UMBRIA PROPERTIES


LA VIGNAIE
RANCOLFO


Sleeps 9 / 10

Imagine an early morning swim in a heated pool, looking at an unbelievable panoramica with the mist rising from the Tiber below. There can be few houses that combine such complete privacy - as well as being within easy reach of Umbria's best known medieval jewels.

Vignaie is the ultimate bolt hole, an escape from today's increasingly frenetic world. Located above the small village of Rancolfo, one arrives in the early summer through verdant countryside covered in yellow broom, and classic Umbrian hills as far as the eye can see. Vignaie is a traditional farmhouse, converted in the last few years by its present owner. Because of its hillside position, the main entrance is on the top floor, leading into an attractive, open beamed living room, running the length of the house. The is also an American pool table to provide amusement for the guests. Huge French doors let the light stream into this charming room with desk and study area, sitting area with fireplace, dining area and kitchen. An eclectic mixture of Bedouin cushions, Indonesian sofas, scattered rugs, and Italian cast iron beds, combine to make a most charming and cozy home. Downstairs, the cool flagstoned master bedroom with a four poster bed has access onto the patio. A natural garden surrounds the house, and the pool (with springboard) is surrounded by a lavender and rosemary edged garden with small grassed areas. A more modestly furnished annex is available nearby and is ideal for teenagers. Vignaie is a wonderful family house or for those seeking a tranquil spot in which to write, read, paint or walk.
