Situated in an unparalleled position on a hilltop overlooking the Tiber valley, with breathtaking views of fields, rolling hills, olive groves and vineyards, this ancient castle and adjoining church dating back to the 11th century have now been meticulously restored and transformed into a luxury villa with a stunning infinity pool and is a perfect location for unforgettable events and weddings.
Space reigns supreme in this villa, from the spacious garden and surrounding grounds, to the large kitchen and 8 well-appointed bedrooms with their sumptuous marble bathrooms (6 in the main villa unit and 2 in the adjoining villa). Vaulted ceilings, reclaimed terracotta floors, 13th century frescoes, and travertine marble staircases create a unique home, luxurious without being ostentatious, that mixes modern comfort with traditional materials.
Adjacent and connected to the main villa and completely adorned with hand-painted decorations, the imposing church of Santa Maria Maddalena is a unique setting to celebrate romantic and memorable moments or to simply indulge in beauty and silence.
