The Villa della Sofora is a prestigious building constructed in the early 1900s following the classic architectural plan with a square layout on two floors topped by an attic. Adjacent to the main body of the building, at the rear of the property, there is an extension building with a rectangular layout arranged over two floors. The main square-shaped structure of the building has undergone a restoration and internal consolidation. The facade of the building has been restored to its original appearance, preserving all the details. The ground floor houses a hall, a study, and a small tavern. On the first floor, there are four bedrooms. The second floor consists of an attic divided into four rooms, with sufficient height to potentially be used as an attic space. The rear rectangular building has undergone partial restoration for foundation, roof, and external walls consolidation. The contiguity of the main body of the building with the annex allows for the possibility of interior expansion without altering the external appearance of the entire complex. The total surface area of the floors in the two building sections is approximately 400 square meters. The garden area of Villa della Sofora is characterized by the presence of numerous tall trees, including two Japanese Pagoda trees (Sophora japonica), one of which has reached impressive dimensions and beauty. Villa della Sofora is situated at the top of a group of hills that separate Lake Montepulciano from Lake Chiusi, about 1 km from the town center of a village belonging to the municipality of Castiglione del Lago, located near the Umbria-Tuscany border, represented by the municipalities of Chiusi, Chianciano Terme, and Montepulciano. The Chiusi railway station is less than 10 km away, as is the A1 motorway exit. Castiglione del Lago and Lake Trasimeno are approximately 12 km away. The area where Villa della Sofora is located is known for its tradition of lake fish cuisine, passed down through generations. It includes dishes like Tegamaccio and Brustico, with the latter having Etruscan origins. The original form of Brustico can be savored only in these areas. Starting from Villa della Sofora and heading west, you can access the ”Della Grande Bonifica“ cycle and pedestrian path. The section connecting Lake Chiusi to Lake Montepulciano is a paradise for slow walkers, birdwatchers, and cycling and horseback riding enthusiasts.
