Villa Centofinestre, nestled like a treasure in the gentle and secluded Marche countryside, is a historic residence of extraordinary charm. It was built in the early 18th century as a pleasure residence for the Accorretti Marquises and was later masterfully expanded by the architect Pietro Ghinelli, a prominent figure of the Vanvitellian style in the Marche region.

Its beauty is first and foremost expressed through its harmony with the surrounding nature, thanks to a grand Arcadian-style park that envelops and conceals it, transforming the villa into a peaceful oasis far from the bustle of daily life—a place once celebrated precisely as the “Casino of Delights.” The architecture itself reflects timeless elegance, enhanced by the linearity and simplicity of Neoclassicism, while the interiors reveal a surprising richness of decoration: the magnificent salons display wall decorations evoking classical Pompeian scenes—a clear homage to the excavations of the time—accompanied by ceiling grotesques framing enchanting views of the Marche landscape.

The pinnacle of its internal splendor is reached in the grand hall on the first floor, where the imposing chandelier captures the light streaming through the large windows, creating a magical and dreamlike atmosphere, perfect for recalling the grandeur of historic dance festivities. After a careful restoration that returned it to its former glory, the villa today is not only a historical monument but also an exclusive and vibrant venue, where the magnificence of the interiors and the serenity of the park, with its groves and meticulously curated gardens, merge to offer a romantic and refined setting, confirming its identity as a place where history, art, and rejuvenating nature coexist in perfect harmony.
