Rustic Country House in Castiglione del Lago, Umbria

Details

The light wood beams, masonry arches, and terracotta flooring immediately set the tone of this rustic farmhouse with 450 square meters of commercial space: a spacious, solid home designed to welcome and be lived in naturally. The stone fireplace becomes the focal point of the living areas, while the light streaming through the windows complements spaces where diverse details coexist harmoniously, from the kitchen island with a marble top to the lacquered wooden table, and the wall-mounted bookshelf that adds a personal and homely touch. The impression is of a property that combines character and comfort without ostentation. The numbers tell the story of an important residence: 17 rooms arranged to offer breathing space, 5 bedrooms, and 7 bathrooms, with a layout suitable for both family life and representational use. Built in 2005, the farmhouse interprets the language of a country house with warm materials and references, maintaining a functional and contemporary dimension. Outside, the private garden of 10,000 square meters significantly enhances the quality of living and creates a secluded setting around the property. The rectangular private pool fits neatly into the greenery, surrounded by brick paving and sun loungers that emphasize its relaxation vocation. A stone driveway leads to the open spaces, amidst flower beds, terracotta pots, palm trees, and tall trees, while hedges and denser vegetation help reinforce the sense of privacy. The property is completed by a terrace, a garage, and the fireplace, a central presence in the daily life of the house, along with the alarm system that adds an extra layer of tranquility. Days here easily find their rhythm between cozy interiors and outdoor spaces that invite you to stay outside longer. The pool becomes the center of the summer season, the garden offers depth and tranquility, and the terrace opens up more private moments, to be shared or enjoyed independently. Even the interiors, thanks to the presence of the fireplace and the materiality of beams, terracotta, and masonry, maintain a sense of continuity with the Umbrian context and with an idea of living connected to the countryside, without sacrificing a spacious and comfortable layout. The value of this property lies in the way it combines space, privacy, and quality of the spaces, within a setting like Castiglione del Lago, in the province of Perugia, where the relationship with the territory remains an essential part of the living experience. A home that can embrace everyday life with the same ease with which it lends itself to moments of representation or hospitality.
