A noble palace with self-contained residences and views over the valley

In the hamlet of Colle San Lorenzo – a historic hillside village chosen over the centuries by the noble families of Foligno as a summer retreat due to its cool and secluded location – stands this impressive noble mansion, covering a total area of approximately 1,100 sqm. A property of great historical charm, protected by ancient walls and surrounded by the village’s other buildings, it is characterised by spacious rooms, original architectural features and extraordinary versatility, making it ideal as a prestigious private residence, a charming guesthouse, a serviced residence or a multi-family housing development. The private garden, covering approximately 750 sqms, is also a feature of great value, offering a spacious outdoor area where a swimming pool could be built and spaces dedicated to relaxation and socialising created. The main floor, covering approximately 350 square metres, retains the property’s authentic character through its light-filled rooms, fine original terracotta flooring, high ceilings partly decorated with frescoes, and large windows overlooking the valley. The layout of the spaces, organised around a central corridor, allows for considerable design flexibility. The floor is, in fact, already set up for the creation of two independent residential units: one more spacious and open to the view, the other more intimate and characterised by wooden beams, exposed terracotta tiles, and a living room and kitchen with a fireplace directly connected to an internal courtyard. On the second and top floor are two fully finished apartments, ready for immediate occupation, with a total floor area of approximately 250 sqm. The main apartment stands out for its spacious living area, enhanced by wooden trusses and a splendid unobstructed view of the surrounding landscape. The second apartment, connected to the main property by a spectacular panoramic terrace of approximately 100 square metres, is ideal as a guest house or annexe thanks to its separate entrance. The ground floor, accessed from Via Colle San Lorenzo, comprises approximately 300 square metres of cellars, garages and utility rooms offering a wide range of potential uses: a wellness area, a gym, leisure spaces or rooms dedicated to wine storage and tasting. The building has recently undergone major structural reinforcement and seismic retrofitting works, which included the complete replacement of the roofing, the renewal of the plasterwork and the installation of state-of-the-art double-glazed windows. The rooms still to be finished already have the necessary utility connections in place, allowing the spaces to be customised to suit individual needs. The location allows you to enjoy the tranquillity of the umbrian hills while remaining close to places of great natural interest, such as the Pale Waterfalls and the village of Rasiglia, with quick connections to Foligno and the Adriatic coast. A truly impressive residence, combining history, space and potential in an authentic setting in the heart of Umbria.
