luxury house for sale Castel Viscardo, Italy

In the picturesque village of Torre Alfina, a jewel nestled in the province of Viterbo, stands a monument of incomparable beauty and history: a medieval castle spanning 5000 sqm of interiors (53819 sqft) spread over 5 levels, and 1000 sqm (10,764 sqft) of lush private garden. This majestic castle boasts a history that traces its roots back to the early Middle Ages and extends up to the 20th century, reflecting the evolving architectural trends and socio-historical changes it has undergone. Originally a high medieval fortification of the Monaldeschi della Cervara family erected in the 8th century, it underwent significant transformations under Sforza Monaldeschi during the Renaissance. Its most radical metamorphosis occurred in 1880, when it was acquired by Count Edoardo Cahen d'Anvers, who commissioned architect Giuseppe Partini and gardeners Henri and Achille Duchêne to redesign the castle in a renewed medieval style. This wonderful property offers 35 rooms. The ground floor of the castle features an imposing gallery adorned with frescoed walls, vaulted ceilings with inlaid wood, statues, and marble floors. Here, through large windows with full arch frames, one can enjoy an expansive view of the village below and the green Lazio countryside. The upper floor, the piano nobile, consists of a spacious and scenic gallery, more than 10 rooms, a dining room, several reception rooms, and a library with wooden floors. The second floor houses the attic spaces, almost entirely made up of a sleeping area with several bedrooms, along with spaces that include attic rooms, closets, and storage rooms. The interiors of the five towers house beautiful rooms with panoramic views. The Renaissance garden, with its panoramic view, is a true oasis. The fountain with its water features and the geometric designs of the flower beds and hedges create a landscape where nature and art blend in perfect harmony. This fortress represents a unique experience immersed in a rich and fascinating history, a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

Orvieto - Poggio Montone. We are pleased to handle the sale of a spectacular Borgo Fattoria immersed in the greenery of its private park, with a truffle vocation. It consists of no less than 55 hectares, 31 of which are arable land, irrigated by the property's small lake, and 21 hectares of woodland with tall trees. The property consists of a large manor house surrounded by farm buildings used as dwellings for the farmers, warehousemen, workers, carpenters and their families. Built in 1873, based on a design by architect Paolo Zampi, Poggio Montone was one of the first farms in Italy to breed pure English blood horses for gallop racing (Scuderia Bertone). This is why we find the stables for brood mares and stallions, the stud room and the coach and buggy depot. At the entrance to the large courtyard, we can see an evocative aristocratic chapel designed by architect Carlo Zampi, with frescoes by painter Tommaso Onori and a bronze portal by Maurizio Ravelli. The location is evocative, its high position on the hill allows a breathtaking view of the countryside, and Orvieto is also very well connected to Rome both in terms of distance and easy access. The historic equestrian facilities, the stone stables, the church and the small lake give the property a unique atmosphere. The hamlet falls within the DOC ‘Orvieto classico’ production area. Great potential for use as a Hotel, Relais and Resort.
