Set amidst the gentle rolling hills of Montefeltro, just ten kilometres from the UNESCO World Heritage city of Urbino, this charming tower is a residence unlike any other. Here, history and imagination meet, creating a home that is both timeless and contemporary. Within its walls lie five bedrooms and four bathrooms, offering not only comfort but a sense of living within a work of art. The House This 378 sq.m. property unites a 15th-century tower with a 19th-century farmhouse, brought together in perfect harmony. In 1976, the renowned architect Giancarlo De Carlo reimagined these structures, weaving modernity into tradition with grace and vision. Vast windows frame the ever-changing light, generous interiors unfold across subtle levels, and spaces are animated by striking architectural lines. Recognised by the Italian Ministry of Culture as a building of artistic importance, the house bears the signature of a master. On the ground floor, the living spaces unfold with a spacious kitchen, an impressive main hall with fireplace, a study, and a guest bathroom. Additionally, you’ll find a tower room that opens to the garden, an independent guest apartment, a cellar, a utility room, and a graceful portico of about 30 sq.m.—perfect for moments of stillness and shade. In 2014, the property was lovingly restored once again, blending heritage with modern comfort. A new insulated roof, handcrafted wooden doors and windows, and an efficient heating system were added, ensuring the home remains both authentic and welcoming. The Land The estate extends over three hectares of gardens, woodland and orchards. Nature here is protected: the land is surrounded by organic cultivation and preserved by a ban on hunting. The views sweep unbroken across the hills, while at night the skies open in their purest form, undimmed by light pollution, revealing the stars in their silent splendour. The Location Though secluded, the house is never isolated. In just ten minutes you can reach the nearest supermarket, and within fifteen minutes the heart of Urbino with its rich life of schools, university, hospital, shops and cafés. The Adriatic coast at Pesaro lies 46 km away, Rimini Airport 56 km, Ancona 90 km, Arezzo 100 km, Florence 174 km, and Rome 277 km. From this peaceful retreat, the world remains within reach.
