Apecchio

In the high area of the town of Apecchio, on the hills of Marche, a few kilometers from the sea, two renovated farmhouses with land for sale. The two main houses, according to the findings found during the renovation carried out in the early 2000s, seem to date back to the 17th and 18th centuries respectively. According to the plan, they were intended to serve as a hospitality structure for the creation of a real thermal center dedicated to health and body care.

The renovation of the buildings was carried out with particular attention, in such a way as not to modify their characteristics, using high-quality materials that allowed both the enhancement of the already characteristic and well-built main structures, and the possibility of exploiting them at a tourist level, which also takes into account the necessary practical needs of a hospitality activity. 

Thus, in the lower parts, common areas have been prepared that can be used as meeting rooms, tasting rooms, and reception, while on the upper floors, accessible by already installed elevators, rooms with bathrooms and small suites have been created, completing the hospitality facilities.

Both farmhouses have several common rooms available, located on the ground floor. The structures are already equipped with all the sanitary ware for the bathrooms (yet to be installed) and the systems are all ready to be connected.

Perched on a rocky spur on the border between Marche and Umbria, in an extremely panoramic position, medieval castle for sale. The property, finely renovated in recent times, is ideal for those looking for a building to be used as a boutique hotel or luxury private home, thanks to the presence of 8 spacious bedrooms and a beautiful wellness center.

The castle is located in a very quiet location but close to basic services: the town of Acqualagna is in fact about 10’ drive from the property, while Cagli is a little further away (13 km). The location of the property is very convenient for visiting both Marche and Umbria, and the coastline is less than an hour’s drive away.

HISTORY OF THE CASTLE

The castle, according to some recent studies, is supposed to date back to the 6th century AD and became an important bastion of the Siccardi family as early as the 11th century. In fact, the fort stands on a rise overlooking the Candigliano River valley and guards the road that in ancient times was the only communication artery through Massa Trabaria. In the first half of the 13th century the Siccardi were forced to subjugate the castle to the neighboring municipality, but the alliance was short-lived and several clashes ensued until Filippa Siccardi, despite strenuous resistance, was forced to hand the castle back to the municipality.

In 1388 the castle was in the hands of the Mastini family, of noble ancestry and always linked to the Germanic emperors. The next two hundred years are poor in detail and little is known about the castle until the second half of the 17th century when the castle was reported to be owned by the Berardi family. 

In the hills between Marche and Umbria, along a small stream, resort with wellness center for sale.
