Haustier

Villa Il Baiocco is a splendid country house immersed in the green and tranquility of the Marche countryside, just a few kilometers from Urbino. An old farmhouse dating back to the early 1900s, it has been renovated with particular attention to the recovery of old materials and in respect of the naturalistic context that surrounds it. Handcrafted terracotta floors alternating with the expertly salvaged original terracotta bricks of the time, exposed wooden ceiling beams alternating with vaulted brick ceilings, exposed local stone walls, furnishings and tapestries in warm colors: all conferring a relaxing atmosphere for its elegance and simplicity. The ground floor features a large living area with comfortable sofas, TV and a large fireplace, while the basement contains a large open-plan area with a kitchen and dining area that opens onto the wonderful portico and the panoramic swimming pool. Villa Il Baiocco is perfect for those in search of privacy, relaxation and tranquillity but also for lovers of art and history as it is located just 8 km from Urbino, a Unesco World Heritage Site. The geographical position allows guests to easily visit the most beautiful borghi in this area of Marche such as Corinaldo, Gradara, Sassoferrato and to travel as far as the Republic of San Marino. Three km from the villa is the hamlet of Gadana with shops and basic services.

Der Landbesitz

The house is on two floors connected by a small internal staircase. From the main entrance, a few steps lead up to the living area on the ground floor, furnished with sofas, a smart TV, a fireplace and a studio corner. Connected to the living area is the corridor along which open two double bedrooms (one with divisible beds) sharing a bathroom with shower. Also from the main entrance, a few steps lead down to the basement floor consisting of a large open-plan area with a kitchen and dining area. The built-in kitchen, with a convenient central island and a large wooden table that can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people, has a French window that leads directly out to the beautiful portico, just a few steps from the swimming pool. The floor is completed by two double bedrooms (one with a divisible bed) which share a bathroom with a shower.
The park (partially fenced with wire mesh) extends for about one hectare and is inserted in a stretch of semi-hilly countryside characterized by oaks, cypresses, walnuts, olives, fruit trees and mixed meadows. From the entrance gate, an unpaved driveway in good condition, flanked by cypresses, descends towards the house and leads to the parking area in front of the main entrance, where we also find the beautiful brick-built wood oven. The area around the house and the swimming pool is partly paved with elegant marble pebbles while the rest is lawn. Native shrubs, bushes and beds of roses, oleanders, geraniums, and winter jasmines are elegantly alternate with mulberry and strawberry trees and with herbs including lavender, thyme, rosemary and sage. In the remaining sloping part of the property is a large orchard with olive trees and fruit trees such as cherries, plums, pears, apples, nashi pears, persimmons, figs, sour cherries and kiwis. The splendid panoramic portico, directly accessible from the kitchen, is the ideal spot for dining or relaxing in the shade. Not far from the swimming pool is a small pergola with a storage room for the private use of the property for both the technical compartment and for the storage of tools and machinery pertaining to the house.
The swimming pool is 5 meters from the house, on the same level as the basement, facing the portico. Rectangular with rounded ends, and measuring 12 x 5 m with a minimum depth of 1,20 m at the sides and 1,70 m in the center, it is lined in light blue PVC and has salt and chlorine purification and Roman steps for access to the water. The solarium, partly paved with elegant marble pebbles and partly lawn, is equipped with sunbeds and an umbrella. The pool has a wonderful view over the surrounding hills and is available to guests from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.
