DESCRIPTION
Nestled on a peaceful hillside near Niccone, in the heart of the Umbrian countryside, La Ruffietta is a captivating rural estate that combines scale, character, and historical charm. Just a short drive from Umbertide and within easy reach of Perugia, this property offers both privacy and convenience in one of Italy’s most authentic regions.
Set within approximately 8 hectares of land, the estate enjoys a south-east orientation, bathing the buildings in natural light and offering beautiful views over the surrounding rolling hills. The main farmhouse extends to around 430 sqm across three floors, complemented by a 173 sqm barn and the evocative remains of a ruined church, giving the property a rare and distinctive historical appeal.
Constructed in traditional local stone, the farmhouse retains its rustic character and provides generous internal space, currently arranged with 9 bedrooms, 4 reception rooms, and 22 rooms in total. While partially restored, the property requires further renovation, presenting an exceptional opportunity to create a bespoke residence or hospitality project tailored to individual vision.
Accessed via a well-maintained white road, the setting is tranquil yet not isolated, with nearby villages such as Montecastelli just minutes away. Essential services including electricity, water, Wi-Fi, and a septic system are already in place, and there is the possibility to add a swimming pool, further enhancing the estate’s appeal.
La Ruffietta is ideal for those seeking a substantial restoration project with significant potential—whether as a private country residence, a multi-unit development, or a boutique agriturismo. Rich in character and surrounded by nature, it offers a unique chance to bring new life to a historic Umbrian property.
