In a magnificent panoramic position with open and unspoilt views over the countryside of Marche, you can find an old stone farmhouse fully restored with swimming pool, annex, garden and panoramic terrace.
This late 17th Century stone farmhouse has been thoroughly and thoughtfully restored both inside and outside. Access is easy and comfortable, the house and garden are very cosy and designed to completely enjoy the views.
The House
The house is spread over three floors with small characteristic internal differences in height, for a total area of 225 sq.m.
Ground Floor:
On the ground floor, entrance is directly into the living areas, composed of a double sitting room, dining room, kitchen with pantry – and a guest bathroom. On this same floor, with external and also internal access, there’s a large room, that may be used as a ground floor bedroom.
First Floor:
accessible via an internal and also from an external staircase, you land onto a hallway / sitting room connected to the large and fully equipped kitchen with fireplace. This floor enjoys a lovely master bedroom with en-suite bathroom; on the opposite wing, there are two more large double bedrooms, which share a large bathroom with free-standing bathtub. Thanks to the stones and wooden beams, as well as to the selection of furniture, all bedrooms have a romantic and warm aura.
Second Floor:
Stepping up you land onto a hallway and, to the opposite sides, there are 2 small and characteristic bedrooms.
The farmhouse was presumably built in the 17th century, restored during the 1990s and always maintained and upgraded over the last decade.
All the recovered ancient materials used throughout the house, as stones, bricks, terracotta tiles and wooden beams, give character and a cosy, welcoming atmosphere to the property.
The house is connected to electricity; water supply is through a well; drainage is via an Imhoff tank. Heating goes with LPG gas and Pellet stove. Wi-fi network connected.
The Annex
The property goes with an underground building of about 76 sq.m., which is extremely useful both as a garage and as a storage for gardening tools and for the pool equipment. The best part is that its top is flat, thus creating an amazing terrace close to the pool with breathtaking views over the Marche rolling hills.
The Garden
The house is surrounded by a 3,240 sq.m. mature garden and there are several areas that you can enjoy during the different times of the day. Close to the door that connects to the first floor, there’s a small terrace, particularly nice if you want to have breakfast early in the morning, when the sunrays are warm and gentle.
To the opposite side, where the garden develops, there is the 27 sq.m. swimming pool with garden and panoramic terrace. This is the perfect spot for a pool party in the afternoon or to enjoy an aperitif in the early evening, as the sun goes down.
A small wooden shed is precious to keep pool inflatables or some additional equipment that you use daily.
The Location
This lovely property in Marche, which is just a few minutes from the small town of Colmurano (shops, bars, restaurants, groceries), can be easily reached along a very convenient paved but not busy municipal road. Only the last part (about 400 mt) is graveled and always well maintained. Indeed, you may enjoy a nice 20min walk to town, if you like. The area is extremely quiet but not isolated.
The property is between 10 and 20 minutes away from some of the nicest towns and villages in Marche: San Ginesio, Tolentino, Loro Piceno, Urbisaglia, just to quote a few. The airport of Ancona-Falconara is about one hour away.

Thanks to its central position between the sea and the mountains, Colmurano attracts quite a few tourists.
Colmurano is a charming village in the province of Macerata, surrounded by unspoilt nature, so this is the home for you, if you are looking for calm and serenity, in the peacefulness of your hearth.
