The frescoes in the grand hall are by Melchior Jeli, an 18th-century painter whose work appears in homes and churches across Italy.
Oriental scenes on the walls, rare 19th-century French maps that somehow survived intact, decorated doors, original terracotta floors. This hall gets mentioned in literature on historical Italian residences, which tells you it's the real thing, not just estate agent hyperbole.
This noble palace sits in a medieval village in the Marche heartland, protected by the National Heritage Authority as a notable architectural monument.
Built in 1800 with a square floor plan, it spreads over three levels with 450 square metres of living space, plus a courtyard and garden measuring nearly 500 square metres. The weight of history's all over this one.

Ground floor: entrance, three rooms with cross vaults, sanitary facilities, storage. The main staircase alone is worth looking at, adorned with coffered ceilings and handcrafted ceramics.
First floor has a separate entrance and houses the star attraction: that frescoed hall, plus a living room with fireplace, two large bedrooms, study, bathroom, and storage. The interiors are richly decorated throughout, the kind of valuable historical finishes you can't recreate even with unlimited budget.
Basement level delivers cross vaults, a fireplace, and underground caves, because apparently every proper Italian palace needs mysterious underground spaces. From the cellar, you access the large garden with a well and entrance gate. The courtyard and garden give you outdoor space without leaving the palazzo's boundaries.
Location-wise, you're in the Marche region not far from the Adriatic coast and Ancona. Medieval village setting means history and atmosphere, though you'll want to confirm proximity to actual services.
Being a protected historic landmark means renovations will require approvals and adherence to preservation standards, so this isn't a "knock down a wall on a whim" situation.
€530,000 is negotiable, and they're cagey about publicly disclosing the price (discretion reasons), which suggests either there's flexibility or they're hoping for the right buyer who appreciates what they've got.
For an 18th-century palace with documented artistic heritage and National Heritage Authority protection, the price feels grounded rather than fantastical.
You're buying actual Italian architectural history here, not a farmhouse with "historic features."
