| Umbria property is in a region
of Central Italy, bordered by Tuscany to the west, the Marche to
the east and Lazio to the south. Whether you want to buy an Italian
villa or buy a house or home in Umbria, we can help you find the
right Umbrian real estate for you..
For centuries, discriminating buyers have favored Umbrian property
over their neighbors with Tuscan property.
In Umbria, the Tiber forms the approximate border with Lazio;
although its course northwards from its source just over the Tuscan
border lies in Umbria, the river course is changeable and thus
few towns have been built on it: the Tiber itself is not a major
factor in the history and human geography of Umbria. The same cannot
be said of the Tiber's three principal tributaries, each flowing
in a generally southward course.
The valley called the Valnerina is widely considered
to be the most scenic area of Umbria. While the upper Nera flows
more or less in isolation in the mountains, the lower course of
the Chiascio-Topino basin is a fairly large floodplain, which in
Antiquity was a pair of shallow, interlocking lakes, the Lacus
Clitorius and the Lacus Umber. They were drained by the Romans
over several hundred years, but an earthquake in the 4th century
and the political collapse of the Roman Empire resulted in the
reflooding of the basin, which was drained a second time over five
hundred years; Benedictine monks started the process in the 13th
century, and it was completed by an engineer from Foligno in the
18th century.
If you are interested in property in Umbria, Mulino sul Tevere ("Mill
on the Tiber") is an exclusive new 40-acre private vacation resort
being created on the banks of the world-famous Tiber River near the
very heart of Italy. Ventura Verde, the developer, has received the
necessary building permits and is about to begin restoration and
construction of the resort.
A limited number of upscale, custom-designed country houses and
vacation apartments are now being sold "off the plans." Investors
in Umbrian propery who purchase a unit prior to the start of construction
will have the opportunity to work with Ventura Verde's architect
to custom design their own units. Then Ventura Verde's Italy-based
development team will handle all of the details related to planning,
permits, and construction.
Because construction has not yet begun on our property in Umbria,
early purchasers will have options and flexibility not available
to later purchasers, including the first choice of units and the
opportunity to personalize their units by choosing the size of
the living spaces and the number of bedrooms and bathrooms that
suit their needs.
Umbrian property units at Mulino sul Tevere offer significant
investment potential. The resort will be professionally managed
by Ventura Verde to provide owners not only with a high quality
vacation experience but also with income derived from renting to
third-party vacationers when the owners are not in residence.
Geography
Umbria's property is a region of Central Italy, bordered by Tuscany
to the west, the Marche to the east and Lazio to the south. This
region is mostly hilly or mountainous. Its topography is dominated
by the Apennines to the east, with the highest point in the region
at Monte Vettore on the border of the Marche (2,476 m = 8,123 ft),
and the Tiber valley basin, with the lowest point at Attigliano
(96 m = 315 ft). It is the only Italian region which is both landlocked
and with no common border with other countries.
