The house is very private, but not isolated, as it is only 10 minutes into the large town of Marsciano (with railway station), and 5km to the E45 and only 15 minutes into the large town of Todi .
Villa Marsciano fully restored the main house in 2001 and created additional accommodation. The restoration was done to a very high standard. The roof was replaced and fully insulated, the house completely rewired to the required legal specifications. The central heating and most of the plumbing was renewed.
Four new bathrooms were created, and now the house has five large ensuite bedrooms (average of 24 sq metres): two of the bathrooms also have bath tubs. There are two living rooms, the grand sala (55 sq metres),and the small sala (which can also be a 6th bedroom (18 sq metres)

There are central heating radiators in every room throughout the house. The Grand Sala and Small Sala also have wood burning stoves.
The owners have a Comune licence to run the house and apartment as a rental business. They currently rent the property all year round.
