Farmhouses in this particular area are in most cases rather big. Very few of them measure less than 400 sqm. therefore it is rather unusual to find a small house that has not been built for a large family.This charming stone-house measures little above 100 sqm (taken inside). but if someone needs more space - for instance for guest-  is allowed to build an additional building in the garden - ufficially called "storehouse". 

In the ground floor is the big living room, dining room and kitchen, all three connected but still separated. Here is also one of two bathrooms.  In the first floor are two bedrooms and a second bathroom. Room enough for children or guest.
The property is furnished wsith all modern comfort. The original materials such as beams and cotto floor-tiles have been conservated as far as possible. which gives that cosy aspect.
The garden is beautifully grown in with mediterranean plants such as figtrees, old olive-trees lavander and rosemary. You have enopugh space for a pool. Yopu even have a small but very productive vineyard.
The property is ideally suited for a holiday home but also for a small family as residence. 
The land is rather big but not to big for a good lawn mover. A part of it might be usefulo for a natural swimming pond or a pool (appr. 30.000 €) in natural colors (blue ceramic is not wanted in this particular comunity) 
The property is part of the   of the pretty village of FRATTE ROSA which dates back to the 9th century towering the impressive landscape in 419 metres above sea level. Because of its strategically important position this fortress village which is still surrounded by its original city wall has always been of special interest to the  various noble families of Le Marche and consequently a very special flair. The biggest attraction of this very special place are the various potteries, in the old times supplying houshold accessories, nowadays producing high-class arts and crafts.
