Beautiful farmhouse in Macerata Feltria for sale
Beautiful farmhouse has been recently restored with great taste nestled in the hinterland of Urbino – northern Marche, in a small hamlet of just 3 houses, a few kilometers from Macerata Feltria
According to the rural architectural tradition of Le Marche, the current owners, together with the architect, have decided to preserve the style.
Via a private road you get to the little hamlet square, now a common yard, where guests and occasional visitors can park their vehicles. The land attached to the property is fully fenced and enjoys an electric gate, both for vehicles and pedestrians, for private owners access.
The farmhouse (about 290 sq.m.), as clearly visible from the facade and construction system, consists of a central body dating back to the 1600s, while the two lateral wings have been added over the next century.
These areas have been well-connected, thanks to the clever renovation made by the current owners, which have created a harmonious path, connecting the various levels on the ground floor, where the entire living area is built.

From the main entrance facing the yard, you access a hall, giving access to different areas of the house: on the left a door will lead you to the spacious and traditional living room. Plenty of light is guaranteed, thanks to the two large french windows. The large central fireplace was expertly restored with a minimal taste but always respecting the tradition of Le Marche rural architecture.
From the living room, through a hallway, you access the kitchen to the right and the large dining room to the left. Stepping up on the right, you will immediately notice the large, custom-made, fully-equipped kitchen with all the next generation appliances. In this room there is space for a small table for a frugal lunch or dinner.
From the kitchen, you have direct exit out to the back garden.Walking back to the entrance hall, on the right, a sliding door will lead you to a laundry room and storage, useful to keep all you need to clean the house.
Still on the left, you can see a staircase leading to the upper floor, with a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, excellent for your guests.
Going further, you step down two steps and you get to the large dining room where you can place 2 round tables for a total of 12 diners.
In this environment you will notice immediately a stunning Stube wood stove that is lit only in the coldest winter periods to support the radiators, whose system is powered by a solar gpl boiler.
Basically, for the every day heating you can use the gpl heating system, while during the coldest days or for particularly cold days off season, you can turn on the wood stove. In the summer, the solar panels warm up the water and sanitary system.
A peculiarity, unlikely to be found in other farmhouses, is the beautiful glazed veranda. You can reach this room stepping down from the dining room and you’ll immediately feel one with the garden and the nature surrounding the property. In addition to being a spacious, bright and airy space, easy to use both in the summer and in the winter, this area is also provided with a bathroom, which is accessed via a beautiful antique door. From the veranda you have a beautiful 180 deg. degree view across the valley.
From the living room, you step up a staircase leading to the first floor where the entire sleeping area develops. At the end of the stairs you will reach a small mezzanine, from here you access 3 bedrooms, all with private bathroom.This floor is characterised by a natural oak flooring in all rooms and in the access hallway, while bathrooms have been made with ceramic tiles, with small square tiles, recalling traditional materials. The roof plays the role of a kind of big, beautiful frame, thanks to its wood beams and exposed terracotta tiles, all of them recovered from the original structure.
In addition to the common yard, the property enjoys an exclusive garden of approximately 2.336 sq.m., accessible, as mentioned above, from the gates. From here, you can reach the kitchen and a technical room.
On a higher level, where you can find an additional tool storage, you could build a lovely infinity pool, thanks to the plain ground and the beautiful views.The exclusive garden extends out to the veranda and is characterised by small natural terraces. In the first terrace, there is a small building (about 15 sq.m.), separate from the main home, used as a storage.
On lower levels there are other terraces where an olive grove with 50 trees was planted for the production of olive oil for personal consumption.
The location of the house is quiet but not isolated: it is perfect for families with kids, who’d like to live in a nice environment, with a few neighbours but still very close to nature. As a matter of facts, all around the house there are only valleys, so you are surrounded by peace and the beautiful colours of the marchigiano hills.
