Style and design go hand-in-hand in Italy, from the presentation of the delights at the gelateria and pasticceria, to the way Italians wear their scarves and purposefully stir their espressos. Italians seem to have mastered “style” in a way that never goes out of style. The same is true of certain restoration projects here in Le Marche. In fact, there’s a restored townhouse in Penna San Giovanni with a spectacular roof terrace and an interior style that will never go out of style. We call this fine townhouse Casa Di Moda, loosely translated as “It’s Got Style”.
A GOOD DEAL NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE!
TOWNHOUSE DI MODA NOW AT A NEW PRICE!
Townhouse Di Moda is the ideal in-town solution. You enjoy all the benefits of being in town with the comfort and good living you’d expect from a house in the countryside. You also enjoy all the benefits of a design & character-rich restoration that marries traditional style with very comfortable contemporary living, Marche country meets Scandinavian minimalist.
Fully restored & done right, Townhouse Di Moda is the perfect mix of rustic and contemporary styles that comes in at 125 sqm. over 4 floors, plus a terrific 16 sqm roof terrace with incredible panoramic views. The property has been restored to an excellent standard with high quality materials and finishings, including large format floor tiles, polished concrete stairs and Carrera marble in the kitchen. There are exposed stone/brick “accent” walls thoughout. Beamed ceilings, painted white, allow the character of the old beams to be seen while allowing the rooms to feel bigger and brighter. The owners work in interior design and it shows. Townhouse Di Moda is very unique as townhouses go.
The outside of Townhouse Di Moda is integrated into the timeless walls of the town, with old stone and brick façades that are as fashionable for home buyers today as they were for the nobility that first created them 800 years ago.
The townhouse boasts living spaces that are open and bright. The ground floor, or street entry level floor, has a seriously stylish kitchen. The kitchen will bring a smile to your face, its bright, happy colors being a touch of style unto themselves. There’s a balcony on this floor, ideal for taking in the views from the room or listening to the swallows as they take flight outside the window. On the 1st floor there’s the comfortable living room, with fireplace and balcony, this one big enough for a chair or two to take in the outstanding views. As for the two bedrooms and bathrooms, we move find them on the sub-street level floor and the 2nd floor, a unique arrangement wherein each of the stylish bedrooms has its own privacy and has its own ensuite bathroom. The bathrooms are equipped with excellent quality materials and stylish touches that speak to the overall design sensibility that’s the signature of Townhouse Di Moda.
Moving to the top of Townhouse Di Moda we find the 16 sqm roof terrace. This, in tandem with the overall design, make this property a unique proposition. The views from this terrace are outstanding…full, straight-on views of the Sibillini Mountains, surrounding hill-towns and the rolling hills and cultivated fields between. You’ll love this terrazzo for a relaxing morning cappuccino, a late afternoon siesta, al fresco dining, some late night star gazing or, simply, for taking some sun and enjoying the views. Note that just off the terrace is a sizable storage room and laundry.
Another great aspect of Townhouse Di Moda is that it’s close to many desirable hill-towns and is right in the center of another – you reside in Penna San Giovanni, a quiet little town with basic services and some very pleasant places to eat or have a cappuccino or prosecco. There’s also a well-known specialty food store there with local products and freshly prepared foods. The pizzeria boasts of having a “terrazzo belvedere”, which means a scenic terrace. So, just a short walk from the townhouse you can enjoy an authentic pizza and a big view. Also nearby are elegant Servigliano, one of our favorite Marche towns, Sant’Angelo in Pontano, Falerone and others. Note, too, that a quick 5 minute drive from town you’ll find the Parco Saline (the Saline Park), a nature park with picnic areas, walking trails, cycling trails, a pool and even a river for bathing and cooling off. Townhouse Di Moda is centrally located, around 45 minutes to the beach and 35 minutes to the heart of the Sibillini National Park, while being nearly equidistant from provincial capitals Macerata and Fermo.
On a practical note, Townhouse Di Moda is “easy to own” and easy to enjoy in all seasons, given its low annual maintenance needs/costs. The heating system with municipal-gas is most efficient and affords the opportunity to heat just a part of the house, e.g. a single floor. There’s internet wifi present. The furnishings can be included, subject to negotiation and agreement between buyer and seller. Parking for Townhouse di Moda is just below, on the street. The current owners have, in the past, successfully rented the house to a maximum of 4 guests for around €1,000 per week. The townhouse is an excellent solution for under-served renters – couples, single travelers, 3 travelers who don’t need a big villa rental. Following that model, Townhouse Di Moda actually generates a profit while you profit from all it has to offer!
So, if you’re looking for the perfect Marche townhouse to demonstrate your good taste and personal style, we’ll meet you on the rooftop terrace at Townhouse Di Moda where good taste and good living never go out of fashion.
