Description
Ref. no: Msv520tr
This charming 2-storey, stone built property is situated on the border of Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio, between San Casciano dei Bagni and Trevinano. It is nestled in a garden of approximately half a hectare and offers breathtaking views of the countryside and the Monte Rufeno nature reserve and Monte Amiata.
The porch, located off the living area, provides the perfect vantage point to admire the picturesque town of Trevinano as it is bathed in the warm hues of the setting sun in the evening.
The main house (approx. 400 sq.m.) has been divided into two units. The ground floor has been beautifully renovated, featuring underfloor heating beneath the terracotta tiles, a bespoke kitchen and double glazed windows. The first floor, which is accessed via a typical, external staircase has double glazed windows in place, but the rooms have been left unfinished, allowing you to personalize it according to your preferences.
The house has an integrated heating and hot water system which can be run off either a pellet stove, or a wood-burning thermal stove or the double solar panels. In the summer the solar panels supply ample hot water for the house. It has internet via Wireless ADSL which is very reliable.

A large, open plan, living space, running the entire length of the house, divided into a kitchen, dining area and lounge area with a lovely wood burning stove and doors onto a porch; 2 double bedrooms, a large room which was the original kitchen and a bathroom.

Location
Trevinano, set on a hill, is the gateway to northern Tuscia, being the northernmost town in Lazio and just a short distance from the Tuscan border and Val d’Orcia. It is 10 km from San Casciano dei Bagni with its famous thermal baths and recently discovered Etruscan statues.
The origins of Trevinano are found in the Etruscan period, although the current centre dates back to the Carolingian era. The first records are from 1073, the year in which a document was drawn up donating the village to the monastery of SS. Savior on Monte Amiata. Over the centuries various noble families followed one another until 1687 when it was handed over to the Bourbon del Monte. The female line of descent of the latter led to the Boncopagni-Ludovisi family inheriting the castle in 2003. The castle has maintained many of its original features although it is not possible to visit as it is a private dwelling and hotel.
Trevinano has recently won €20m in funds to enable its rejuvenation. Plans include a student training faculty, collaborating with the nearby Tuscia University in Viterbo, as well as renovating houses for tourist accommodation and pensioners. An improved internet connection also hopes to attract remote workers, startups and companies to the town to help reverse depopulation.
It has 2 michelin star restaurants in the vicinity:
