Oscar

The impressive, eye-catching glass facades of both the main house and the annex delicately frame the expansive views of the delightful garden and rolling olive groves.


The property boasts a striking and sophisticated appearance that is both elegant making it stand out with undeniable charm, and luxury. It is built to exceptional standards, with attention to detail and top-tier materials.

Since the main house is partially leaning against the hill, both floors have direct access to the garden. The endless amount of windows and sliding doors provide all rooms with abundant natural light. The oak hardwood floors add warmth and character to the interior of the home as does the highly durable Ipe Lapacho wood to the exterior. On both levels elegant bespoke bamboo sliding panels are positioned on the outside of the doors and windows and can be used to provide shade on hot summer days. All spaces enjoy access to the ample portico and from there to the garden and pool area.

The dependence, located next to the swimming pool, is characterized by white external parts, which are a great Mediterranean accent in contrast with the Umbrian style. Though initially developed as an artist studio this annex can of course be used as an office or become wonderful guest quarters.

The entrance at the pool level opens into a spacious, open-plan area that leads through glass sliding doors to a full-width balcony, offering breathtaking views. On the right side, halfway through the room, an impressive double-height atrium opens up from the floor below. This architectural feature is further enhanced by the façade, which consists of four large glass panels set in sleek Schuco window frames, allowing the interior to seamlessly blend with the olive grove beneath. The minimalist design is complemented by a poured concrete floor that adds to the modern aesthetic. The lower level offers additional spaces that can be customized, including potential areas for an entrance, kitchen/living space, and two bathrooms, all of which can be tailored to your personal preferences.

Oscar is ideal for those looking for a permanent home with all the necessary comforts or as a rental investment with great potential for returns. It is brilliantly placed for exploring some of Umbria and Tuscany’s most celebrated vineyards and hilltop towns.

Facilities

Outside

Strong brick columns support both a pedestrian gate and a double electric gate. A stone-paved driveway runs beside the house, leading to a parking area below. This area also houses the pool’s technical room, a workshop, and storage for garden equipment. The house sits at the higher point of the plot. The 6x12 meter pool features a smaller heated infinity section that cascades into the main pool. A charming gazebo with an outdoor kitchen is ideal for enjoying meals or relaxing at any time of day. The expansive sundeck surrounding the pool is bordered with elegant travertine. A thoughtfully designed herb and vegetable garden is tucked away between the house and the annex. Below the annex, the land gently slopes towards the valley. The olive grove, with 65 well-maintained trees, provides the household with high-quality olive oil.

Surroundings

Oscar is located in one of the best pockets of this beautiful landscape, close to Todi, Orvieto and Deruta, and the vineyards of Montefalco. Todi, a fifteen-minutes drive away, is a buzzy town with a rich history and a wonderful choice of restaurants, pizzerias and gelaterias offering delicious and authentic Italian flavours. Umbria is also known for its traditional linens and cashmeres that can be found in Todi, too. Orvieto is another delight, famous for the incredible cathedral with its golden façade that is renowned as one of the most beautiful in Italy. The town has a lively centre and is well worth a visit. Deruta is famed for its traditional Maiolica – tin-glazed pottery decorated in colours on a white background. The town has 250 factories producing everything from huge outdoor pots to tiny handpainted espresso cups in this colourful ceramic. This is an area of Italy where food and wine are taken seriously. There is a wine museum near the vineyards at Torgiano where you can learn about the history of winemaking, go on a tour and, on the same ticket, visit the local olive oil museum. Both Montefalco and Montepulciano, famous for their grapes, are not far away.
