A Restored Agriturismo Estate in the Hills of Cagli

The estate comprises a traditional stone farmhouse and a separate annex, both dating back to the 18th century. The main building has been carefully restored, preserving original materials where and when possible, including wooden window frames, while integrating structural improvements and bio-building techniques.

The total surface is approximately 442 sq.m., currently organised into a private residence and an independent guest apartment, allowing the property to function both as a home and as an established agriturismo.

Ground Floor:
The ground floor is partly dedicated to shared and guest-oriented spaces. A large multi-purpose living room with fireplace creates a welcoming environment for relaxation and opens onto a spacious covered veranda, which offers open views across the surrounding hills, the swimming pool and the garden. In the evening, this space naturally becomes a place to unwind, overlooking the changing light of the landscape with a glass of local wine.
On this level, there is also an independent guest apartment, which includes a kitchen and living room, together with a spacious double bedroom and bathroom. The apartment benefits from its own private entrance.

First Floor:
The upper floor hosts the main private residence, where the layout opens into a spacious kitchen with central island and dining area, forming the core of the living space.

From here, the layout naturally unfolds into a separate dining room and continues into a generous living room, creating a sequence of interconnected spaces designed for everyday living and hosting.

In front of the kitchen and dining area, a passage leads to the sleeping quarters, where there is a bathroom with ante-bathroom.

To the left of the main living area, a second passageway opens onto a series of additional rooms: on one side, a bedroom currently used as a study, on the other a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. The apartment offers a  further multi-purpose room that can be adapted according to needs.

The former barn has been demolished and rebuilt, now accommodating 3 independent apartments arranged over two levels for a total of 168 sq.m.
Each unit features an open-plan living area with kitchen and dining space on the ground floor, and a bedroom on the upper level, together with a bathroom with a laundry area available for guests.

Each apartment benefits from its own outdoor area, including a private veranda and access to the shared garden.

The property was restored between 2008 and 2010 with particular attention to structural quality and sustainability. The works included anti-seismic improvements, ventilated foundations and a fully insulated roof.
The annex was rebuilt using bio-building techniques and is equipped with a pellet heating system and solar thermal panels. The property does not use gas.
Wooden window frames have been preserved, and the estate is served by two separate electrical lines, supporting both private use and hospitality operations.

The estate extends over approximately 27 hectares, where cultivated fields, woodland and open clearings create a landscape that feels both expansive and deeply private. The land unfolds gently around the property, offering a natural sense of continuity and space that is increasingly rare to find.

Fields of wheat and sunflowers alternate with fruit trees and shaded paths, inviting slow walks through the estate and a direct connection with the surrounding nature. From various points of the property, the views open onto the rolling hills and distant Apennine peaks, creating a setting that changes throughout the day and across the seasons.

Within the estate there is also the basin of a former lake, which could potentially be restored, adding a further layer to the landscape and its long-term potential.

The swimming pool, measuring 12 x 6 metres and built in 2010, is positioned to fully benefit from the open views and is equipped with a solar shower. Around it, the outdoor spaces are designed for both relaxation and shared moments, including a bocce court, an archery area and a barbecue.

An olive grove, together with natural paths that cross the land, completes a setting that is not only visually compelling but also offers a tangible sense of use and experience, making the estate equally suited for private enjoyment and hospitality.

The estate is located near Cagli, between Urbino and Gubbio, in a part of the Marche region where natural landscapes and historic heritage coexist in a setting that remains authentic and relatively unspoilt. From the property, the views extend across the surrounding Apennine peaks, including Monte Nerone, Monte Petrano, Monte Catria and Monte Acuto, shaping a landscape of wide horizons and changing light throughout the year.

The area offers access to a network of historic towns and cultural destinations. Urbino, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and Gubbio are both within comfortable reach, while the nearby Gola della Rossa and Frasassi is home to one of Italy’s most remarkable cave systems. Not far from the property, the Abbey of Fonte Avellana, set at the foot of Monte Catria and surrounded by woodland, adds a further layer of historical and cultural depth to the area.

Throughout the year, the Marche region offers a varied cultural calendar that follows the rhythm of the seasons. In summer, Pesaro becomes an international reference point for music with the Rossini Opera Festival, while the nearby coastal town of Fano, known for its historic Carnival of the Adriatic, also hosts theatre and musical performances, creating a lively atmosphere that complements the quieter countryside setting.

This balance between nature, culture and seasonal events makes the area appealing in every period of the year, offering different ways to experience the landscape depending on the season.
The region is also strongly connected to its agricultural and culinary traditions, with local products such as truffles, olive oil, cheeses and wines forming an integral part of everyday life.
Despite its sense of seclusion, the property remains accessible and well positioned for exploring central Italy. Access is via approximately 5 km of unpaved road, a feature that contributes to its privacy and distance from more frequented areas.
