About Vecchio Convento

A 53 hectares property located in the middle of Umbrian woodland, quite isolated and currently reachable through a white road winding for more or less a kilometre under chestnut trees, truffles and wild boars. The land includes 35 hectares of woods, 15 of agricultural and the remaining divided between olive trees and chestnuts. The main building, a former friars’ convent, sits at the top of the property, which slopes downhill enjoying a great view of Umbria. Just besides the convent there are two additional buildings: a shed, collapsed, but re-buildable as habitable space and a renovated building divided into separate apartments. Utilities are all in need of reconnection.
