6间卧室独栋房屋, 400 m²

阿尔皮诺, Frosinone (省)

Casa Federica is an imposing free-standing house with a garden and a spacious roof terrace, situated at the foot of the hill leading down from Arpino to the charming small hamlet of Carnello.  

Built on three levels, each of 140 sq.mt.,and presently configured as two apartments, this property lends itself to a variety of uses:
- as a spacious single family home
- as part owner occupancy, part rented either to short term (bed & breakfast) or to longer term tenants to generate income
- as a multi -family home with adult children each having their own apartments within the building
- for purchase by two families as a shared holiday home, each family with their own apartment

The property is being sold fully furnished, in a good state of repair and maintenance, meaning that it is available for immediate occupancy.

The ground floor consists of an elegant salon, a kitchen/family dining room, a cozy TV room/study, two bedrooms (one furnished with a most attractive solid wood bedroom suite), a full bathroom and a powder room. To facilitate a B&B arrangement (if desired), it would be possible to create two smaller suites, one accessed at the front of the house, the other at the rear, by expanding the powder room into a full bathroom.

The middle floor is configured with a very splendid large double sitting room with bookcase arches and balconies, a master bedroom with carved solid wood furniture, a second bedroom, a strikingly elegant main bathroom with beautiful deep green tiles, a guest powder room (which could be expanded to make a second full bathroom), a kitchen (not currently fitted out) opening into a further room which could make either an expanded, very large kitchen, or a family dining room, or a play room etc., etc.

The top (attic) floor has been configured with a very spacious 'L' shaped open plan area together with a kitchen to give maximum flexibility to create living/dining/study/relaxation opportunities.  Here, there is the possibility of having one/two further bedrooms and a bathroom.  Here also you will find a key feature of the property:  a lovely large roof terrace with sweeping views over Carnello to the hills beyond, ideal for al fresco dining or for relaxing in a reclining chair on a summer afternoon.

A garden, garage and cellar space complete the facilities of this most attractive property.

At the foot of the hilltop town of Arpino, Carnello is a quiet and pretty village nonetheless within 10 minutes drive of the nightlife of Isola del Liri (with its spectacular waterfall) and the local administrative centre of Sora. Small but self-sufficient, Carnello has four bars/cafés, the very fine restaurant at the posthouse hotel, two pizzerias, a post office, a pharmacy, a patisserie, a bakery, a butcher, a hardware store, a stationer's/news agent, a tobacconist, a hairdresser, a church, a service station, a particularly good fruit and vegetable shop ... everything within a minute or two's walk.

The property has excellent access to Rome and Rome's airports, only 90 minutes drive away.  Public transport is available within a few minutes walk from the front door

ARPINO AND THE CIOCIARIA 

Arpino is one of the major medieval hilltop towns in the area of Italy called the Ciociaria, the name given to the fertile land that lies south of Rome but north of Naples, situated inland in the hills in the heart of Italy. 

The Ciociaria region is within easy reach of both Rome and Naples and their respective airports. A day's shopping in Rome is a common pastime, while an even shorter drive brings you to the charming beaches south of Rome. Alternatively, drive east, and the mountains of the Abruzzo National Park await with horse trekking in the magnificent beech forests, and sparkling mountain lakes and rivers where you can swim in the heat of the summer. And at the other extreme of temperature, although Arpino itself is temperate, less than an hour's drive brings you to the winter ski slopes. 

Often overlooked, both by tourists and by those foreigners in search of an Italian home, in favour of the more publicized regions of Tuscany and Umbria, the Ciociaria remains largely an unspoilt gem with beautiful scenery and medieval hilltop towns. A home or second home in the Ciociaria, in the hilltop towns of Arpino, Veroli, Alatri or in the rolling countryside that surrounds them, will afford you a setting where over two thousand years of history combine with an idyllic rural Italian lifestyle, where you can still discover the 'real' Italy and take time out from the busy crowds of the larger tourist cities, while being less than ninety minutes journey from central Rome or either of Rome's two airports.
