Podere Caporali

Finished in 2025, this four-bedroom villa merges the elegance of Italian tradition with the ease of modern design, in a timeless setting.


Podere Caporali is a newly built, four-bedroom villa. It takes its name from the Renaissance poet Cesare Caporali who was born in Panicale, the hilltop town that is the crowning jewel in the stunning panoramic view from the property.

Built from an old ruin dating back to the 14th century, the property was completed in 2025 and cleverly combines contemporary design with authentic Umbrian character. Flooded with natural light, the doors and windows frame the phenomenal views, anchoring the house to this beautiful and ancient landscape.

On the ground floor, a vast living room unfolds across the length of the property, made cosy by the fireplaces at either end. A distinctive tiled floor flows seamlessly into the kitchen, inspiring the house’s colour palette, while a handcrafted corten-steel spiral staircase leads to the first floor.

The four bedrooms are all en-suite, with Juliet balconies that enable an even deeper connection to the surrounding countryside. Each room has a distinct design identity while maintaining a traditional Umbrian feel.

Outside, the newly planted garden has been laid out for effortless open-air living. The showpiece is the travertine pool that is perfectly positioned to capture the magnificent views over Panicale, while iconic cypress trees line the drive and there is a nascent 250-tree olive grove.

Podere Caporali is an exciting new property with a rich heritage in an outstanding location.

Layout

Bedrooms

All four of the bedrooms are on the first floor. Flooded with light from the floor-to-ceiling windows with Juliet balconies, they have wooden floors, beamed ceilings, en-suite bathrooms and gorgeous views over the surrounding countryside.

Bathrooms

The en-suite bathrooms are individually decorated with different colours and materials. They all have large, walk-in showers.

Kitchen

The big kitchen is flooded with light thanks to double doors to the garden as well as a large window over the sink, offering stunning views. Connected by an open doorway to the dining end of the house’s huge living room, the patterned floor tiles continue across the whole of the ground floor. The kitchen is fully equipped and boasts a large central island with seating.

Living room

The impressive living room runs the entire length of the house and is the shining star of Podere Caporali. The dining area is located next to the kitchen and in front of a large open fireplace, while the middle section is a lounge area, with a more informal sitting room at the other end in front of a corner fireplace. Here there is a handcrafted, made-to-measure corten spiral staircase up to the first floor. A tiled floor runs thoughout the ground floor and there are two sets of doors out to the garden.

Other rooms

There is a pantry near the entrance to the house on the ground floor, as well as a spacious laundry room on the first floor.
