Description
A splendid renovated Borgo located at 360 metres above sea level, surrounded by the beautiful fields and woods of the Marche countryside.
The Borgo is composed of 4 buildings located around a central square and boasts a splendid swimming pool (14x7m) in a panoramic position with sunbathing area, pool house and toilets. In front of the former chapel is a car park for 20 cars with a partially shaded area. The buildings date back to the 15th and 16th centuries: they consist of stone buildings, terracotta floors, wood-beamed ceilings, exposed stone walls, fireplaces, and frescoes. From 2004 to 2006, the Borgo was carefully renovated both internally and externally, including all the roofs, while maintaining its original characteristics. Apartments of various sizes created in the two main buildings (Villa and Frantoio) have been equipped with all modern comforts. These flats, if requested, can easily be joined into larger residences.
The Borgo has been fully documented in the land register: 1400 square metres and 3 hectares of land. The property is surrounded by 3 hectares (7.41 acres) of land, of which 1 hectare is agricultural and 2 hectares garden consisting of meadows, woods and ancient olive trees that produce approx. 50 litres of oil per year. The Borgo is currently used as a country house for tourists, with 13 flats of different sizes and the owner's house.
Potential uses could be a shared family resort, yoga retreat or other.
