Perched high above the lush Tiber River Park, this iconic 13th-century watchtower enjoys panoramic views stretching from the historic town of Todi to the forests of the Borghi Silenti. A truly rare find, the property combines a privileged location, timeless charm, and outstanding potential for further tailored enhancements.
Originally built as a defensive tower, the structure has evolved over the centuries into a rural residence of over 400 square meters. Much of the original architecture remains intact - exposed stone walls, timber beams, and terracotta floors - lending the home a warm and authentic character. The upper floors host six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two cozy living rooms with fireplaces, while the former stables and storage rooms on the garden level have been adapted to a large kitchen/dining and sitting areas, and partially left as additional service spaces.
At the top of the tower, a bright and airy study frames stunning vistas, while two panoramic roof-terraces offer breathtaking 360-degree views-ideal for enjoying dramatic sunsets over the Forello Gorges and the rolling Orvieto hills.
The estate extends across approx. 2.5 hectares of beautifully terraced grounds, shaded by centuries-old trees. The organically managed olive grove, with around 140 trees, yields up to 1,500 kg of olives annually, complemented by a fruit orchard and vegetable garden. Two historic stone outbuildings-a former fired-oven and animal shelter-provide additional charm and offer exciting possibilities for conversion. A swimming pool may also be added.
Solid, evocative, and full of potential, this one-of-a-kind property offers the opportunity to create an elegant and authentic retreat in one of Umbria's most scenic and sought-after landscapes, with convenient access to both Rome and Perugia.
