Surrounded by the tranquility of nature, Villa Rasina comprises a main house, two guest cottages, an apartment, and a studio, offering a total of 385 sqm of habitable space. The main house has been constructed on the footprint of an ancient farmhouse, designed and built by the current owner, a retired international architect. On the ground floor, you will find a kitchen, living room, dining room, and a studio. The dining room and living room form a large open area, featuring a glass-fronted wood-burning fireplace that provides warmth throughout the room. From the dining room, you can access the enormous terrace, offering breathtaking views. On the first-floor level, there is a twin bedroom with a built-in elevated bed, a bathroom, a bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, and the master bedroom with two spacious built-in closets and a private bathroom.
Adjacent to the main house, there is an open terrace with a covered stone BBQ building, a glassed-in gazebo, and a round stone table. The stone building has a circular design resembling an old mill, with an outdoor grill located in the center. The all-glass gazebo provides a spectacular view of the mountains. This area serves as a gathering point for relaxation, cocktail hours, and meal preparation and dining. Behind the main house, there is a one-car port garage.
Beneath the main building, you'll find an apartment that has been converted into a gym/spa space, consisting of six rooms in total. Currently, two rooms are dedicated to gym equipment, while there is also a spa room, a bathroom, a laundry room, and a changing room with a shower and sauna.
At a short distance from each end of the main house, there are two cottages. Both cottages have one bedroom, one bathroom, and a dining and living room area. The living rooms feature large glass windows that allow natural light to fill the space and offer great views. In front of the entrances, you'll find secluded sitting areas. One of the cottages has a stone BBQ grill area, perfect for alfresco dining. Both cottages are highly sought after for summer rentals and are ideal for hosting family and guests.
Below the pool area, there is a glass-fronted studio, used by the property's architect owner, along with a tool room. In front of the studio, there is a small patio and a small grassy area. The studio is secluded, providing a peaceful environment for work.
The property includes five buildings situated on 1 hectare of land with approximately 50 olive trees. The entire land has been carefully planned and landscaped, creating a beautiful mature garden with stone walkways that provide access to various sitting areas where you can read or simply admire the extensive views. On the pool terrace, there is a 10 x 5-meter saltwater pool, a solarium with a gazebo offering shade from the sun, and a worktop with a gas burner and sink. Villa Rasina is the perfect retreat from the noisy city, allowing you to enjoy the green hillsides of Umbria.
