Todi, Umbria, Address available on request

Nestled in a private yet convenient location near the charming hilltop town of Todi, this striking estate comprises a main house and a stylish annex, set within a beautifully landscaped garden and olive grove. The property combines exceptional design with functionality, setting a new benchmark for country living.

The architecture of both the main house and annex is distinguished by expansive glass facades that frame panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The interior and exterior spaces flow seamlessly, ensuring both luxurious comfort and practical living. High-Quality materials and finishes, including oak wooden floors inside and Ipè Lapacho hardwood outdoors, reflect a commitment to excellence. Custom-Made bamboo sliding panels provide shade during the warm summer months, adding a touch of elegance to the already impressive design.

The main house is designed to accommodate both family living and entertaining. The upper floor, partially integrated into the hillside, features an open-plan layout comprising a kitchen with a pantry, a spacious living and dining area, and a powder room. A Boffi unit with high-end appliances, including a Sub Zero refrigerator and a Wolf oven, adds a classic yet modern touch to the kitchen. This level also includes a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and access to a private roof garden. 
A striking open staircase with custom stainless steel handrails leads to the lower floor, where an additional living area offers versatility as a games room, office, or studio. This level includes three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and a laundry room. All rooms provide direct access to the garden and pool area through expansive sliding doors.

The annex, originally conceived as an artists studio, exemplifies sleek contemporary design. Perched atop a stone-clad concrete base, its white exterior harmonises with the surrounding greenery. The entrance at pool level opens into a large open space with glass sliding doors and a full-width balcony, offering stunning views. A double-height atrium with minimalist Schüco window frames blurs the boundary between indoors and the olive grove outside. The annex also offers additional spaces on the lower floor, which can be customised into a kitchen, living area, and bathrooms. There is also potential to transform it into a guest house or a luxurious spa.

The property covers a generous plot, accessed via a private gravel road and secured by an electric gate. A stone-paved driveway leads to the parking area and a storage facility for garden equipment. The house is positioned at the higher end of the plot, with the swimming pool as a focal point below. Measuring 6 x 12 m, the pool includes a heated infinity section that cascades into the main basin. A travertine-bordered sundeck and a gazebo with an outdoor kitchen make this area perfect for relaxation or entertaining. A discreetly placed herb and vegetable garden lies near the main house, while the olive grove with 65 trees produces high-quality oil for the household.

The property offers additional development opportunities. Plans for a secondary entrance with a cypress-lined driveway and a connecting hallway between the main house and annex could enhance the estates grandeur. The addition of a small lake or a photovoltaic system could further elevate its appeal, and there is scope to build a tennis or paddle court, subject to approval.
