History

Le Logge stands on foundations that trace back nearly a millennium, shaped by the layered lives of watchmen, captains, farmers, and families who once guarded and cultivated this hillside. The oldest structure on the property is The Tower House, originally an XI-century watchtower that anchored the defensive line of the valley. Over the centuries, the estate expanded around it, evolving into a fortified countryside residence.

By the XV century, the house took on its distinctive architectural character. The open loggia, with its octagonal stone pillars, dates from this period and remains one of the estate’s most treasured features — a vantage point for sunsets that have been witnessed here for over 500 years.

Other spaces reveal their own stories:

The Baltimora, once the horse stable of the Captain of the Garrison, still carries the warmth of its thick stone walls and vaulted ceilings.

Ulysse’s House, with its independent entrances from the village and the garden, reflects the estate’s evolution into a lived-in countryside villa with a lower‑level “bar” room that once housed the ancient town’s workshop for its cobbler.

The surrounding terraces, pathways, and gardens echo the rhythms of Umbrian agricultural life.

Today, the estate preserves this layered history while offering a quiet, elegant retreat — a place where medieval stonework, Renaissance architecture, and contemporary comfort coexist seamlessly.
