Old townhouse in a genuine medieval borgo adjacent to a castle, with real historic character. The brick loggia/terrace exterior (photos 1-2) and the barrel-vaulted brick cellar (photo 6) are the strongest features. The castle-context aerial shot adds atmosphere but shows the castle, not the property itself. Interiors are clean but very dated (1970s-80s kitchens, period furniture, patterned tile floors) and the property needs renovation. Outbuildings, sheds and orto are shabby. Bargain-priced at €437/m2 but requires significant work. Solid charm, no true scroll-stopper wow.
- Needs full renovation with dated interiors throughout
- Photos show cluttered outbuildings, corrugated-metal sheds and overgrown vegetable plot in poor condition
- 'Panoramic view' is modest village rooftops, not a dramatic vista
- Pool referenced in listing is public/nearby, not private
