An umbrIan hideaway

 

 

 

 

A contemporary serviced retreat for those looking for privacy and luxury within a unique medieval modernist context. The auxiliary buildings and pool areas have been arranged to create a contemporary retreat. Outbuildings, gardens, terraces, and a 25 m infinity pool have been aligned on an axis with the tower to maximise the 360-degree views over secluded valleys, unchanged since medieval times, and giving the sensation of being completely removed from the modern world. Four external terraces surround the tower: On the East side a large formal dining terrace with classic Umbrian views. To the South, an open viewing pavilion forms an inner courtyard with herb gardens. The West terrace has a stone reflecting pool with sunken seating areas and overlooks the olive groves.

 

The property has six hectares of land with oak forests and fields containing olives and fruit trees. Solar panels provide energy for hot water and heating. Rainwater is collected for irrigation. Within the tower the character of the public and private areas are one where the best historical aspects have been preserved and contrasted with contemporary design and materials, heightening the sense of its history and resulting in a synthesis of the ancient exterior with sleek pared down modernity.
