Property for sale in Ficulle, Umbria, Italy

When you arrive at this small but delightful property your immediate first impression is that you have walked into a fairytale. The little house is tall and narrow and is made of many different coloured stone, and it reminds you of the quaint little country cottages that are described in many traditional fairytales. It seems to be situated in an enchanted valley, surrounded by green rolling hills, with, on the horizon, a wonderful backdrop of gentle mountains which seem to be in perfect harmony with the silver river which meanders slowly across the valley. In the distance you can see fascinating little villages perched on the hillsides including the spectacular village of Francescano, with its stunning church completing the picturesque scene. Truly, today, there are very few of these beautiful natural landscapes which are still left unspoilt, and this small property is situated amongst one of the few remaining idyllic Italian dream locations
