The location is very private: you can reach the house driving through a 600 mt white road. By the way, the first town with services is just 2,5 kms away and beautiful Orvieto is 10 kms from the house (about 15 minutes by car). This means that you can enjoy a city life easily and every time you want: in Orvieto you can find typical restaurants and osterias, cinemas, theatre, you can enjoy art and cultural events or you can just have a walk along the town’s alleys, that now have a medieval look, but whose roots go back to Etruscan times.

It can be enjoyed as a holiday home, where to host your friends and family or as a private home to make your right move to Italy and radically change your lifestyle. It could be also used as a rental property to get an income: you could rent out the whole property or – thanks to its internal division – you may live in the north wing of the house, while renting the bedrooms located in the south wing. Profit is guaranteed with this house: millions of people every year are visiting Orvieto and Umbria in general. Many of them look for properties like this, where they can stay and experience life. From here, tourists can easily reach unique Civita Di Bagnoregio and Lake Bolsena in region Lazio, Tuscany, Todi and other tourist destinations in and out of Umbria.
