The apartment we are proposing is a unique property situated inside a castle dated back to the 1700. The castle in question is Castello Franceschelli The entire castle used to belong to the family of the barons Franceschelli.
Nowadays the castle is divided in eight different portions and one is on the market.
The walls of the castle are completely made of stone, the building is surrounded by boundary walls that are entered through a drawbridge situated on the southern part of the building.
Here a gate opens on a outdoor staircase made of stone that reaches a large terrace floor with a wonderful panoramic view.
On this terrace we find an original portal dated back to the 1700. Internally we find a large common foyer with high barrel ceiling with lunettes, from the foyer we reach the common courtyard where is kept the original beam that used to operate the drawbridge.
The courtyard is situated in the center of the building and from here it is possible to reach the cellars and some of the stables, nowadays converted into apartments.
From the internal foyer a staircase takes to the noble quarter divided into several apartments, only one inhabited by the descendants of the feudal lords and this one is the apartment we want to propose.
