In the picturesque village of Torre Alfina, a jewel nestled in the province of Viterbo, stands a monument of incomparable beauty and history: a medieval castle spanning 5000 sqm of interiors (53819 sqft) spread over 5 levels, and 1000 sqm (10,764 sqft) of lush private garden. This majestic castle boasts a history that traces its roots back to the early Middle Ages and extends up to the 20th century, reflecting the evolving architectural trends and socio-historical changes it has undergone. Originally a high medieval fortification of the Monaldeschi della Cervara family erected in the 8th century, it underwent significant transformations under Sforza Monaldeschi during the Renaissance. Its most radical metamorphosis occurred in 1880, when it was acquired by Count Edoardo Cahen d'Anvers, who commissioned architect Giuseppe Partini and gardeners Henri and Achille Duchêne to redesign the castle in a renewed medieval style. This wonderful property offers 35 rooms. The ground floor of the castle features an imposing gallery adorned with frescoed walls, vaulted ceilings with inlaid wood, statues, and marble floors. Here, through large windows with full arch frames, one can enjoy an expansive view of the village below and the green Lazio countryside. The upper floor, the piano nobile, consists of a spacious and scenic gallery, more than 10 rooms, a dining room, several reception rooms, and a library with wooden floors. The second floor houses the attic spaces, almost entirely made up of a sleeping area with several bedrooms, along with spaces that include attic rooms, closets, and storage rooms. The interiors of the five towers house beautiful rooms with panoramic views. The Renaissance garden, with its panoramic view, is a true oasis. The fountain with its water features and the geometric designs of the flower beds and hedges create a landscape where nature and art blend in perfect harmony. This fortress represents a unique experience immersed in a rich and fascinating history, a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

Dazzlingly gorgeous and rare city mansion – The Little Palace! Built in 1898, built in 1898 and completely renovated and restored between 2004–2005 and 2019–2020, lovingly cared for and maintained and equipped with modern building technology, this beautiful Little Palace, located in a quiet, but at the same time central to the city's services, is an object that rarely is for sale! The Little Palace is in the center of Tampere at the corner of Hämeenpuisto and Puuvillatehtaankatu. Finlayson's historic factory area, which is currently in office and business use, is located approx. 400 m away. This architecturally and culturally-historically valuable building is perfectly suited for residential use, but also works brilliantly as a high-quality commercial space for parties and gatherings. Originally, the building was completely used for residential purposes, e.g. resided by Finlayson's property manager, but has also served as an office between 1982 and 2001. After extensive renovations between 2004 and 2006, the middle and basement floors of the building have been used for festivities and other events. The top floor has mainly been in private use and lately as an art and antique exhibition space. The three different floors of the facade of this historic neo-renaissance building are the result of the detailed renovation work carried out in 2019-2020, which is literally a breathtaking sight in the city center. Especially when the dusk of the evening descends, when well-designed outdoor lighting brings wonderfully out even the smallest details. The property is surrounded by a handmade wrought iron fence to ensure privacy, and in the summer, beautiful rose plantings and perennials grow in the yard. The courtyard is crowned by a magnificent fountain, next to which several couples who celebrated their weddings in the palace have had their official wedding pictures taken. In the courtyard there is also a three-car garage/storage building completed in 2005. The interior, which exudes luxury and dignity, makes any visitor smile when looking at all the beauty that can be found in the building; as a representative space, the solemn high main hall of the excellently functioning middle floor and glowing brilliance of the crystal chandeliers, the grand piano hall representing the atmosphere of a medieval knight's castle and its coffered ceiling panels, as well as wooden and decorated door frames, curtains with rods designed by the architect and wonderful wallpapers that exude the spirit of the building's era. The visitor's attention is also captured by the palatial balconies with columns, wrought-iron staircase railings with delictae patterns, ceiling paintings and an authentic fresco in the stairwell, magnificent fireplaces, the unique identity, and style of each room on the timeless stylish top floor, as well as the kitchen and bathroom facilities that brilliantly serve the family's everyday life. Also not to be overlooked is the astonishingly wonderful art mosaic work by Tuula Lehtinen in the swimming pool section of the basement floor and the English-style billiard room, which exudes the building's original 19th-century atmosphere, with its wonderful, vaulted ceilings and original fireplaces and wall paneling. If this dazzling property attracts you to get to know it more closely, please contact the broker for additional information and to arrange for a private viewing.

A vast and luminous 19th-century house, its grounds and beautiful valley views in the Lot department near a village, 20 kilometres away from Cahors. The property is easily accessible from the departmental road. A private driveway weaves between trees, bamboo and Mediterranean plants, runs alongside a high stone retaining wall, before finally terminating in front of the house. A parking area is available in the shade of the bamboo and, around a well, a circular space facilitates vehicle manoeuvres. To the left, a runoff collection pond is covered in water lilies. Built at the end of the 3-hectare contiguous property, the house, surrounded by gravel patios, is first visible from its west gable end. To the north, there is a dovecote, separated from the house by approximately ten metres, and trellis gardens that are supported by dry stone walls. Here, the view takes in the forested hill, while to the south, the elegant façade, with its wrought-iron banister, has a wrap-around balcony on the first floor, connecting two covered patios decorated with stone columns, as well as wisteria and other climbing plants on the garden level. Numerous tall windows bathe the interior in light. The property occupies a side of the hill and the house, due to the site’s natural slant, has a ground floor on the north side that corresponds with the first floor on the south side. Each slope has its own double door entrance crowned with a glazed fanlight. The stone stairs and walkways in the back of the house lead to the swimming pool located on a patio between sky and foliage.

The Monastery is situated in the beautiful open countryside of Le Marche, between the Adriatic sea and the Sibillini mountains. Surrounded by 360°panaromic views, the property nestles into the hillside where it has been a focal point for the surrounding landscape for hundreds of years. With its 2 apartments, annex, private chapel, 5-hole golf course, pond and swimming pool, it is the perfect property for a retreat in style or as a high-level wedding venue. The Villa Formerly a small monastery with its own exquisite chapel, the villa was bought by the current owners in 2000 as a ruin, and it has been lovingly restored over a number of years. Great emphasis was placed on retaining the original features of beams, antique terracotta floor tiles, open fires and stone walls, whilst adding the modern day comforts that we have all come to expect, such as en suite bathrooms, fully equipped kitchens, wireless internet connection and satellite television. The Monastery (about 600 sq.m.) was renovated with a view to offering a permanent home to the current owners, but also to optionally provide a unique holiday and event venue. For this reason, the main house was equipped with three separate kitchens to maximise the flexibility. One of these kitchens has now been converted into a library, but the wiring and plumbing for a kitchen still exists should new owners want to revert to this layout. A 4th kitchen is placed in the dependance. All sections of the house are interconnecting on the ground floor, which offers all the facilities of a wonderful family home. It would be a simple task, however, to divide the sections of the house into three completely self-contained houses. Ground Floor: The ground floor of the property consists of the following : ” An entrance hall ” Two large living rooms with open fireplace ” Two well equipped kitchens, one with a winter fireplace. ” One utility room ” One large shower room ” One WC with a wet room shower ” A small library ” A dining room with open fireplace First Floor: The first floor of the house is currently accessed via three separate staircases, but for family use the upstairs could be opened up, removing one or more of the staircases. Alternatively, the upper floor of the Oratorio wing of the house (behind the Chiesa) could be left as a guest wing with its own staircase. The upstairs layout is as follows: ” Oratorio: two double bedrooms, both with en suite facilities. The larger room has a whirlpool bath with shower over. The smaller has a walk in shower. ” Granaio (central section): three double bedrooms all with en suite facilities. The largest room also has a bathroom. ” La Stalla: one double bedroom with en suite shower room, one single room (no en-suite), and one suite, with a small sitting room and a spiral staircase leading to a mezzanine bedroom. The en-suite bathroom has a bath with shower over. The Annex In the grounds there is also a separate apartment (dependance, about 75 sq.m.), with its own well equipped kitchen and bathroom with shower. Storage rooms at the back provide a laundry and linen store, and a pizza oven is built into the wall to the rear. The apartment has its own terrace, and offers excellent accommodation for a housekeeper or nanny. The apartment (dependance) has the following facilities: ” A well equipped kitchen, with large oven, hob, fridge and dishwasher ” A bedroom area, which previously was divided from the rest of the apartment by a wardrobe wall ” A shower room ” A sitting and dining area ” A private terrace and garden at the rear of the property ” There is a small laundry and a linen store at the rear of the apartment. ” A bread / pizza oven is built into the external wall of this building. The Private Chapel At the front of the property there is the lovely small Chiesa (chapel), accessed from the formal gardens. The Chiesa can be used for weddings or as a small gymnasium. At present, the chapel is entered externally, but it would be possible to put an interconnecting doorway either in the library or in one of the kitchens. The Garden The Monastery sits in 2 hectares of land, which has been landscaped to provide beautiful areas for relaxation and enjoyment. The grounds have matured well over the years, and now include a 5 hole golf course served by an automatic irrigation system and a 15 metre irregular shaped swimming pool, surrounded by sub-tropical planting. Its position within the grounds provides a sheltered spot in full sun until the early evening. At the front of the house there is a formal garden with fountain, and a small lake provides the perfect hazard for the golf course. The 80 metre drive is lined with olive and cypress trees, and there are several additional olive trees in the grounds, together with a small orchard of apricots, plums, cherries, apples and pears. At the rear of the property there is a very large paved terrace, which can be used for weddings and it is also ideal for al fresco dining, and situated just above the pool is another large terrace shaded by albizia trees and adjoined by a small wooded area to the rear. The Location The wonderful Adriatic beaches of Sirolo, Numana and Portonovo are just an hour from the villa, and the Sibillini mountains are approximately the same distance. From the property, it is possible to see both the sea and the mountains during clear days. There are a number of ski resorts open during the winter months in this area, within an hour’s drive. Le Marche is a beautiful region of Italy, sometimes referred to as Italy in one region, simply because it has everything from the stunning scenery of the Adriatic coast, the mountains and the wooded hillsides to wonderful medieval hill towns with well preserved architecture. Whether art history, the natural world or delicious food and wine are your main interests, Le Marche will not disappoint. The property is within easy reach of Ancona airport (45 minutes) with regular flights direct to London, Brussels and Munich as well as to Catania, Palermo and Cagliari. Rome and Bologna airports are around 3 hours away, but there are further connections available via Rimini, with regular flights to Moscow, St Petersburg, Berlin and Amsterdam to name but a few destinations, and Pescara with additional flights from Barcelona and Oslo. Both these airports are under two hours drive from the property.
