Just 5 km from Panicale, one of the most beautiful villages in Umbria, in the heart of central Italy, we offer for sale a stunning panoramic plot of land with a building and olive grove, boasting breathtaking views of the Sanctuary of the Madonna di Mongiovino, a site of extraordinary beauty.
A rare opportunity in one of the most charming areas of Umbria, ideal for those seeking evocative landscapes, peace and quiet, cycling routes around Lake Trasimeno, and the possibility of easily reaching some of Italy's most enchanting art cities by car: Spoleto, Assisi, Gubbio, Perugia, Todi, to name just a few.
The agricultural land, measuring 6,799 sqm and featuring an olive grove and existing building, is set in a uniquely panoramic position with spectacular views of the Sanctuary and the surrounding valley. It is perfect for developing one or more residential or tourist units.
Located in the strategic hamlet of Mongiovino, the property overlooks the Sanctuary's square, the hilltop castle, and Perugia. The building, dating back to the 1970s, is constructed with reinforced concrete and thick stone masonry walls (45 cm), in excellent condition. Two-thirds of the total surface area (297 sqm, approximately 200 sqm of which can be converted) can be repurposed for residential use.

The land is entirely cultivated with a productive olive grove (about 160 trees) and benefits from abundant water for irrigation and domestic use, thanks to two wells ensuring an unlimited supply. The building is divided into three rooms and includes water, electricity, a large rustic kitchen, and a bathroom, positioned between two areas currently used as storage.
