Stylish renovated house in a medieval castle

This 12th-century castle offers a rare opportunity for those interested in historic properties with an authentic feel. With a living area of approx. 70 square metres (753,47 ft²) spread over three floors, modern comforts blend with historic features. The ground floor comprises a functional kitchen fitted with an electric hob, fridge and sink. Adjacent to this is a lounge with an open fireplace and views of the inner courtyard. The interiors are characterised by exposed beams and terracotta floors, which enhance its medieval character. The first floor features a bedroom and a fully fitted bathroom with a shower. On the second floor, there is a second room (bedroom, living room, study) and a roof terrace measuring just over 3.5 square metres (37,67 ft²), where you can wake up slowly with a cappuccino whilst enjoying the view. The property is offered fully furnished, with the exception of a few personal items. There is a modern electric heating system, and water is supplied from various on-site sources. Thanks to a meticulous restoration process, the castle has acquired considerable historical value. This was recognised by the first national award from the Conservation Foundation of London – made possible by Ford, CNR, Enea and Rusconi – for architectural conservation. Since then, the property has been listed as part of Italy’s Cultural Heritage. The spacious inner courtyard serves as a central meeting point, where a deconsecrated chapel has also been set up for cultural activities such as conferences and concerts. Other facilities include a communal lounge with Wi-Fi, a laundry room and a traditional wood-fired pizza oven. Residents have unlimited access to the swimming pool with an outdoor shower, a playground and a bocce court. Parking is available on the property, accessed via an electric gate. The community comprises 23 residential units with international owners. A permanent caretaker provides support services, contributing to the sense of community and the continuity of management. The complex is surrounded by approximately 45 hectares of olive groves and natural countryside. Let yourself be charmed by the relaxed atmosphere of the inner courtyard, the cosy cobbled streets that surround it and the stunning natural surroundings. And you haven’t even seen the complex lit up at night yet. The property is perfect as a holiday home and/or investment, not least thanks to the attractive return on investment (ROI) should you wish to let it out. It is, without a shadow of a doubt, well worth a visit!
