Old church converted to a luxury home

Exceptional living in Lisciano Niccone, Umbria - fully restored church building in a magnificent location overlooking the Pian di Marte, where Hannibal went to battle on Lake Trasimeno.

The current owner has carried out extensive restoration work about 15 years ago, using only authentic and ecological materials to create a special environment. In 64 sqm church there is a passage to an ancient crypt carved into the rock, which today makes a perfect wine cellar.

The church is attached to a 235 m² house with 4 spacious bedrooms, two of which have private bathrooms. The central entrance hall has an open staircase that gives an elegant flair to this fancy property.

There is a fully equipped kitchen, a split-level dining/living room, a study, a storage room and a laundry room.

A short walk takes you down to the pool terrace where there is a semi-circular pool with excellent views and many lovely patio areas for relaxing, dining and entertaining outdoors.

Right next to it, a small path leads through well-planted, manicured and fragrant gardens to the guest house, which has also been fully restored and is completely independent with its own access.

This also has a stunning location and has 3 bedrooms, a large living room of 33 square meters with access to the front terrace and a separate kitchen with dining area, also with access from the outside.
