Historic Fixer Upper Mansion for Sale in Umbria – Italian Palazzo Umbertide

This historic fixer upper is a large palazzo located in the historic centre of Umbertide in the province of Perugia, Umbria. Positioned within walking distance of services and close to the Tiber River, the property offers a rare opportunity to acquire a fixer upper mansion in Italy with substantial internal space and private outdoor areas. The building extends over five floors with a total internal surface of 773 square metres (8,317 sq ft), plus a private garden of approximately 1,000 square metres directly connected to the riverbank.

The structure has already undergone key structural works, including the rebuilding of the roof and restoration of the façade, while the interiors require full renovation. This creates a clear opportunity to redesign the internal layout according to residential or multi-unit use.
A project for subdivision into multiple apartments is already available, supporting its potential as a restoration property in Umbria or a redevelopment project.

The property retains original architectural elements typical of an Italian historic palazzo, including stone and brick construction, wooden beams, terracotta flooring, frescoed rooms, and Liberty-style details. A central staircase in Pietra Serena, with Art Nouveau wrought-iron railings, connects the floors. The basement level includes vaulted rooms with direct access to the garden and incorporates part of a historic tower foundation linked to the Porta della Campana, reflecting the town’s medieval origins.

The upper floors include multiple rooms with access to terraces overlooking the garden and the river, as well as a panoramic top-floor terrace with views across Umbertide and the surrounding Umbrian landscape. The attic level provides additional usable space with three rooms.

Utilities require updating, including the installation of heating and the connection of electricity and telecommunications. Mains water and natural gas are available.

Located in the Upper Tiber Valley, Umbertide provides access to key Umbrian and Tuscan destinations, including Città di Castello, Gubbio, Perugia, Assisi, and Florence. The nearest airport is Perugia San Francesco Airport at approximately 33 km.

This historic mansion property for renovation in Italy is suitable as a large private residence, or a redevelopment project within a well-connected Umbrian town.
