Villa Modeagni | 3-Bedroom Villa in Massa Fermana Marche

Eight guests arriving at Villa Modeagni in Massa Fermana discover something rare: a restored farmhouse where contemporary living genuinely coexists with countryside authenticity. This luxury villa rental in Massa Fermana sits within rolling Marchegiano hills, just 3.5km from the village centre, offering families and friend groups immediate access to Sibillini Mountain trails, local wine estates, and a 35km drive to Civitanova Marche’s Adriatic coastline.

Inside Villa Modeagni

Villa Modeagni sleeps 8 guests across 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The ground floor comprises a split-level living arrangement: a lounge anchored by a working fireplace and two substantial sofas faces toward garden views, while an adjacent dining zone seats eight comfortably at a single table. The kitchen occupies its own alcove, fitted with full-sized appliances—dual ovens and hobs, integrated dishwasher, generous fridge-freezer, microwave and kettle—plus a breakfast bar for casual morning gatherings. A separate utility space houses the washing machine and guest powder room.

Upstairs, the bedroom distribution suits mixed-age groups well. Two identically proportioned rooms each contain a double bed with built-in wardrobes and air conditioning units mounted discreetly in alcoves. The third bedroom—the children’s wing—features two sets of bunk beds suitable for four younger occupants, with adequate floor space for travel cots and high chairs (provided on request). The family bathroom serves all three rooms via a short hallway; it contains a walk-in shower, pedestal sink and WC, with heated towel rails and adequate storage for eight people’s toiletries.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The grounds span several distinct zones, each serving a different rhythm of holiday life. An expanse of maintained lawn stretches in multiple directions from the villa’s rear, bordered by Mediterranean shrubland and unobstructed countryside vistas—the sort of open space where children run while adults collapse into the poolside loungers with books and cold beverages.

The swimming pool measures 8 metres by 4 metres, reaching 1.4 metres at its deepest point. The season runs from mid-April through late September, which aligns perfectly with Le Marche’s warm months. Surrounding the pool are stone-set sun loungers, strategically positioned to catch morning and afternoon sun at different times. A large parasol-topped dining table sits on the terrace immediately adjacent, permitting seamless transitions between swimming and eating.

The summer kitchen operates as a secondary cooking hub—invaluable when eight people are planning dinner. It includes a professional-grade barbecue and prep sink, allowing grilled vegetables and meats to emerge while the main kitchen handles pasta and sauces indoors. An outdoor shower (open-air, screened) permits rinsing off pool chlorine and sand without tracking either through the house. Parking occupies a dedicated flat area with capacity for multiple vehicles, essential when guests arrive from different directions.

Location: Massa Fermana and the Surrounding Area

Massa Fermana functions as the villa’s nearest settlement—a compact hilltop village where a small supermarket, café-bars and bicycle rental shops line the cobbled piazza. The Rocca fortress overlooks Mogliano, 6km further northwest, a larger town with proper restaurants, a notable Hat Museum (exploring centuries of regional millinery), medieval churches, and craft workshops where artisans sell handmade ceramics and textiles.

The Le Marche region rewards exploration beyond immediate convenience. Civitanova Marche, 35km to the northeast, stretches along the Adriatic with sandy beaches where families rent beach umbrellas and water-sports operators rent kayaks and paddleboards. The town’s waterfront promenade hosts restaurants serving brodetto (the local fish stew) and fresh catches from morning boats. Potenza Picena, 40km away, offers a quieter beach experience with rock formations and coves.

Cultural landmarks cluster within 30km: the walled town of Sarnano features medieval gateways and panoramic stone streets; Montefortino sits deeper in the Sibillini foothills, offering serious hiking access to Monte Vettore and alpine meadows. Food enthusiasts should arrange truffle hunts during autumn months through local guides—the region’s white truffles command premium prices at markets in San Benedetto del Tronto, 25km south.

For wine discovery, small producers throughout the hills around Montegiorgio (20km west) welcome visitors to taste Verdicchio and Rosso Piceno varieties. Cycling routes crisscross the region—the Via Salaria follows ancient Roman trade paths through countryside now dotted with small farms and agritourism operations.

Seasons matter considerably in Le Marche. May and September offer warm days (22-26°C), calm seas, and lower accommodation pressure—ideal months when the region feels genuinely lived-in rather than tourism-saturated. July and August deliver consistent heat above 28°C, but beaches and restaurants fill dramatically; book accommodation months ahead. Winter (November through February) turns the hills grey and damp, though it remains mild enough for walking; many restaurants and attractions reduce hours. Spring wildflowers and autumn truffle season shape the rhythm for food-focused visitors.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended families with children aged 3-14 find Villa Modeagni especially practical. The bunk-bed arrangement, high chairs, cots, and fenced grounds create a child-safe environment. Parents can supervise swimmers from the terrace while older cousins explore countryside paths within shouting distance. The pool season aligns with school holidays in most European countries, making July and August peak demand periods.

Friend groups splitting costs across 8 people discover the economics suddenly favour a private villa over multiple hotel rooms. The summer kitchen permits group dinners without restaurant reservations; the open-plan living suits evening card games and conversation. Groups planning active holidays—cyclists, hikers, truffle hunters—benefit from a secure base where equipment stores safely between daily excursions.

Multi-generational gatherings—grandparents, adult children, grandchildren—work well provided mobility is reasonable. The ground-floor layout offers alternatives to stair climbing; a grandparent couple can occupy one double bedroom while younger families use the remaining space. The fireplace transforms October and April evenings into gathering moments.

Couples seeking a larger property for a private retreat, perhaps hosting friends for a long weekend, appreciate the scale and the pool’s social focus. Solo travelers renting for extended stays (month-long research trips, writing retreats) value the reliable Wi-Fi, quietness beyond village noise, and the psychological comfort of space.

Frequently Asked Questions about Villa Modeagni

How many guests does Villa Modeagni sleep?

Villa Modeagni sleeps 8 guests: two guests per double bed in each of the first two bedrooms, and up to four children across the two sets of bunk beds in the third bedroom. Cots for infants and high chairs for toddlers are supplied on request, accommodating families with very young children. An optional camping house (available at additional cost) expands sleeping capacity to 10-12 people for larger gatherings.

What is the nearest airport to Villa Modeagni in Massa Fermana?

Ancona Airport (Raffaello Sanzio) sits 80km northeast, approximately 90 minutes’ drive via the A14 motorway. The route follows signage toward Rimini, then branches inland on regional roads (SS16) toward the Massa Fermana valley. Car hire at the airport is essential, as public transport to the countryside runs infrequently. A secondary option, Perugia Airport, lies 120km southwest (two hours) via mountain roads through Umbria, better suited for travellers with time flexibility.

What is the best time of year to rent Villa Modeagni?

May and September deliver optimal conditions: daytime temperatures range 22-26°C, rainfall is light, and the region sustains a genuine local rhythm before peak summer tourism peaks. The pool operates fully, countryside flowers bloom in May, and autumn brings truffle season plus harvest activities. July-August guarantees warmth (28°C+) and reliable sunshine but attracts crowds to beaches and restaurants; book three to four months ahead. April and October suit active walkers seeking cooler temperatures (15-18°C) but require layers and expect occasional rain. November through March turns the landscape green and wet, reducing appeal unless winter walking or quiet solitude motivates the visit.

Is Villa Modeagni suitable for families with children?

Villa Modeagni caters specifically to families with children. The fenced grounds provide secure outdoor play space; the bunk-bed bedroom suits siblings and cousins; and the pool’s 1.4-metre depth accommodates confident swimmers and young learners under supervision. Civitanova Marche’s supervised beach areas, 35km away, offer lifeguards and gentle gradients ideal for first swimmers. High chairs and cots (provided on request) ease transitions with infants. The quiet countryside location removes traffic danger and nightlife distractions; nearest villages (Massa Fermana and Mogliano) operate leisurely pace suited to family schedules. The summer kitchen and barbecue enable child-friendly outdoor mealtimes.

What is included in the rental price at Villa Modeagni?

The standard rental includes Wi-Fi internet, electricity and heating, air conditioning in all bedrooms, complete linen and towel sets (refreshed mid-week for stays over 7 days), pool operation and maintenance throughout its mid-April to September season, furnished garden loungers and terrace equipment, and pre-arrival cleaning.
