Welcome to this enchanting 5-bedroom country house located in the scenic hills of Montelparo, situated in the Fermo region of beautiful Le Marche, Italy. Originally a medieval monastery, this property paints a picturesque portrait of Italy's rich and colorful past. Just a brief 30-minute drive from the pristine Adriatic Sea, this is a home brimming with character, history, and potential.
Let's take a walk through this grand home which spans a generous area of 518 square meters. Here, you can find five spacious bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom - one that even features its own kitchen/diner and an exclusive entrance. This layout offers endless possibilities, may it be for a family home, a guest house, or a potential bed and breakfast business.
The residence was last upgraded in 2012, and is now equipped with modern conveniences that allow for a comfortable residence all year round, without compromising its historic charm. Every corner of this house speaks of history: from the local golden Montelparo stone that clads the walls to the chestnut-made doors, beams, and window frames.
Intriguingly, this home retains much of its 12th-century character, from the wine-making quarters of Farfensi monks fleeing Rome during Saracen attacks, to the grotto that stands as a reminder of the glorious past. There's a unique blend of authenticity and comfort here, exuding a harmony rarely seen in restored historic buildings.
