PROPERTY INFORMATION

|
|
| Arriving at Villa Sorgente is a complete surprise. Only 15 minutes drive from Orvieto, it is accessed by a long, countrified private drive leading to an electric gate and then to what initially appears to be an almost modest property – then the surprise unfolds as the eye has been fooled. Entering the highly polished terracotta tiled hall, it is clear that Villa Sorgente is a very special property,with a first tantalising glimpse straight ahead of the panorama beyond through a large picture window. A cosy small sitting room / study (with a piano) makes an alternative to the large and very elegant drawing room, with oil paintings and persian rugs, with all round views maximised by huge glass windows and french doors leading to a lovely dining terrace. Those interested in cooking will be impressed by the very well-equipped kitchen complete with large American fridge. The layout of the bedroom areas offers great comfort for couples, or as family accommodation. Extensive well-maintained lawns surround the house leading to a pretty lake with resident swans and the swimming pool area, with beautiful roses and lavender walks lining the way. The pool area is,perhaps, its most spectacular feature, with comfortable furniture and shade combined with the sensational view from above making it somewhere you will be relucant to leave. Sitting with a drink at dusk, with Orvieto Cathedral silhouetted against the starlit sky is a truly memorable experience. Highly recommended. |
