Nestled in the green, rolling hills of the Umbrian countryside of Lake Trasimeno is a charming and private vacation home called "Il Casalino". It is one of the oldest in the tiny hamlet of Casalini and was originally used by the owners of the only hilltop castle in Casalini.
Recently restored and with the most modern conveniences, this home will delight even the most discerning visitor. The original stone has been exposed in two sections on the outside to show the architectural detail of days gone by. Inside, old brick arches, window and wall niches, wood-beamed ceilings, plus old doors and shutters all add to the traditional charm and character of this home. A pleasing mixture of modern and antique furnishings, tiled floors, and soft hues of green and coral furniture welcome you.
Set amidst terraced olive groves, grapevines, beautiful gardens and a fish pond, Il Casalino offers tranquility and comfort. Panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and sunsets are absolutely breathtaking.
Il Casalino is a two-storey, two bedroom, two bath home that sleeps 4 comfortably. Twin beds are also available for 2 additional people. It comes with a new, fully-equipped kitchen with seating for 6, electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, two refrigerators (an extra in the garage), American and European coffee makers, toaster, washing machine, dryer, hair dryers in each bathroom; downstairs sitting room with fireplace; upstairs entertainment room with satellite TV and SKY cable, broadband Internet; comfortable sofas and chairs; double bedrooms with queen beds. There is also a garden, two patios and barbecue and outdoor fireplace.
This country home is ideal for couples, friends and family because it offers privacy, and you don't have to share any facilities with others. Just 5 km away is Lake Trasimeno and Panicale, a lovely medieval village with restaurants, bars, cafès, shops and main services.
