Transition of a Fortified Italian Farmhouse

Posted: 16 Jul 2012 08:30 AM PDT

Once upon a time, Arrighi was a watchtower peering over Tuscany and all along the Niccone Valley, with an adjoining fortified farmhouse. In recent years, the dwelling known as Castello di Reschio, in Umbria, Italy, is the result of a meticulous restoration that resulted in a luxurious L-shaped main house, and a standalone guest cottage.

Once the fortified farmhouse and watchtower, the impressive five bedroom main house is approached via a large paved courtyard beyond the entrance gates, past the sweet guest cottage that contains a double bedroom, en-suite bathroom, library and fully-fledged kitchen.

Arrighi maintains fine Romanesque features and clearly honors the origins of the building, dating back to the 11th Century. The traditional exterior gives way to more modern tastes within it's walls, where bright accent colors add punch to white backdrops and sandstone floors.

A glass encased external staircase tower is flooded with sunlight, and soaks in the extensive view over the very private and unspoiled 2,700 acre Reschio Estate, filled with rolling hills, vineyards, olive groves, chestnut and oak trees, extensive infinity pool and pool house.

50 farmhouses are dotted around the tranquil countryside, of which the owners of Castello di Reschio, Count Antonio Bolza and two generations of his family, have sympathetically restored almost half.
