Description

Apartment inan ancient hamlet, Piegaro, Perugia - Umbria

Apartment for sale in Greppolischieto, in the hamlet of Piegaro in the province of Perugia.
The property is located in an ancient village whose origin is not certain. Between the 11th and 12th centuries Greppolischieto was bitterly disputed by Orvieto and Marsciano, but then fell under the Perugian orbit.
After the construction of the surrounding walls, it appears in public documents as early as 1380 as a castle. The well-preserved walls of the ancient settlement remain today, interrupted by a single pointed door. Inside the village we can find the parish church of San Lorenzo, rectangular in shape. The roof is vaulted, supported by four large transverse arches. In every space, in every corner and in every detail, the respect and conservation of the history lived in this fascinating place is evident. The medieval village has been completely renovated, like the apartment in question; of about 100 square meters, is located on the second floor and overlooks the hills and Lake Trasimeno with an enchanting view. As on the outside, the house also preserves traces of its history inside. The floors are in terracotta and the ceilings are made of wooden beams and terracotta tiles, the doors date back to the 1700s and in the living room an ancient fireplace is still the fulcrum of convivial moments today. Ideally located for visiting Lake Trasimeno with its beaches and ferries to small islands, Chiusi with its Etruscan museums, Perugia, the Umbrian capital just 30 km away, Castiglione del Lago with the castle and its numerous shops offering local specialties and the wonderful Orvieto. If you want to relax in the thermal waters, a few kilometers away we can find San Casciano dei Bagni.
