Farmhouse "Tenuta del Viandante "

FILOTTRANO (AN) 2016-2017

A true synonym for peace and relaxation, the rolling hills of Le Marche provide the perfect refuge for those seeking solace from the chaos of metropolitan life. This expansive estate, nestled in this idyllic landscape, has long been a sanctuary for travelers. Its historical significance is such that it lent its name to the area, known as Località Taverna. Originally a 16th-century structure, the existing building was transformed in the 18th century into a noble residence with an adjoining church. To this day, it retains the structural and decorative elements of that period.

The Marche Regional Authority for Architectural and Landscape Heritage has placed a full protection order on the main building, recognizing its historical and cultural value, as well as on the courtyard in front, thereby defining the volumetric limits for any additional structures subject to intervention.

The project was therefore conceived with the goal of preserving and enhancing the existing property, highlighting its unique characteristics while respecting its historical, architectural, and landscape features.

The agritourism resort "Tenuta del Viandante" was born from the functional redevelopment of the entire complex, including the renovation of two agricultural annexes for hospitality use and the creation of a swimming pool.

The building facing the pool houses two apartments designed as open-plan spaces over two levels, featuring a double-height volume that opens onto a mezzanine area. The seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces maximizes the enjoyment of both the interiors and the surrounding green landscape.

The second building, with a view of the forest, contains two compact studio apartments, carefully designed to be both functional and comfortable.

The architectural project and interior design were guided by the ambition to create a space where contemporary finishes and materials harmoniously blend with the elements of Marche’s rural tradition. The result is an elegant yet understated environment, exuding warmth and refinement. Each apartment has an independent entrance and a private outdoor space, while the architectural details and built-in furnishings have been custom-designed to optimize functionality.

The swimming pool is the focal point of the expansive garden, elegantly adapting to the natural slope of the land with an infinity edge that visually extends into the surrounding panorama. Its sophisticated dark-colored lining creates a reflective surface that mirrors the majestic oak tree dominating the garden, producing a striking and natural effect.

Sustainability was a key principle in the project, aligning with the values of the agricultural estate. This approach was applied not only in the selection of construction and finishing materials but also in choosing local suppliers and craftsmen, fostering the cultural and economic development of the region.

The infinity pool at the agritourism overlooks the rolling hills of Le Marche and features an anthracite gray PVC lining. Like the rest of the estate, the pool is heated by the sun. To preserve space, all technical equipment has been discreetly housed in an external wooden structure.
