Residence for sale, Pergola RBV99952

This large natural stone detached house in a wonderfully quiet location with a beautiful panorama, has no less than 4 floors with a total surface of approximately 700 m² and a land of approximately 5000 m². In total there are 7 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

The foundation of the building, built on a rock, dates back to 1468 and served centuries ago as a church with underground caves, stables and outbuildings with beautiful vaults, which have been preserved. Subsequently, the building expanded over the centuries with several floors, and it was used, among other things, by the Duca of Urbino to spend the night during the hunting season, and as accommodation for his staff.

The house has been completely restored from 1990 when it was purchased by the current owners, while retaining original details. The indoor semi-covered terrace on the third floor is surprising. The style and finish of the house is tasteful, modern combined with original elements, such as the old beams and cotto floors, 80 cm outer walls, 60 cm thick inner walls, very spacious bedrooms, with a spectacular view from every window over the Marchegian hills to the Apennines. The park-like garden on 3 sides of the house is on different levels. There are several terraces, lovely shady spots under the trees, and an outbuilding that needs to be restored: the former bakery (forno) where the bread was once baked for the entire borgo in Fenigli, has a floor space of 50 m². Connection for gas, electricity and water is already present. Ideal to realize a guest house.

The location of the house can be called very quiet, although it is located directly on a small municipal road, where only a single car passes per day. It offers a lot of privacy and beautiful views, while it is only 5 minutes from the medieval town of Pergola, where you will find all amenities (supermarkets, shops with local products, restaurants where you can enjoy the Marchegian cuisine, banks, bars, pharmacies, etc.).
