It was an amazing place and we have taken away great memories.
We will definately be going back!
Owner profile
About the owner
We are both teachers with three grown up sons. After many years of family summer holidays in Italy we decided to take a look at Le Marche - an area that we had not looked at - it was love at first sight! Unspoilt, with a little of everything that sums up Italy. Since then all of the family have played a part in the care and upkeep of the house. We all enjoy our time there too. We always return to England a great deal calmer and 'chilled out'. Always.
Year purchased: 2003
Why the owner chose a home in this location
Our farmhouse was discovered after the joy of several trips spent looking. We loved the rural area around, great eating places and the outdoor life. This love has become part of us and has grown. We continue to look forward to every visit, we have made friends there and hope to move out there semi-permanently at some point in the future.
Casa Rosamaria was a total ruin. It was one of those piles of stones with trees growing through them. The photos at the house evidence this. The skill of local artisans and an excellent architect are demonstrated in the end result. Each year we look to make further improvements. The feedback has made the four years of work to completion worthwhile!
It's been fantastic.
Unique benefits of the property
We have many outdoor 'sitting areas' which means that even if you have several people in your party you can enjoy some time quietly with a book or your music!
The pool area is slightly separate from the house. There is also an outdoor sitting area under the pergolas with sofas.
We love art and textiles so you will probably find a selection of art materials and some homely touches around. Some people have fed back that it isn't just a holiday base but more of a home to relax in. With all the mod cons too!
