A 200m2 apartment is available in an owner-occupied building, equipped with every modern convenience and in excellent condition, situated in a panoramic position between the cultivated fields and the woods, just five minutes from the town centre of MARRADI.
The house rises from the ruins of fort dating back to 1050, still quite apparent inside the apartment itself, which is made up of a large entrance hall, three bedrooms (can host 4 comfortably guests), a spacious lounge with imposing fireplace, kitchen and bathroom with shower.
On the outside there is a very terrace for outdoor meals and a rustic building with a wood-fire for baking bread and a large hearth for preparing meat on the spit.
Marradi is a small, ancient village in the Tosco-Romagnolo Apennines, and lies on the "Antica via del Grano e del Sale" route that once linked the Republic of Florence – where wheat was grown –with the Romagna area, where the characteristic “sweet” salt is still harvested in Cervia to this day. Surrounded by splendid, unspoilt landscape, the centre of the village boasts a number of beautiful noble buildings that testify to its illustrious past, and Marradi is a superb place both to live in and to visit. Life here moves along at a very “human” pace, well away from the hustle and bustle of the city, enhanced by the green forests and the clean, crystal-clear air, not to mention the excellent cooking, featuring the delicious local produce. Especially worth trying are the superlative Marron Buono chestnuts and the truffles, to mention just two. The locals are known for their hospitality and are happy to share with visitors the attractions of Marradi and the surrounding area, the birthplace of the poet Dino Campana and the inspiration behind his renowned work "I Canti Orfici".
In the centre of the village, visitors can admire the Archpriest's Church, featuring alterpieces by the Maestro of Marradi, the eighteenth-century "Teatro degli Animosi", the Church of Suffrage, Palazzo Torriani, the Dino Campana Study Centre, with the museum adjacent to it, and the Centre for the Study and Documentation of Chestnuts. The area is the ideal choice for a relaxing holiday, offering walking, horse-riding and mountain bike trips to visit the hermitages and the abbeys, or the nearby art cities (Florence, Faenza, Ravenna, Bologna), which can be reached by train. Also well worth exploring are the food and wine itineraries both in Tuscany and in nearby Romagna.
