2间卧室乡间房屋, 180 m²

伊索拉-德尔利里, Frosinone (省)

A charming property full of character consisting of a main terrace house, a second guest house in the courtyard at the rear and land with vinyard of 4000 m² (just under 1 Acre). The first house has accommodation of approximately 100 m² and is the central portion of a grand old farmhouse now divided into three properties. On the ground floor we find an entrance hall, a sitting room with separate access and a kitchen dining room with a fireplace and french doors out to the rear private courtyard. The upper floor has two generous bedrooms, one with a delightful balcony and a bathroom connected by a hallway and corridor.

The second residence of 85 m², located in the courtyard to the rear of the first, is currently in use as a taverna and entertaining space and has a well appointed bathroom. This is designated as a residential unit on the cadastral plans so there is no impediment to remodelling and returning the building to be used as a home or guest house. It includes the ground floor room and bathroom and a cellar and has small sheds used for storage. The courtyard between the two houses is a lovely space which would be very well suited to entertaining and outdoor dining and is covered by a cleverly engineered wooden canopy, it has an area of about 50 m².

The land is currently in use as a well cared for vineyard and runs along the main road which would allow for the creation of a new entrance to the property giving separate and private access. The first house, the larger terrace house has an independent LPG heating system and timber framed windows. It is in very good condition and although the decor might perhaps be considered outdated and in need of refreshing the house could be immediately occupied. The site is very nicely positioned and light fills the rooms at various points during the day and the land is very well exposed to the sun. The location is excellent with a countryside ambiance yet within easy reach of the main regional highway exit and close to the centre of Isola Del Liri a thriving district with many excellent restaurants and bars, interesting shops and of course the spectacular waterfall.

The property has considerable potential, the rear guesthouse could be demolished and rebuilt to higher and larger specification, the land could be reconfigured, the possibility of creating a second exclusive entrance a distinct advantage and overall the charming complex could, with some refurbishment, become a wonderful and unique contemporary country home with guest annex for friends and family or as part of an accommodation business. It should be noted that a house located on the shared access driveway and very close by is also for sale with us and if considered together could become a connected set of properties very suited to guest accommodation and B&B business - see listings for ‘Casa Maurelli’. 

Isola Del Liri is one of the 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 Isola Del Liri 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 publicised 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 one of the towns of the Ciociaria 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.
