Located near **Perugia**, in a sunny position on the hills with a fantastic panoramic view, this **prestigious estate is for sale**.

The property was originally part of an **historic villa**, standing out from the hill in the middle of the small village, built in the 1500s by a cardinal who used it as his **summer residence**. With all its waters and secret channels, the hill was the ideal location for pleasant holidays surrounded by nature, enjoying the calmness of the area around Perugia.

Allegedly this villa for sale, which includes a stable and a large, completely and finely decorated palace, was built before the 16th century Cardinal residence. The palace, with an internal surface of 800 m2, then became a lodging of it. At the moment it can either be used in its entirety, as a prestigious **villa**, or divided into five large apartments.

The stable, which needs some renovation, is 650 m2 big and the 2.5 ha park of the property, is connected to the one surrounding the Cardinal's villa, which has not only historical relevance but is also important for its botanical variety and its beauty.

The Cardinal's **villa** is owned by the Italian State, but this **property for sale** has remained private, and the accurate renovations made during the years have given it a new charm, bringing back its old glory and making it one of the most exclusive properties in the area.
