We are looking for an easy-going PHYSICALLY FIT, technically minded, self- sufficient person/couple with love of the country life, preferably located in Europe & with previous experience in Italy. If you want to live a bit of an adventure you can experience ACCESS ON FOOT ONLY via a narrow footbridge across a creek, so everything has to be carried up (and down) a 300 m steep unsurfaced road.
NOTE: Bringing your OWN CAR is a must, due to our beautiful solitary location amidst the rolling hills of the Northern Marche region.
The grounds are ca.1 acre of unfenced mixed shrubs, fruit /olive trees, herbs, wild bits and some "lawn" requiring general weeding, mowing, tending and watering. This also extends to physical care of the access road & battling brambles.
General cleaning,diy-maintenance for buildings, solar panel technical understanding as well as waste-awareness required, also watchful eyes and general love of beasties & outdoors!!
Some supervision of building works may be required this year.
Casa Celeste is a peaceful place where you can get real inspiration from nature. The generous layout (5 bed 3 bath) plus spacious annexe allow for creative expansion, dancing, meditation or simply enjoying the good life.
Helpful english-speaking neighbours in viewing distance.
Closest shopping, banking & medical facilities are 4 km away. 10 km to nearest town & 25 km to train station, Adriatic sea, the Appennine hills and "la citta ideale" Urbino respectively. Our region is steeped in history, allowing for a time-travelling sensation on your trips through inspiring landscape to medieval towns and villages.
