Sustainable Heritage and Masterful Refurbishment
The apartment spans a generous 238 square meters of adaptable, semi-open-plan living space. The recent comprehensive renovation was designed with long-term sustainability and ”easy living” at its core. Significant structural investments include a newly replaced and insulated roof, full structural reinforcements extending from the communal hallway throughout the residence, and completely updated plumbing and electrical systems.
Inside, the loft character is defined by high ceilings and contemporary beams, creating an airy, sophisticated atmosphere. The interior features new wooden shuttering, a secure main door, and a fresh, neutral décor that provides a blank canvas for the new owner’s personal style.
As part of the recent Italian scheme to attract investment and retain heritage, purchasing property in historical, low-population areas such as Sarnano (not just the poorer, southern regions) comes with highly attractive tax incentives, thus making the transition to Italian homeownership even more compelling. More information is available on request.
Adaptable Living with Breathtaking Views
The layout is designed for both comfort and versatility, featuring two large, linked living areas that flow effortlessly. The residence includes:
-
Three Spacious Double Bedrooms: Ample room for family or guests, supported by two newly-fitted modern shower rooms.
-
Culinary & Utility Spaces: A large, dedicated kitchen area is complemented by a separate laundry and utility room, keeping the main living spaces clutter-free.
-
Investment Potential: Given its size and sought-after location, the property offers excellent potential as a high-end Airbnb or long-term rental opportunity.
-
The Setting: Residents can enjoy stunning, multi-aspect views of the Sibillini Mountains, all while being steps away from the authentic charm of the Centro Storico, with its winding cobbled streets, artisanal shops, and vibrant local trattorias.
The Le Marche Lifestyle: Mountains to Sea
Le Marche remains one of Italy’s most unspoiled regions, offering a lifestyle that balances rugged outdoor adventure with refined cultural experiences. Sarnano sits on the edge of a National Park, providing immediate access to local ski resorts, hiking trails, and the crystal-clear wild swimming waters of Lake Fiastra.
Within less than an hour’s drive, the landscape transitions from the peaks of the Sibillini to the unspoiled beaches of the Adriatic coast. The region is a hub for culture, hosting world-class outdoor opera and jazz festivals, while fashion enthusiasts can enjoy proximity to premier designer outlet shopping. This is a region where the traditional pace of Italian life remains beautifully intact.
Seamless Transitions and Connectivity
To ensure a smooth acquisition, the sale is supported by a fluent English and Italian-speaking lawyer and agent, providing peace of mind for international buyers. While the village of Sarnano provides a walkable lifestyle for daily needs, own transport is essential for exploring the wider region and accessing the coast.
For international travel, the property is served by several gateways:
-
Ancona Airport (AOI): The nearest airport, approximately 100 kilometers (60 miles) away, offering frequent flights across Europe.
-
Perugia Airport (PEG): A convenient regional alternative located roughly 95 kilometers (59 miles) to the west.
-
Rome Airports (FCO/CIA): Major international hubs reachable within a scenic 3-hour drive.
Own transport is essential.
