4间卧室半独立房屋, 311 m²

阿尔皮诺, Frosinone (省)

Casa Chiatti (ref: 516) is a beautifully renovated property set in an attractive small gated garden in an enviable location midway between the medieval hilltop town of Arpino and the riverside restaurants and bars of Isola del Liri.  

This semi-detached villa is configured over three levels and has been designed to create the utmost flexibility:  each of the first and second floors are self-contained 115 sq.mt. bright and spacious apartments with separate entrances, allowing a two generation family to enjoy their own private space, or alternatively allowing the generation of rental income from one of the apartments, perhaps interspersed with use by family and friends.

On the ground floor, the property benefits from a double garage and a cellar storeroom.  An external courtyard extends into a private fully-fenced garden of around 70 square metres with another small outbuilding. Electric gates and a pedestrian gate open onto a private driveway giving complete privacy.  A perfect home for spending moments of relaxation outdoors, safe also for children and pets. 

On the first floor, a generous entrance hall leads to a large living room, a kitchen/dining room with elegant wood kitchen units and attractive fireplace, two bedrooms and a bathroom.

The second floor features an American-style kitchen with peninsula, an open space living area with elegant modern fireplace, separted by sliding art glass from the sleeping area, which consists of two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of which with a bathtub. The master bedroom has a balcony.

The property benefits from double-glazed netted windows with external shutters.  There are autonomous heating systems on each floor including reverse cycle air conditioning to ensure maximum comfort in every season.  All utilities are connected.

Casa Chiatti enjoys excellent road access and nearby public transport.  A multiplicity of choices in restaurants, cafés, shops and services in the beautiful nearby towns of Arpino, Isola del Liri and Sora is only a few minutes drive. And Rome and both of Rome's international airport airports are less than 90 minutes away.

ARPINO, ISOLA DEL LIRI 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. It was the birthplace of Cicero, Gaius Marius, Marco Agrippa and Giuseppe Cesari.

Isola del Liri is one of the major medieval towns in the area. The historic centre of Isola del Liri is actually on an island formed by the convergence of two rivers with a spectacular waterfall forming the focal point of the old town.   

The historic centre of Isola del Liri is actually on an island formed by the convergence of two rivers with a spectacular waterfall forming the focal point of the old town. The town has many festival throughout the year, including long standing blues festival (this is why it is twinned with New Orleans). The historic centre is particularly known for its many bars and restaurants.

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.
