8 bedrooms villa, 400 m²

Magliano di Tenna, Fermo (province)

18th-century townhouse with garden for sale in Magliano di Tenna, Fermo, Marche, Italy.

Halfway between the Sibillini Mountains and the Adriatic Sea, this elegant townhouse is for sale. It has been completely restored, while largely maintaining its original charm. The residential building was completed in 1921, and it is a family home built by the 'D'Archì' family, a nickname given to the family by the community of Magliano di Tenna, as was common at the time.

The building was constructed using solid masonry made of very durable light bricks, produced on-site using the soil from the plot where the house was being built. In fact, at the time, building sites were referred to as 'Fabbrica.' The brickwork is not only finely crafted, as seen in the rusticated stonework of the main façade, but also serves a crucial structural role, providing resistance to seismic stresses and good thermal insulation. The floors are made of iron beams and brick, and the roof is a pavilion-style structure composed of wooden beams and brick tiles.

One of the most distinctive features of the building is the staircase, the central element of the house, finely decorated with the fresco technique called 'marmorina.' Both the staircase and the window recesses are decorated using this same technique. Over the past century, the building has undergone various maintenance interventions, both minor and structural, without ever altering its original layout, which was already functional and comfortable.
