Just outside Viterbo, along one of the roads leading to Bagnaia, we are delighted to offer for sale a penthouse in a unique setting: the second and top floor of a farmhouse of rare beauty; an enchanting place, thanks to the tranquillity of the area and the prestigious finishes used in its restoration. The penthouse forms part of a farmhouse divided into three apartments and could include shared use of a garden and a 13,000 sq m park, which is not only beautifully maintained but also unusual for the quality of its plants: holm oaks, cedars of Lebanon and oaks. It also features a shared above-ground swimming pool, cellars and a wood-fired oven.
This property strikes the perfect balance between the classic charm of historic country farmhouses and the cutting-edge features of an elegant residence, with large reception rooms and a penthouse level offering splendid views over the surrounding hills and the greenery welcoming guests. A spacious, light-filled top floor, ready to be lived in immediately.
As you arrive at the entrance gate, the view immediately opens onto this imposing farmhouse, with its impressive ceiling heights and travertine surrounds, making the property a rarity in the countryside: a home combining privacy and the tranquillity of spaces extending from the shared garden to the entrance door, where there is a hallway with a first storage room used as a communal storeroom.
Ascending the staircase, whose shape and colour change like the story of a life progressing from stone to wood and wrought iron, you reach the top floor, where the excellent renovation, the generous proportions, the white beams and the light entering from every corner immediately impress. This floor measures approximately 238 sq m and has been masterfully arranged into a living room and open-plan kitchen, finished with the elegance of a country style typical of central Italy, where taste meets craftsmanship.
Proceeding through the various rooms, you reach three bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, and automatic rainproof skylights that enhance the atmosphere with a starry-sky effect; there is also a corridor with a storage room and pantry, and a living room that is the heart of the property. On entering, you are captivated by the high ceilings, light colours, parquet flooring, home cinema system and long balcony that brushes against the trees in the park.
This floor, currently used for hospitality purposes, has state-of-the-art systems, double-glazed windows with thermal-break frames, cooling systems, solar panels and a ventilated roof.
This property is an excellent investment as a second home for Italian and international buyers who love top-floor residences and wish to find a corner of paradise away from the chaos of the cities. It would be an ideal residence to capitalise on, for personal use and/or hospitality purposes during certain seasons, but above all a life project for couples or young families seeking privacy and the countryside in which to rest their minds, without wasting time in traffic and the frenzy of city life.
