Exclusive Villa in Mercato Saraceno – Emilia-Romagna

The Villa
The residence extends across approximately 155 sq.m. arranged over two floors.

Ground Floor:

The ground floor opens into a spacious, light-filled living and dining area, seamlessly connected to a modern kitchen. From here, large French doors lead to a pergola – the perfect setting for al fresco dining and leisurely gatherings with family and friends. This level also hosts a stylish service bathroom and a refined master bedroom with an elegant en-suite. Every room on the ground floor enjoys direct access to the landscaped garden.

First Floor:

A striking black-painted steel staircase leads to the first floor, home to two further double bedrooms, each with its own private en-suite bathroom.

Rebuilt in 2019 to the highest standards, the villa combines premium finishes with an authentic dialogue with the natural environment. Exposed wooden beams painted in soft tones and wood-effect gres floors create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Comfort is ensured by underfloor heating powered by a high-efficiency condensing boiler, complemented by solar thermal panels for hot water production. A wood-burning fireplace graces the main living room, while air conditioning ensures cooling during the summer months. The property boasts an excellent energy classification thanks to advanced construction criteria: ventilated roof, insulated walls, and raised foundations. Water supply is provided by the municipal aqueduct, while a rainwater collection well sustains the garden irrigation system.

Access is both scenic and practical: a private bridge, built by the owner, leads onto a tree-lined driveway that gracefully guides visitors to the residence.

The Land

Set amidst approximately 7,2 hectares of pristine land, the estate unfolds as a tapestry of manicured gardens, aromatic woodland, and arable fields. The crowning jewel is the 8x4m swimming pool, strategically positioned to command awe-inspiring views over the Savio Valley.

The landscape design has been carefully orchestrated to offer multiple secluded relaxation zones, allowing guests to unwind individually or gather communally, according to the mood of the day. Whether basking in the sun or reclining in the shade of mature trees, every corner exudes serenity.

The Location

Perched in a tranquil and elevated position, the villa enjoys breathtaking views across the Savio Valley. Mercato Saraceno itself is a charming town rooted in agriculture and local traditions, with four esteemed wineries preserving the ancient native grape varieties of Sangiovese and Albana. The region is renowned for its rich landscapes and outdoor activities, offering scenic trails ideal for mountain-biking and cycling enthusiasts. The famous “Nove Colli” route – a legendary cycling trail – weaves through these hills, connecting Romagna to Tuscany and the Casentino Forests.

Despite its serene privacy, the property benefits from proximity to notable towns: Cesena, Forlì, and Rimini are within comfortable reach, offering cultural landmarks, fine dining, and vibrant local life. This unique blend of seclusion and accessibility makes the villa a rare gem.
