Arcevia, Marche 60011

Nestled among the gentle hills of the Marche region, overlooking a valley that opens up to the Adriatic Sea, the Cardinal Estate is a place suspended in time. On clear days, the view extends beyond the hills to glimpse the outline of the sea, while the tranquility of the landscape speaks of slowness, nature, and beauty. Once the summer residence of Cardinal Pianetti, today this magnificent property is reborn as a refuge of peace and harmony, at the gates of the medieval village of Arcevia and in the heart of the Gola della Rossa and Frasassi Natural Park. A Mediterranean park of about 3.7 hectares envelops the estate with olive trees, mixed forests, ancient trees, and an explosion of colors: in spring, wild cyclamens and rare orchids bloom, creating a fairytale atmosphere. At the center of this enchantment, the large panoramic pool (12 x 13 m) is the perfect place to rejuvenate and admire the landscape, amidst the silence of the hills and the scent of nature. The property includes: Main villa of 340 m² Ancient chapel (convertible) Independent cottage of 175 m² Panoramic pool Private park with olive grove, forest, and irrigation system A place to live together or host travelers The Cardinal Estate is ideal for multiple family units - up to three families - thanks to the presence of several independent living units.
