Santa Lucia

Perfectly positioned on the border of Umbria and Tuscany, this exceptional property boasts sweeping views of Monterchi and a nearby castle. The estate features a tastefully modernized former chapel alongside a restored traditional farmhouse updated for cozy, contemporary comfort. Outside, an extra-long swimming pool with a sleek dark liner provides the ultimate swimming experience.

Santa Lucia is an exquisite estate comprising a beautifully restored 13th-century chapel, (originally dedicated to Santa Lucia) and classic farmhouse, set within mature gardens with a spectacular swimming pool. Perfectly positioned on the border of Tuscany and Umbria, the property commands panoramic views across the valley toward historic Monterchi.

Restored in distinct phases—the farmhouse in 2013, followed by the chapel and swimming pool in 2017—each residence boasts a unique design identity. The farmhouse exudes cozy cottage charm with traditional cotto floors and warm, inviting tones. In contrast, the former chapel blends an ancient stone exterior with a sleek modern extension, framing interiors styled in a cool, minimalist Nordic aesthetic.
The swimming pool is located in the best corner of the garden, with a timber pergola.

The property also includes an unrestored portion of a historic ruin with an adjoining field, acquired in later stage ensuring complete privacy and offering future expansion potential.
