In the old days impressive land holdings, called Tenute, dotted the Marche countryside. They were typically the province of wealthy landowners and they were almost always located in the most beautiful positions. There’s just such a place, close to Gualdo & Sarnano, that is a perfect example of the genre. We call it La Tenuta di Gualdo. La Tenuta is comprised of 3 individual residences in a complex in which each unit has private land with a common pool area, parking and entry. Today, LA TORRETTA, the most architecturally interesting residence, is for sale with all the benefits of land, views and pool, without having to be a wealthy land holder and without the hassles and expense of owning a large villa!
The architecturally interesting La Toretta is for sale today. This is a very unique building that packs a lot of character and comfort into its 156 sqm. It’s stylish, comfortable and architecturally interesting. It’s rustic warmth embraces you. The ground floor has a big glass-enclosed terrazzo. There’s an old style wood-burner – a “cucina economica” that warms the glass enclosed veranda. The house proper has a modern gas/radiator heating system. The kitchen has classic vaulted ceilings and the ground floor lounge space has niches, arches and a very unique grotto. There are exposed stone walls throughout. La Torretta boasts a second lounge (1st Fl.), two bedrooms (one with a balcony, one with a terrace), and two bathrooms. The outdoor spaces at Torretta are outstanding, with no fewer than three terraces/balcony spaces.

La Tenuta is very unique, too. It consists of two buildings and three private residences. Each of the three units has full title ownership, private land and an equal share of the pool, courtyard, driveway & parking area. La Tenuta presents an opportunity to enjoy a pool, land, olive trees and all the comforts and amenities of Le Marche living with a significantly lower price tag than a big villa, PLUS the benefit of reduced running costs of the shared areas such as the pool, car park and the courtyard garden. Note that La Tenuta’s access road is TOWN maintained.
There is a very clear, registered common agreement of which each owner is a signee. So, individual residence bills related to consumption, such as utilities, are paid separately by each owner while the common costs of land and pool maintenance are paid collectively. The agreement also allows each owner to rent his or her unit as well, as permitting guest stays by friends and family or rental income.
Moving outside at La Tenuta, the total plot consists of 6 hectares and is a guarantee of peace, quiet and privacy. The pool is big and welcoming at 10mx5m. There are fig trees and cherry trees and the mature oaks provide great shade and character. Mature olive trees dot the property. The surrounding gardens are mature and complete. Each residence has its own significant private plot of land, complimented by shared ownership of the aforementioned common areas, including the courtyard and the pool with its surrounding area.
The views from La Tenuta are outstanding. Sibillini Mountains, multiple hill-towns, rolling valleys, sunflowers and lots of sunshine. Close by are ancient Gualdo, bustling Sarnano and classic Sant’Angelo in Pontano, all reachable by car in 10 minutes. Beaches are 40 minutes away and the Sibillini Mountains are under a half hour from La Tenuta. Airports are within 1:15.
