    Marco, these are beautiful homes, but I wonder if you could ever do a series on smaller dwellings,2-3 stanzas for singles? Probably a challenge in family oriented Italy, but I’d love to see those houses if you can find them! Grazie! 🙏🥰

    I do wonder why not a peak of a walk around the grounds and why not film into all rooms 🤔 I found myself saying "noooo" after you showed us the amazing frescoed ceiling but not the arched nook area to the left.
    That said, I do so enjoy your content and the fact that you also include info and other locations about the town. Bellissimo 👏🏼

    The town by the lake is gorgeous. And the first townhouse in the heart of it is very nice indeed, with an unusual internal layout due to that fascinating staircase, and it’s great value for money too.
    The second property in the countryside however, not so great. Much of the inside looks barren and depressing, and despite being mostly renovated apparently, still needs much more work to make it feel homely. Sorry, but I just didn’t like that one.
    But Umbria as a whole, is one of my favorite parts of Italy. Tuscan beauty for a more affordable price, and that more famous (and expensive!) region is right next door anyway 🙂
