Description complète
Tulip House is a unique property located in the hamlet of Preggio, on the border between Umbria and Tuscany, which will captivate you from the very first moment you step through its gate. Here you are completely immersed in nature and silence, in a place where time slows down and it becomes possible to reconnect with yourself.
Built in 1998 and fully renovated in 2022, the property is presented in impeccable condition, ready to be lived in. With approximately 315 sqm arranged over three levels, it offers elegant and light-filled interiors: two spacious living rooms, a modern Varenna-designed kitchen with island, four double bedrooms each with its own en-suite bathroom, one of which features a bathtub, a small bedroom/study, and a guest bathroom on the ground floor. Tulip House, originally conceived as two separate homes and later unified into a single residence by the current owners (as evidenced by the distinctive double internal staircase in iron and wood), can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people today. The finishes are of high quality, and all systems have been completely upgraded, featuring modern heating and air conditioning systems.
Externally, the house is surrounded by a meticulously maintained panoramic garden, fully fenced and equipped with a well, with porticoes embracing the residence on all four sides and numerous relaxation areas, true outdoor lounges where you can enjoy quiet moments with a good book. On the first floor, the living room opens onto a panoramic portico, perfect for savoring a delightful aperitif while admiring the sunset, while on the second floor each bedroom features a terrace enclosed on three sides with windows, allowing it to be enjoyed throughout the year.
The heated 10x4 m swimming pool, with a salt system and solar panels, is complemented by a pool bar with portico, wood-fired oven and fully equipped area, ideal for hosting lunches and dinners immersed in the surrounding landscape, where the view opens spectacularly over two valleys, offering breathtaking vistas of the Umbrian and Tuscan hills.
The property is completed by a stone outbuilding that can be converted into a guest annex or laundry room, a charming 60 sqm vegetable garden, and approximately 3,000 sqm of buildable land planted with an olive grove of over 50 productive trees. The position is elevated, sunny and private, yet easily accessible via an asphalt road.
A rare place where modern comfort, absolute privacy and natural beauty blend in perfect harmony.
STATE OF REPAIR
The property, built in 1998, was completely renovated in 2022 by the current owners, who paid attention to every smallest detail. All systems are new and the roof is insulated.
There is also a carport for 2 cars and an outbuilding of approximately 34 square meters to be renovated, already supplied with water and electricity, where a laundry room can be created.
The 3,000 square meter plot, already planted with 50 productive olive trees, has its own separate driveway access and is buildable. The garden is entirely fenced and therefore features two driveway entrances and one pedestrian access.
UTILITIES
The property is connected to all main utilities; the heating system is powered by natural gas, the water supply is provided by the municipal aqueduct, while wastewater is managed through a private septic tank.
With regard to renewable energy, there is a predisposition for a photovoltaic system. The 10x4 mt saltwater swimming pool is heated by solar heaters and is connected to a home automation system that allows control of temperature, water levels, and purification.
Inside, the house is equipped with air conditioning in the two bedrooms on the top floor, the only rooms that may be more affected by heat as they are located under the roof.
USE AND POTENTIAL USES
Thanks to its location and being ready to move in, Tulip House is perfectly suited as a prestigious second home to experience Umbria and Tuscany immersed in nature, as well as a charming primary residence.
It can also generate income through the tourist rental market.
