I've got this thing about Villas.
These palaces which were once the home of noble or aristrocratic families.
This is in the town of Rapignano, not far from Fermo and the sea. The middle part of this one is occupied by younger members of the original family and the top floor and the stalle (horse stables) and the cantina are no longer used but in perfect condition and exceptionally beautiful.
These images show the habitable middle part and the old stables. Altogether the villa is rather large at some 600mq and I guess it's for someone with rather particular or eccentric tastes, with a love of history and with some project in mind, maybe a hotel or a centre of some kind.



It's got the most enchanting vaulted stalle (stables), beneath, and quite beautiful frescoes in the upper and middle floors (where the descendants of the original family still live)

Just around the corner is the town terrace (although the Villa itself has its own terrace) with panoramic views of the countryside around)
