Property Summary
Nestled atop a gentle hill at 380 metres above sea level, Rosa dei Venti is an exceptional vacation rental that offers an extraordinary retreat in the heart of the Umbrian countryside, in the municipality of Fabro, Italy. Positioned at the end of a winding dirt track, this elegantly designed farmhouse stands as a harmonious presence within an enchanted rural landscape, where cultivated fields, rolling green hills, and ancient hilltop villages compose a living painting of timeless beauty. Built entirely in light local stone in full respect of the surrounding environment, the property combines all modern comforts with the warmth of traditional materials, including stripped chestnut wood-beamed ceilings, natural terracotta bricks, and warm parquet flooring throughout, all accented with a refined Provençal-inspired palette of white and grey enlivened by bright touches of colour. The luminous living spaces open through French windows onto a magnificent private yard of approximately 4,000 square metres, fully enclosed with wire mesh and chestnut-wood poles and set within a broader estate of around 2 hectares, where expertly designed gardens, fragrant Mediterranean shrubs, and elegant outdoor seating areas invite complete relaxation.

High-speed Internet WiFi is available throughout the property, keeping you connected while you enjoy the surrounding tranquillity.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Rosa dei Venti are a true celebration of the Umbrian landscape and the art of open-air living. The garden surrounding the house is a succession of beautifully maintained grassy areas supported by shrubs of Mediterranean herbs, including lavender, rosemary, myrtle, and thyme, which adorn the wall-escarpment and fill the constant breeze with freshness and fragrance. Young olive trees, pomegranates, and cypress trees punctuate the large expanse of lawn, while winding paths lined with flowering tufts of gaura lead to the 2 ground floor entrances of the house. Two outdoor areas have been thoughtfully arranged beneath the porticos in front of the house: one dedicated to alfresco dining, positioned beside the dining room French window and equipped with a barbecue, and another designed for relaxation, furnished with a sofa and chairs. A short path climbs through the scenic lavender and rosemary-covered wall and over a small wooden ramp to reach the spectacular pool area, a natural terrace that stretches to the horizon and embraces the lands of the lower Val di Chiana. At its centre lies the stunning non-heated infinity pool, south-facing and equally enchanting by night, where a sophisticated interplay of internal and external lighting creates a magical atmosphere. The pool measures 6 x 13 metres with a constant depth of 1.40 metres, is bordered with ceramic tiles, lined in PVC, and features salt purification. Access to the water is via large steps. Elegant sunbeds and small tables are scattered throughout the surrounding area, which is further enhanced by a lovely wooden gazebo covered in climbing wisteria and roses. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
