Beautiful authentic farmhouse from the late 1800s, situated in a panoramic, very quiet position 15 minutes away from the medieval town of Cagli. This typical Marchegian Casale has been the home of a family for centuries, where generations have worked and enjoyed the beautiful seasons together amid the unspoilt nature of Le Marche. The original cotto floors, beamed ceilings and stone walls (pietra) with beautiful details, give a rustic feel. One of the strengths of this house is that there are 2 huge living rooms. Both floors have an independent entrance.
Layout ground floor: entrance through the portico*), living room with fireplace, kitchen with fireplace/BBQ, large living room with wood stove, storage room, bathroom, 3 bedrooms and hallway with access to the terrace/balcony from where one can enjoy the beautiful view over the hilly landscape and the view up to the still snow-covered peaks of the Apennines.
The ground floor is below ground level (the house is partly situated in a hill) layout: large living/dining room with wood stove, cantina, professionally equipped kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and 2 storerooms accessible from outside.
In the garden with flat lawn and several fruit trees, one finds complete privacy and tranquillity. There are a brick BBQ with lovely terrace, a fully fenced 10 x 5 x 1.50-metre pool (with Roman steps - the terrace around the pool needs some attention), and the pool house for storage of sunbeds etc.
The house is structurally sound, but needs aesthetic attention. With few interventions, it can be modernised as desired. Currently, the house is only used by the family in the month of August. The roof was fully insulated in 2005, there is single glazing, no central heating, but 2 fireplaces and 2 wood stoves.
Living area: 200 m², plot: 1000 m², position: 450/500 m altitude.
The property is accessible via a white road (perfectly passable). The surrounding area is characterised by rolling hills, woods, small rivers, medieval villages and towns, with the imposing Apennines in the background, where there are plenty of skiing opportunities in winter.
*) The closed roof of the portico should be removed before the sale. Alternatively, the buyer can opt for beautiful shade cloths, or a roof covering of, for example, reeds or natural vegetation (grape vines, wisteria, etc. )
