Monticelli
Villa Monticelli, an Elegant Hilltop Villa in Umbria
Villa Monticelli is a beautifully restored country home set high on a hilltop, surrounded by woodlands yet open to breathtaking views of the Umbrian valleys below. The atmosphere here is peaceful and refined, a perfect blend of rustic charm, elegance, and the soft light that makes this region so magical.
The villa combines stone walls, wooden beams, and soft-toned interiors
with modern comfort and a relaxed countryside spirit. It’s ideal for families or groups of friends looking for privacy, space, and a deep connection with nature, while enjoying every comfort of a luxury retreat.
With its private pool, panoramic pergola, and beautifully furnished terraces, Villa Monticelli offers a rare balance between intimacy and grandeur — a place made for long lunches, golden sunsets, and quiet evenings.
Why I LOVE It
Villa Monticelli is a Place that Immediately Wins You Over, Elegant, Warm, and Full of Light.
The view from the pergola is breathtaking, and I love how the villa feels both spacious and welcoming at the same time.
It’s surrounded by woods but completely open to the hills, so you always feel part of the landscape. The interiors are soft and refined, with those stone walls and fireplaces that make everything feel authentic.
For me, it’s the perfect balance of style and serenity, ideal for families or a group of friends who want to enjoy nature, privacy, and that unmistakable Umbrian calm, with sunsets that seem to last forever.
