Rustic Country House in Idyllic Umbria, Castel Viscardo

Details

The exposed beams, terracotta flooring, and the presence of a masonry fireplace immediately set the tone for this rustic farmhouse of 360 square meters: a property that retains an authentic and welcoming character, where every room seems designed for a full and natural daily life. Even the kitchen, with dark wood furniture, a large solid wood countertop, and wide windows that let in the light, perfectly reflects the identity of the house. It is a tangible atmosphere, made of material, generous proportions, and details that harmonize with the Umbrian rural landscape without force. Sixteen rooms distribute the spaces of a large and articulated residence, capable of comfortably accommodating family life as well as hosting guests, thanks to 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. Outside, the 240,000 square meters of land decisively enhance the property's value, offering a direct and continuous connection with the surrounding countryside. The private pool introduces a dedicated outdoor space, while the terrace expands the possibilities of enjoying the house at different times of the day and in milder seasons. The property is completed by the garage and the cellar, elements that add functionality to an already well-structured ensemble. The house features exposed stone with brick details, a roof with brick chimneys, wooden shutters, and windows protected by metal grates. A wooden porch with exposed beams creates a shaded area to inhabit with simplicity, in continuity with the lawn and wooded areas surrounding the building. The entrance, marked by terracotta pots and a small wooden patio, also contributes to conveying a coherent, solid image deeply connected to the context. Days here find a different rhythm between generous interior spaces and an external dimension that invites one to stay outside as much as possible. The lawn, the surrounding trees, the porch, and the private pool create a way of living where privacy and tranquility become part of the routine, without sacrificing the comfort of a spacious and well-organized home. The composition of the spaces also suggests remarkable flexibility of use, suitable for both a significant private residence and a hospitality project, in harmony with the property's structure. The value of this farmhouse lies in the balance between size, architectural identity, and the surrounding land, in a context like that of Castel Viscardo, in the province of Terni, where the Umbrian countryside remains the protagonist. A property that combines substance, breadth, and an authentic presence, difficult to recreate artificially.
