Description:
PRIVATE STRUCTURE (Lease only). Set in a dominant position, with a breathtaking panorama and a view as far as the eye can see over the hills of Todi, one of the most beautiful towns in Umbria still intact and unique, and surrounded by olive groves and flowering trees, is Casal del Salice. A delightful classy residence, its exterior is clad in exposed antique stone while the interior has chestnut wood-beamed ceilings and fine terracotta floors. The spacious room, containing lounge, dining area and kitchen, with gaily-coloured walls is tastefully furnished, enlivened by arches in brick and stone and brightly-lit thanks to the windows facing directly out over the garden and pool. Casal del Salice is composed of a main house and an annex. The property is perfect for family reunions, for groups of friends and for families with children who want to spend their holidays together while preserving their privacy. The bedrooms are simply furnished with fine, unique details and are all equipped with air conditioning. The garden is full of numerous plants, tall trees and typical flowers of the area and a few metres from the portico is the private pool in a panoramic position. Sipping an apéritif under the gazebo by the pool or dining under the portico will be an unforgettable experience, especially at sunset with the view over the surrounding hills and villages. This oasis of peace and tranquillity arose thanks to the owners' interest and love of nature, animals and the extra virgin olive oil that abounds in this area, in the heart of Umbria. The residence, located in the small borgo of Ficareto, a few kilometres from Todi, has the advantage of being in a focal area for culture, art and fine food and wine. It is the perfect starting point for excursions to Orvieto, Perugia, Assisi and Spoleto, to the nearby Santuario dell'Amore Misericordioso in Collevalenza and also to Florence and Rome, being just a few kilometres from the E45 highway which links Umbria, Tuscany and Lazio. Services and shops for basic needs, open also on Sundays, can be found in Todi and Ponte Rio, just 10 minutes drive away. NB: The caretaker occasionally lives within the property, with private gate and fence in an independent position. This lady, very discreet and helpful. Please Note: when the property is rented in this solution no other guests will be present on site.

Outside the French window of the lounge/dining room/kitchen is a large portico with wooden-beamed roof, furnished with chairs, table and a mobile barbecue. In the evening the outdoor lights positioned in various strategic areas render the garden even more fascinating, both around the pool and in the rest of the property.
