Venarotta

A stunning classic Italian house on the edge of a thriving village set in 10 acres of rolling countryside in the foothills of the mountains.

Being only 9 kilometres from Ascoli Piceno, the jewel in Marches’ crown, it is within easy reach of Italian culture and only a 35 minute drive from the bustle of the beautiful beaches of the Adriatico. The Sibilini mountains sit behind the house and in front are the panoramic views of the spectacular Gran Sasso range.

The house offers total privacy – but at the end of the drive is one of the best restaurants of the Piceno area and a working village with all the traditional amenities (easy walking distance).

The flat terraced land encircling the house is perfect for outside living with many different seating areas, hammocks and swing seats offering spectacular views. There is also an olive grove, a wooded area and rolling grass fields. There are many fruit trees yielding cherries, figs, apples, pears and nuts in season plus a small vegetable plot and herb garden.

The pool has a state of the art cover which rolls on and off easily so providing solar heated water and swimming under cover if preferred. The pool is one depth throughout and therefore excellent for team games such as water volleyball. There is outdoor lighting both in the pool, along the drive and around the entire terracing – making the property great for evening entertaining.
The hard tennis court is completely fenced.
