RESORT FOR SALE IN ASSISI, UMBRIA

Assisi, UM 06081

Not far from Assisi, the city of Saint Francis, and in the heart of the Umbrian countryside with an incredible panoramic view, 5.7-hectare estate with resort. The buildings (almost 1,500 sqm in total) have been carefully restored and now house a total of 19 guest bedrooms, an elegant wellness center and a restaurant. The 11,000-sqm garden houses the 12 x 6 m swimming pool.

Services are all available in the nearby village (10 km) in the valley below, and many of Umbria's most famous art centers can be reached in less than an hours drive (Assisi, Foligno, Trevi, Pe-rugia, Montefalco, Norcia...). Perugia airport, with convenient connections to much of Europe, can be reached in about 45'.


DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDINGS
The resort (725 sqm 7,801 sqft, 11 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms) is the heart of the property, housed in a finely renovated rustic farmhouse with modern amenities. From the central hall, the building then branches into two wings. One side leads to a hallway that in turn leads to five bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. On the other side is the wellness center with relaxation area, sauna, massage cabin, changing rooms and service bathroom.
Going up to the upper floor, the building is still divided into two wings that house six more bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a shared living room that gives access to the main wing.

The Foresteria (745 sqm 8,016 sqft, 8 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms) is instead divided into two distinct sections. The basement, with direct access from the outside, contains six bedrooms with private bathroom, the propertys laundry, a service staff quarters with two bedrooms and bathroom, various storage rooms and the facilitys technical rooms. The upper floor, on the other hand, is used entirely for the restaurant, consisting of two large halls, a professional kitchen and a bar.

The buildings have been entirely restored preserving the original charm of the structures, which stand above what was once a Franciscan refuge dating back to the 13th century. Externally, the structure retains its rustic appearance, with stone and brick walls, while internally, several rooms have been created that are characterized by two very different styles: where possible, the rustic aspect has been maintained, with exposed walls and wooden beams, while in other areas a more modern approach has been preferred, with a more sober and contemporary style that nevertheless blends well into the context.


EXTERIORS
The resort is surrounded by a well-maintained 11,000-sqm garden that extends all around the buildings and is characterized by paved terraces, tall trees providing shade and decorative hedges. A short distance from the buildings is the 12 x 6 m swimming pool with a pool bar (20 sqm 215 sqft) for aperitifs and poolside breakfasts. The trees that surround the buildings and the pool area not only provide shade, but also ensure privacy and confidentiality by sheltering the property from prying eyes.
Just below the buildings, not far from the pool, is also a tennis court equipped with a lighting system for the night.

The rest of the property is covered to varying degrees by woodland (1.9 ha), grazing land (1.7 ha) and arable land (0.9 ha) lying to the north and south of the buildings.
