Historic Farmhouse & Hamlet on 42 Acres at the Edge of Umbria

Tucked into the rolling hills near Orvieto, this 18th-century estate offers the kind of Italian countryside experience that insiders prize—authentic, unspoiled, and effortlessly elegant. Spanning 42 acres at the crossroads of Umbria, Lazio, and Tuscany, the property is a world away from tourist-laden regions yet within easy reach of Rome and Florence.

A long, tree-lined drive leads to the historic hamlet, where a main house, four independent apartments, and a private chapel form a picturesque courtyard retreat. Converted in the 1990s, the interiors retain their original stone and timber character, complemented by modern updates. The estate is surrounded by centuries-old olive groves, vineyards, and medieval villages known to those who appreciate the quieter, more storied corners of Italy.

With 120 olive trees, arable land, and a hectare of woodland, the property is well-positioned for sustainable living or a boutique hospitality concept—think intimate weddings, chef-led retreats, or a private estate for those who understand the value of space and history. Nearby, Orvieto’s celebrated white wines and Civita di Bagnoregio’s dramatic landscape set the tone for a lifestyle rooted in tradition, culture, and craftsmanship.

This is Umbria at its finest—timeless, untouched, and waiting for its next chapter.
