Marche farmhouse villa with separate guest accommodation.
Nestled within the picturesque landscape of hills in front of the Sibilini Mountains, this meticulously renovated farmhouse villa offers a unique blend of tranquillity and panoramic beauty. Situated on an elevated hillside, accessible via a 600-metre driveway, this farmhouse exemplifies 19th-century architectural elegance from the Marche region. Its prime location affords uninterrupted views of the valley and spans over 1.6 hectares of land, featuring olive groves, woodlands, and meadows.
Convenient amenities are just a short 10-minute drive away in the nearby town, with the charming Servigliano town reachable within approximately 20 minutes. This area is renowned for its wine cellars and popular dining establishments. Furthermore, the Monti Sibilini National Park, offering a plethora of outdoor activities, is within a 30-minute drive, including the enchanting Bolognola plateau.
Despite its secluded ambience, this property maintains excellent connectivity. International travellers have easy access through three airports: Ancona (1 hour), Perugia (1 hour 30 minutes), and Rome (3 hours). The A14 motorway junction at Civitanova Marche is approximately 40 minutes away, and Civitanova itself provides comprehensive train connections, including the Frecciarossa, throughout Italy.
This farmhouse villa spans 278 square metres (2,991 square feet) and boasts three bedrooms and four bathrooms. It has been thoughtfully restored, featuring artisanal windows, exposed beams, and lime-plastered walls. High-quality furnishings and finishes with meticulous attention to detail grace every corner. Underfloor heating ensures an even temperature throughout without the intrusion of radiators. The interior design maintains a respectful nod to the original farmhouse, offering a functional and tasteful living space.
The main living areas are centred around a captivating gallery space with polished concrete floors and a custom-made window, currently housing a small art collection. Adjacent is a cosy living room with rustic wooden floors, a lime-plastered fireplace, and expansive arched windows, leading to a terrace adorned with ferns, roses, and wisteria. The dining room features a wood-burning stove crafted by a South Tyrol artisan, an open fireplace for barbecues, and a stone floor reclaimed from a 16th-century monastery. The fully-fitted kitchen opens onto a terrace shaded by a mulberry tree, ideal for al fresco dining. Upstairs, two spacious suites each offer unique charm, including a master bedroom, library, walk-in wardrobe, and bathroom, as well as a living room and two guest bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom. Polished concrete floors lend a minimalist aesthetic that complements the traditional structure.
The guest cottage, meticulously restored across two floors, offers 134 square meters (1,442 square feet), one bedroom, and one bathroom. Features include a poured concrete floor and underfloor heating. The cottage comprises a living room with a minimalist kitchenette and a spacious bedroom on the upper floor. The lower level houses a generous bathroom and a multifunctional room that opens onto a terrace adorned with two mulberry trees. Adjacent, the original wood-burning oven from the farmhouse adds character, and a wine storage cave is nearby.
The renovation in 2008 was carried out by local craftsmen under the supervision of a professional well-versed in the region’s history, architectural style, and values. Collaborating with the Zanon studio in Venice, known for their work with Carlo Scarpa, the most important Italian architect of the 20th century, resulted in a contemporary home seamlessly integrated into its surroundings.
Connecting the main house to the cottage is a spacious terrace featuring a 19×4-metre panoramic swimming pool lined with Luserna stone. The pool is equipped with an electrolysis filtration system and a heat pump for temperature control. A small herbaceous perennial garden borders the neighbouring field, and two fenced vegetable gardens are also available. The property includes ample parking with covered spaces, a firewood shelter, a tool shed, and a porch. Approximately 1.6 hectares (3.9 acres) of woods, olive groves, and meadows envelop the houses, with a path leading to a stream in the valley below.
This pastoral and charming setting is defined by serene tranquillity, offering unobstructed views to the South during the day and a serene, unpolluted night sky.
