2间卧室公寓, 200 m²

丰泰基亚里, Frosinone (省)

Casa S.Giovanni is an elegant modern apartment in a historic building in the heart of the historic centre of Fontechiari, a few steps from the main Church of San Giovanni. 

A large entrance hall leads to a very large (50 m2) living room, with a galley kitchen at one end.

The master bedroom has a antique wood beam ceilings, and an inglenook fireplace. There is also a large second bedroom. The bathroom is modern and recently done.

The stone 'cantina' (above ground cellar) could be cleaned and restored into a further entertaining area.

The building in which the apartment is located is one of the most important historic buildings of Fontechiari, and includes three other apartments, owned by the same family, and also for sale. One is a two room guest suite; one is an elegant, fully restored three bedroom apartment; and one is the 'piano nobile' with its painted ceiling (for partial restoration). 

THE CIOCIARIA 

Casale Fontechiari is 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 the towns of the Ciociaria are 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.
