Castle | Boutique hotel for sale in Umbria.

“Castello delle Rocchette” has a history dating back to at least the year 1295, where it was mentioned in a document as belonging to the heirs of Zurcio Gottofredi. It contains some interesting frescoes from the 16th century.

The castle was subjected to major restoration and structural consolidation work from 2001, which involved the walls, ceilings, foundations, roof, floor and carpentry. The castle consists of four separate parts: the noble residence, the watchtower, the central body (which houses another owner's church) and a nineteenth-century building.

Among other restoration and consolidation work, the finishes and systems of the noble flat, which is spread over two raised floors (first and second), have also been completed.
The first floor is accessed via a large internal staircase with double ramp leading to the historic hall. This hall has a spacious panoramic loggia with wooden ceiling, a sitting room and fireplace. There is a living room with wrought-iron windows and a large noble lounge with fireplace. A study, corridor and facilities complete the floor.
On the second floor, there are four bedrooms and associated facilities: the first with hood construction and waiting niches, the second with a sleeping loft giving access to the upper floor, the third with bathroom and panelled ceiling and a raised fourth room.

The watchtower is quadrangular and made of sandstone. It has pointed arch windows and pigeon holes. Currently, the structure has been reduced to a ruin as it has had limited involvement in restructuring works.

The central building consists of several levels. On the ground floor are spaces originally intended as cellars, warehouses and a stable with dining room. On the first and second floors, an internal layout was created with the aim of creating flats for rent. These are currently still in a rough state. The walls are stone and the flooring is typical of the time, consisting of stone slabs with wooden ceilings or panels.

The castle, located in the centre of a small village, is surrounded by other homes owned by other owners. It features an internal courtyard leading to the noble residence and to the church of Santa Maria dell'Immacolata Concezione, which is owned by another party.
