Usignolo


Usignolo is the perfect romantic countryside escape with a timeless blend of Umbrian tradition and cozy elegance with a hint of pastoral charm


This charming farmhouse, located just a short distance from Orvieto, is a quintessential gem of the Umbrian countryside, with a hint of hunting lodge making it a true retreat for nature lovers and adventurers alike. Surrounded by lush woodlands and set against a backdrop of rolling hills, Usignolo exudes rustic elegance and timeless warmth. With its stone walls, exposed wooden beams, and cozy fireplace, it captures the spirit of the outdoors while offering comfort and relaxation. The spacious living areas and intimate nooks make it the perfect spot to unwind. 

Surrounded by a very well mantained garden that perfectly balances untamed natural beauty with the cultivated elegance of nearby farms, the property invites you to immerse yourself in serene rural life. Mature trees create cool, shady retreats throughout the garden, while wildflowers, olive groves, and vineyards stretch into the distance. 

True to the area’s traditions, the farmhouse boasts ancient caves, seamlessly integrated into the landscape, adding a touch of mystery and history.

As typical of old farmhouses, which have undergone conservative renovation work, Usignolo splits into two main floors, but inside there are also small differences in level, which create movement in the flow of the layout. This create a very particular layout offering additional guest accommodations and cozy spaces for quiet reflection. 

The house was tastefully and stylishly renovated in 2009, adhering to eco-friendly principles. Original materials were reused wherever possible, including handmade terracotta tiles for the floors and wooden beams paired with terracotta tiles for the ceilings, preserving its authentic charm.

The craftsmanship and choice of materials throughout the farmhouse are exceptional, with carefully maintained stone walls, exposed wooden beams, and terracotta floors that enhance the rustic charm. Every corner of the property reflects impeccable upkeep and timeless design, blending rustic authenticity with modern comforts. This is a haven for those seeking an idyllic, peaceful retreat in one of Italy’s most captivating regions.

Layout


Bedrooms

Usignolo boasts 5 bedrooms, all different from each other, but with a common denominator: the comfort and warmth of the materials used. Each room also has its own private bathroom.

Bathrooms

Each bathroom has typical marble sinks, and either there is shower, either tub.
Cotto floors everywhere.

Kitchen

the kitchen is the jewel of the house: very spacious, with a fireplace where you can cook, and a modern wood stove, make it perfect for country life. With direct access to the outdoor area in front of the house, it offers plenty of space to enjoy.

Living room

At Usignolo there are several living areas dedicated to hospitality. On the same floor as the kitchen, there is a beautiful room with a large fireplace that reminds one of the atmospheres of Wuthering Heights, where you can find yourself in the comfort of a very cosy atmosphere. Also near the kitchen, we have the large dining room, where the manger element (they were the previous stables) has been transformed into a unique decorative element. From the dining room you can access, via a staircase, the more formal living room, where there is still a large fireplace and from whose windows the view is unique.

Other rooms

In the basement there is a convenient laundry room and space currently dedicated to the storage of bicycles.
