Cerreto Project


A unique opportunity to create a large country villa through a complete renovation of this 1800s property.


The main building at Cerreto dates to 1800 and is currently in need of restoration. Together with an independent annex, it offers a rare and exciting opportunity to create a dream home or holiday house.

Located in quiet countryside just 14km from Perugia, a large, cosmopolitan, university town with a fabulous artistic heritage, the property is accessed via a well-maintained gravel road. It has easy access to local amenities and good transport links.   

Permission will be given to landscape the garden and put in a pool, in keeping with the property’s location.

Special Umbria is available, by separate negotiation, to design, build and manage the entire project.

The other houses visible in the pictures are currently being restored and will be finished in 2025.

The starting price of EUR 2.2 mio includes the total cost of a turn-key project: purchase of land and buildings, construction (renovation, restoration or building from new, as applicable), all finishes (including tech and service systems, a swimming pool, landscaping and planting), technical fees (such as architect, engineer, surveyor), project and design management by SpecialUmbria, and all interior and exterior furniture and decoration.
