Cà di Pace

This enchanting stone farmhouse is perched on a scenic hillside right on the border between Tuscany and Umbria, offering breathtaking views of rolling green hills and the majestic medieval castle of Reschio. The property’s origins date back to a 13th-century watchtower, still visible today through the thick ground-floor walls. Over time, the house—aptly named “Ca’ di Pace” (House of Peace)—has been built around the original tower in various stages, preserving its historic soul. Surrounded by 6,000 square meters of land with olive trees, fig trees, and maritime pines, and with no direct neighbors, this property offers a peaceful haven immersed in unspoiled nature. The nearest village, Mercatale, with its shops and amenities, is 8 kilometers away, while the town of Umbertide and Lake Trasimeno are both reachable within 20 kilometers. The house is spread over two floors and is currently divided into two independent apartments, each with its own private entrance. The ground-floor apartment is accessed through a covered terrace that opens into a living area with a fireplace and a stunning stone arch—once part of the original watchtower. The adjacent kitchen leads to another panoramic terrace with valley views. Toward the back of the apartment, you'll find a passage room, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. Underfloor heating ensures cozy warmth during cooler months. The first-floor apartment is accessed via a traditional covered loggia and features an open kitchen, three interconnecting rooms with a fireplace, and access to a covered terrace facing southwest. This level also includes a bedroom and a bathroom. At the rear of the house is a heated technical room. This beautiful property has been carefully restored with attention to preserving its historic charm, including exposed wooden beams and some original terracotta floors. Ca’ di Pace offers flexible living solutions—ideal as a holiday home, or easily converted into a spacious family residence by connecting the two units with an internal staircase. A swimming pool can be added if desired.
