A unique combination of authentic Italian character, modern comfort and absolute tranquillity in a prime location just 10 minutes from the Adriatic coast (Senigallia) – this is the best way to describethis fully restored ‘Casa Colonica’ with guest studio and swimming pool. This beautiful former Marche farmstead used to have stables on the ground floor: these have been converted into comfortable living space. During the thorough and meticulous restoration carried out between 2002 and 2004, care was taken to preserve certain original features in order to maintain the building’s authenticity (such as the beautiful ceilings with their original beams), and materials of the very highest quality were used. In 2024, both the interior spaces on the ground floor and the exterior of the building were re-plastered and repainted. The property comprises a very spacious main house (approx. 280 m²) and a self-contained studio (approx. 45 m²), ideal for hosting family and friends or for holiday lettings. The current owners have been letting this studio (suitable for 2 people) very successfully for many years, receiving very positive reviews and welcoming returning guests. Layout of the main house: an entrance hall leads into an open-plan space where the kitchen is located. Two doorways lead to the living room with a fireplace and wood-burning stove. There are also two external doors leading to the terraces (one large terrace at the rear, covered with bamboo mats, and one smaller side terrace). In the spacious, luxurious kitchen, there is a space under the stairs that serves as a kitchen storage area, and a separate toilet with a urinal and washbasin. The utility room contains several storage racks, the washing machine and the central heating and hot water systems. A wide central staircase, which also leads to the ‘official front door’, takes you up to the first floor, where there are three bedrooms, a walk-in wardrobe, and two luxurious bathrooms, one of which is en suite with a shower and bath. In addition, there is a spacious, high-ceilinged central room with a beautiful tiled floor that could be used as a TV room or study, or where a fourth bedroom could even be created. All rooms on the first floor feature exposed roof beams interspersed with traditional terracotta ceiling tiles (pianelle). On the ground floor, near the central staircase, there is a lockable internal door leading to the adjoining studio. Layout: entrance hall with external door, bathroom, fitted wardrobe, a large living area with two box-spring beds, a dining area and an open-plan kitchen. The flat includes a private terrace at the rear of the house, situated beneath the attractive, spacious portico. On the other side of the studio are two storage cupboards and the garage/shed, accessible from the outside via double doors. The plot of approx. 4,000 m² is fully fenced and accessible via a tarmac country lane with very little traffic. You enter the grounds through a remote-controlled access gate, into an oasis of peace and privacy (neighbours are approximately 300 metres away). The mature planting in the meticulously landscaped garden includes plane trees, cypresses, oleanders in a variety of colours, lavender and various types of roses and palms, creating a Mediterranean atmosphere. The grounds are perfectly maintained and fitted with an irrigation system. At the front of the house, a lovely courtyard has been created with plane trees that provide welcome shade on hot summer days. The garden also features another, smaller terrace, ensuring that there is always a terrace in the sun or in the shade at any time of day. The swimming pool (6 x 12 m, depth up to 2.20 m) was built by Desjoyaux Pools and features an innovative, low-maintenance filtration system without underground pipework. This makes the system sustainable, reliable and energy-efficient. Next to the swimming pool is a spacious terrace with a large sunshade. The property is excellently equipped with modern amenities: Central heating + air conditioning (heating/cooling) Wood-burning stove on the ground floor Double-glazed Niango hardwood window frames with insect screens All windows and external doors are fitted with Louvre shutters, also made of Niango hardwood, repainted in 2023 Internal alarm system Gas tank (1,600 litres) Roof insulation (4 cm polystyrene) Wooden beams treated against woodworm Energy efficiency class E Subject to agreement, the entire contents of this unique property can be taken over (with the exception of a few personal belongings).

Sea views and open skies The corner position on the northern edge of the village, at 670m above sea level, gives Casa Pino an open outlook that most properties in the historic centre cannot match. The upper-floor terraces and wraparound balconies look out across the Gulf of Termini Imerese, with direct views towards the coast. The bedrooms catch the morning sun, and the ground-floor rooms are bright and welcoming thanks to the dual aspect. Cefalù’s beaches and Norman old town are a short drive to the north, and Palermo’s international airport is about an hour away. No need to spend but potential to invest With dual street access and a flexible layout, the property could accommodate four bedrooms, or be divided into separate units for combined personal and rental use. The lower level already functions as a self-contained space with its own kitchen, shower and entrance. There is no need for immediate investment, with the place absolutely habitable. Down the line the buyer might want to consider adding a smoother finish to the rough exterior rendering, updating some windows and investing in roof insulation. However, this is a turnkey home with space, views and character that would cost several times more in a coastal town or larger city. For anyone searching for a well-priced, substantial ’s Madonie Park, Casa Pino sets a high bar. For a full description of the property please visit our website Want to know more?
