Pesaro

Pesaro sits on the Adriatic coast in Italy's Marche region, where a long sandy beach and seafront promenade meet a historic centre of Renaissance squares, churches and the birthplace of composer Gioachino Rossini. Behind the city rise the green hills of Monte San Bartolo, a protected coastal park with trails and sea views. Buyers here find apartments near the beach and old town alongside villas and country houses in the surrounding hills, in a seaside city that stays lively through the year.
