Stunning Panoramic Villa near Rome, Pool (heating optional)

Go for a swim whilst enjoying the view of the Umbrian hills, treat yourself to long lunches on the veranda and round off the day by the fireside. Il Casale degli Ulivi is a villa with panoramic views, restored by the architect-owner, set amongst 5,000 m² of olive groves and gardens, with a heated swimming pool (an optional extra service during the opening season, from late April to early November), for the exclusive use of up to 11 guests, about 50 minutes from Rome.
Il Casale degli Ulivi: a house with a history. In 2000, our family purchased a farmhouse that had been abandoned for decades; its restoration took years, using high-quality materials and period furnishings. Today, it offers 240 m² (2,580 square feet) of light, character and comfort, designed for families and friends who wish to spend time together, with plenty of space to breathe.
The spacious living-dining room features a large fireplace and a table big enough to seat everyone. Two doors open onto the 55 m² (590 square feet) covered veranda overlooking the hills: the ideal spot for breakfast, long lunches and an aperitif at sunset. The spacious kitchen-diner is fully equipped (dishwasher, oven, microwave, fridge-freezer and chest freezer).
Three bedrooms, each with a double bed, a single bed and air conditioning: one on the ground floor, two upstairs overlooking a large panoramic terrace. Two sofa beds, one in the ground-floor living room and one in the upstairs living room (air-conditioned)
2 fully fitted bathrooms with showers, one on each floor.
Swimming pool measuring 12.5 x 4 m (41 x 13 ft), 1.35 m (4.4 ft) deep, with an outdoor shower, parasols and sun loungers.
Barbecue, garden furniture, private parking, Wi-Fi, TV, a well-stocked library and board games, 2 washing machines, 2 vacuum cleaners, iron, hairdryer. Bed linen, towels and table linen are all included.
Guests have access to all indoor and outdoor areas of the property, except for the underground pool plant room and the wooden shed in the car park.
