San Pellegrino


The Roman owners of San Pellegrino have rewritten their family history in architectural form by fusing old and new in this design-led reimagining of their grandparents' Umbrian farmhouse


San Pellegrino is a wonderful modern house with a family history. In 2016 the owners finished the building of this unique villa, which was once the land of their grandparents. The house is set among pristine hills on the edge of an oak forest. In renovating the house, the owners managed to create a powerful space which combines nature, peace, modern design and creativity. Thanks to the talent of architect Pia Karin Spreafico the ancient stones of the former farmhouse where used to create  an external shell within a new structure in concrete was created. 

The property has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathooms and it positioned near Gubbio, Gualdo Tadino and even not far from Perugia.

The central part in this house is the large kitchen where it's a real joy to cook and eat in company with family and friends. The house is designed well, with minimal furnishings to give your mind a rest from the overstimulation of urban life, as well as the invitation to swim, listen to good music, read, write and draw.

San Pellegrino is the ideal holiday location for people who like nature and privacy and love modern design and good architecture.

San Pellegrino was featured in ELLE Deco in May 2018, and on THE SPACES blog in october 2017.

Owner tips


Where to eat

The owners' two favourites are La Cantina di Spello, a cosy, romantic and traditional osteria, make sure you try the truffle frittata, and L'Alchimista in Montefalco, for authentic regional cooking on a wonderfully picturesque medieval square. Its menu is very seasonal, but if you're there in spring, the wild garlic pesto pasta is simply the best.

Beaches

Umbria has no coast of its own, but the Marche beaches are an hour away. The owners' favourite is Senigallia, with its timeless elegance, retro beach clubs and excellent restaurants: their go-to is the simple, understated Bagni Mafalda, while Bagni 77 offers a little more comfort. For crystal-clear water, take a boat trip to the Spiaggia delle Due Sorelle on the Conero coast.

Don't miss

Simply stay in San Pellegrino: the kitchen is big and cosy enough to call for long evenings of cooking, glass of red in hand. Book a cooking class or, if you'd rather skip the cooking altogether, a private chef, the owners know just the right people.
