"Giacomo Leopardi" Tower House, Montefortino, Marche, Italy
Historic residence to be completed and transformed into a unique private home or hospitality property

In the authentic heart of the Sibillini Mountains, where medieval villages still preserve the legacy of noble families of the past, stands the "Giacomo Leopardi" Tower House - a rare example of historic architecture connected to branches of the family of the celebrated Italian poet.
A place where history, landscape and memory remain beautifully intertwined.

Situated in a commanding position overlooking the village of Montefortino, the tower - currently registered as storage premises - enjoys extraordinary views across stone alleyways, historic rooftops, bell towers, the Tenna Valley and the peaks of Mount Priora and Mount Sibilla.
A timeless and almost literary atmosphere that perfectly reflects the authentic spirit of the Sibillini area.

Historic origins and architectural character
The tower dates back to the medieval period and has undergone a conservative shell restoration aimed at preserving its original identity and architectural character.
Important original features include:
Porphyry stone frames and lintels, showcasing the craftsmanship of the period
Wooden floors and traditional terracotta tiles, carefully preserved and restored
Remains of ancient frescoes, valuable traces of the building's historic past
Three-level vertical structure of approximately 200 sq m, typical of historic watchtowers
According to local tradition, the building may originally have served as a defensive watchtower protecting the village, adding significant historical and symbolic value.
Current condition and development potential
Although structurally sound thanks to the restoration work already completed, the tower still requires internal finishing works, utilities installation and interior layout development in order to be transformed into:
Prestigious private residence
Historic character home
Exclusive hospitality property
The interiors remain unfinished, allowing complete freedom of design and customisation for those wishing to create a unique and refined property fully integrated into its historic setting.
Location, atmosphere and outdoor potential
The tower enjoys exceptional panoramic views across hills, woodland and mountain peaks.
An adjacent plot of land is also available, ideal for:
Creating a panoramic swimming pool
Outdoor dining and BBQ areas
Gazebos and relaxation spaces
Outdoor areas for hospitality activities
An ideal setting for living or welcoming guests in complete tranquillity, surrounded by the unique atmosphere of the Sibillini Mountains.
