PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Castle For Sale Italy Property To Renovate In Italy
The origins of this castle for sale in Italy are ancient. According to some papal manuscripts, the castle property was built around the V Century as a military post. The highest tower, dating back to that age, is still undamaged, while the smallest one has been built
around 900, together with the boundary wall. Two centuries later the round tower was constructed and around 1400 the rest of the building was completed. A few km from Gubbio, in a dominating hilly position overlooking the whole valley, lies this lovely castle dating back to the Roman age and developed in the Middle age. Purchased by a Canadian businessman in late 60s, the castle has not been lived in for several years. The property spans about 2,000 square meters, or
roughly 20,000 square feet, the living areas are distributed across four levels. Five interconnected units include the main apartment on the ground floor, in fairly good condition, and four others that will require some restoration work. The castle also contains wine cellars, tower rooms, and a small chapel, still accessible. Plumbing and wiring are installed and working but need to be upgraded to meet current standards. A detached two-level stone house of 300 square metres
(3229 square feet).offers further development opportunities. |
