Casa Spello Exterior
|
|
Very large Studio / 1 bath unit in a newly renovated, historic medieval townhouse located in the scenic hilltop village of Spello in the region of Umbria, Italy. This is Unit#4 (the "Cleopatra").
Once a residence for a wine and olive oil-producing family for generations, the property has been recently transformed, with the help of a local architect, into 4 separate units having all the convenience of modern amenities while retaining unique historic charm. There is a lush terraced garden available for your use, which has a view of the surrounding countryside. Each unit is beautifully furnished, and is equipped with full modern kitchen and bathroom, high-speed internet, etc. Ideally suited for weekly visits or long-term stays (discounts for longer terms).
Centrally located for daytrips throughout Italy -- just a 10 minute drive from Assisi; 30 minutes from Perugia; one hour from Siena; two hour train or car ride from Florence and/or from Rome.
The town of Spello has an authenticity that has not yet been spoiled by tourism. It sits on the Southern slope of the imposing Mount Subasio. With a population of only 6,000 inhabitants, Spello has a rich history which dates back to Roman times. It’s an ideal place for foreigners to experience the charm of a small medieval Italian village and to live like a local, experience local festivals and roam the antique / outdoor markets. It’s equally well-suited as a home base for daytrips or weekend excursions to many of Italy’s most popular tourist destinations (such as Rome, Florence, Siena, Lago Trasimeno to name just a few).
Within walking distance to public transportation (including a train station which connects to Florence, Rome, and beyond), local bakery, grocery stores, cappuccino bars, restaurants, post office, and churches. Tours of Roman ruins, cooking classes, horse back riding and spa visits can easily be arranged through a local travel agent in Spello.
ACCOMMODATION: Sleeps 2 in double bed and 2 on couch. This unit is as intriguing as its name; it is a 'monolocale' - one large open space which is comprised of a bedroom, a living room space - a small kitchenette complete with most amenities - and a small dining room area.
As you enter, there is the large living/dining room combination, with a table and 4 chairs. On the right is a double bed, which can also be converted to 2 single beds, and an antique armoire.
The ceiling in the mosaic tiled bathroom is carved into the rock. There is a shower, and cabinet with mirror above the sink, and a bidet.
The kitchen has a large refrigerator and a stove top (no oven).
Access to the adjacent garden is through a nearby gate.
