In the beautiful Loretello Castle in Arcevia, AN, this prestigious 238 m² property is for sale, elegantly renovated with respect for the architectural features of the old medieval village/castle. Loretello, the oldest castle in the municipality of Arcevia, dates back to 1072 and consists of 18 privately owned buildings. Situated on a 300-meter-high hill, it enjoys a particularly pleasant climate thanks to the light to moderate winds in the summer months and offers enchanting views over the Marche countryside. The castle was built in 1070 by the monks of Fonte Avellana, and its current appearance is the result of subsequent extensions in the 14th and 15th centuries. The castle, no longer used as a military fortress, was equipped with a three-arched access bridge in 1700, replacing the old drawbridge. On the sides are two towers: the "Watchtower," which served as a watchtower, and the "Prison Tower," a six-story building with narrow loopholes and Ghibelline battlements, which was once a private residence. The walls, fortifications, and access bridge are still intact and have withstood the test of time. They are the finest testament to a village that has retained its unique charm and dreamy setting.

The property for sale comprises three floors: the mezzanine: a large open-plan living area with a kitchen and windows overlooking the square and the old castle gate, a bedroom/study, and a bathroom. The first floor: an elegant white iron staircase leads to the open-plan living area and the first floor, where a spacious living room with seven windows is bathed in light and offers a picturesque panoramic view of the valley surrounding the castle. There are also two double bedrooms and a large bathroom. The basement and ground floor: a large tavern overlooking the village square, a bathroom, a hallway, and a storage room. The property was completely renovated in 2016 and features exposed brickwork, wooden beamed ceilings, double glazing, and individual radiator heating.
