The building
The church is not an ancient one but of the 1900's. It has been abandoned years ago and was left sitting while the woods quietly took possession. Though currently plastered both the building as well as the bell tower are made of stone. The building is in a reasonably good condition. The house behind it was modified throughout the decades to adapt to changing needs. The main part is old and built in stone but parts in concrete have been added on in more recent times. The ground floor still showcases some old stables with traditional ceilings. Most of the first floor roof has come down. It is not unlikely that a demolition of the part behind the church is the most feasible solution.

For all the renovation and construction work we have our crews available. As is part of the Renovating in Umbria group we can easily obtain estimates and other information that make a purchase a safe endeavour.
