Luxury Boutique Hotel in Umbria for Sale | Restored Benedictine Abbey

This restored Benedictine abbey for sale in Umbria is located in the hills near Pietralunga, in a private panoramic setting at around 600 metres above sea level. The property operates as a luxury boutique hotel and hospitality business with 18 guest bedrooms, restaurant facilities, event spaces, landscaped gardens, a heated swimming pool and additional owner or guest accommodation. The estate combines historic architecture with hospitality infrastructure, making it suitable for continued use as a boutique hotel, wedding venue, wellness retreat or exclusive private estate in central Italy.

The medieval monastery has been carefully restored while preserving original architectural details, including stone walls, terracotta floors, vaulted ceilings, wooden beams, fireplaces, brick arches and 16th-century frescoes. The central Romanesque church, originally built in the 13th century by Benedictine monks, has been converted into an event and conference hall with a bar area created from the former sacristy. This provides flexible commercial use for weddings, private events, retreats and corporate hospitality.

The main abbey building includes guest accommodation arranged across several independent apartments and en-suite rooms. The ground floor contains the restaurant and breakfast room, a professional kitchen and guest suites. The upper floors include five self-contained apartments with living areas and kitchenettes, as well as additional en-suite guest rooms accessible via internal and external staircases. The layout works well for hospitality use, extended stays and group bookings.

A separate country house near the abbey provides further accommodation, including the owner’s apartment, reception area, a large suite and additional en-suite bedrooms. The property currently offers 18 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms, providing flexibility for hotel operations, retreat accommodation, or private use.

The restored monastery was renovated in 2008 and benefits from modern utilities, including an internet connection, a private well water supply, and LPG and radiator heating systems. The estate includes approximately 3.4 hectares (8.4 acres) of land with established gardens, woodland and a large gravel parking area for guests. The landscaped grounds include mature trees, lawns, walking paths and a heated 16 × 7 metre swimming pool with a stone-paved sun terrace.

The property is within driving distance of many of the best-known destinations in Umbria and Tuscany, including Perugia, Assisi, Gubbio, Cortona and Florence. International travel is available via Perugia San Francesco d’Assisi Airport and airports in Florence, Rome, Bologna, and Pisa.
