Turrita


This elegant Umbrian villa with a fabulous turret and far-reaching views over the surrounding olive groves is perfect as a large family home or as an exclusive hospitality venue.


Nestled in picturesque hills near Assisi, this elegant villa combines historic charm with modern comforts, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the Tescio valley and the iconic Rocca Maggiore of Assisi. The property is arranged over two floors and has a distinctive turret with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.

Currently divided into two separate units, the elegant, shared corridor and internal staircase mean it can also be used as a single villa. The property dates from the beginning of the 20th century and renovations were carried out in 1985 and, more recently, in 2012, including earthquake proofing. The house includes a partial basement with wine and olive oil cellars, and a laundry room, too.

The property is an architectural showcase of the classic Italian style with arched double windows with shutters and wrought iron balconies. It features four spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, two grand living rooms and two fully equipped kitchens, all restored using high-quality materials. There is plenty of storage space and the beautiful olive grove adds charm to this quintessential Umbrian retreat. Additional outbuildings provide an exciting opportunity for further renovation, as guest suites or other custom spaces.

A rare blend of history and elegance, with the potential to add further value, this villa is ideal for those looking for a refined home with generous living spaces and unparalleled views over one of Italy’s most cherished regions.
