PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
In the beautiful hills of Umbria, between Perugia and Orvieto, just 8 km from Todi, we offer for sale this exclusive farmhouse with garden, parking, and annex. It is located within a medieval village, a magical place where past, present, and future coexist in perfect harmony.
A pristine place where the view stretches across the meanders of the Tiber River, which flows into the valley between high rock faces cloaked in dense vegetation. The surrounding vegetation consists of olive groves, vineyards, and Mediterranean scrub forests.
This small village was born from the remains of Etruscan, Roman, and medieval walls, and is characterized by the presence of a watchtower overlooking the entire valley.
It is said that the name Torreluca derives from "Turris Lucis" (tower of light) due to its dominant and strategic position, ideal for spotting enemies.
THE LITTLE HOUSE
This charming little house, with a total surface area of approximately 90 m2, was completely renovated in 2024 and features original exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and recycled tiles.
The entire house is fully furnished, creating a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere. It is spread over three levels to offer maximum comfort and privacy. On the ground floor, there is a cozy living room with a fireplace and a kitchenette with two separate entrances. On the first floor, there is a bedroom/TV room with a sofa bed, a private vaulted bathroom, and a delightful balcony. On the second floor, there is another bedroom, a study, and a bathroom.
Historical research suggests it was founded as a Benedictine monastery around 1200. Indeed, the monastery's bell tower is still visible in the room on the top floor. Subsequently, the village became a lookout point with the Tower.
Accessed via two independent entrances, it boasts a large, well-maintained private garden. This oasis of relaxation includes a small, independent two-person guesthouse, a hot tub, a fully equipped gym, and a reading and relaxation area. The garden also features a gazebo for al fresco dining.

STATE AND FINISHES
In 2024, the farmhouse, and even before that in the early 2000s the tower and the townhouse, were the subject of a meticulous renovation carried out with great skill where the use of high-quality local materials such as terracotta, stone, exposed wooden beams and recovered antique cladding, together with anti-seismic measures, the structural reinforcement of the foundations and stone walls, were the guidelines of an exemplary work respecting the traditional architectural characteristics and faithful to the typical Umbrian canons.
The property is equipped with independent video surveillance. The Borgo is also equipped with a video surveillance system.
USE AND POTENTIAL
