a private well. In the villa there is also a freight elevator that connects the three levels.
USE AND POTENTIAL USES Featuring large and bright rooms, the villa may be turned into a prestigious residence as well as a holiday home or tourist rental, given the easy access and its strategic position, so close to both Orvieto and the A1 motorway exit.
LOCATION The property is located just 8 km from both the historic city centre of Orvieto, which stands on a tuff rock, and the A1 motorway exit and train station. Lake Bolsena is approximately 20 km away, while Civita di Bagnoregio ”The Dying City” is approximately 12 km away.
