Geographic position
Villa Elegantia is an exclusive historic residence surrounded by a 7-ha plot of land. It’s fifteen minutes from Assisi (10 km) and Perugia (17 km), half an hour from Spello (25 km) and Lake Trasimeno (36 km), and one hour from Todi (48 km) and Spoleto (61 km).
The nearest built-up area for your daily errands is just 2 km away.
In addition to being particularly appealing to tourists, the area is well-connected and well-served. That’s why Villa Elegantia is perfect as a main residence and a holiday house, from where you can visit Central Italy’s most famous cities.
Families who decide to make it their main residence can benefit from the presence of two major international schools in Assisi and Perugia:
- the Assisi International School, which offers an innovative, comprehensive, and enhanced school curriculum that includes the Primavera (24-36 months), Nursery School (3-6 years old), Elementary School (6-11 years old), and Middle School (11-14 years);
- the International Montessori Centre, a private school for all ages, from nursery to high school students. It offers a bilingual Italian-English curriculum, where native-speaking teachers work with their students 5 hours a day.
Moreover, Perugia is a historic university hub and home of the prestigious University for Foreigners.
Golf lovers can play their favourite sport at Perugia’s Golf Club. This gently wavy 18-hole, par 72, 5,735-metre golf course has a central core that dates back to the late 1950s. Its clubhouse is an old lime furnace dating back to 1921 and has maintained the imposing towers overlooking the entire course, which hints at British golf courses.
The airport of Perugia is the nearest one (7 km, 10 minutes by car); whereas the airport of Ancona (106 km) can be reached in one hour and a half. Within two hours, you can get to the airports of Florence (178 km) and Rome (Ciampino is 190 km away and Fiumicino is 207 km away).
Description of buildings
Cypress trees outline the driveway leading to the villa. Its original layout dates back to the 16th century and still conceals important historical evidence from pre-Roman times and the 18th century.
Villa Elegantia has a net saleable area of 964 sq.m and develops over three floors. In addition, it has two terraces measuring 47 sq.m and 26 sq.m. The 40 sq.m portico has several entrances from the outside, allowing access to each floor of the villa.
Despite two airy living rooms and the 40 sq.m portico, the ground floor is mainly used as accessory rooms, with numerous storage rooms, cellars and a garage.
The first floor includes two living rooms, a kitchen, two studies, a large storage room, a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, an additional bathroom, and two terraces, one of which leads to two other rooms that can be used as a living room and dining room.
The second floor houses a living/dining room, three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and three studies.
Moreover, this property has 3 outbuildings that can be used as a storage room, workshop and cellar.
The area is calculated on the basis of the net floor area including interior partitions and increased by 10% for load-bearing walls.
The portico area and the terraces are calculated separately and should be added to the total area.
