2间卧室历史性公寓, 238 m²

帕利亚诺, Frosinone (省)

A stunning fully restored apartment with large terrace and private garden in an important Baroque palace, with the option to purchase the remaining part of the ground floor, providing several more bedrooms and another bathroom. Ornate coffered ceilings, polychrome floors, stone fireplace. Sold furnished. Sweeping views.

This exceptional apartment, brimming with charm and history, occupies a distinguished portion of the Palazzo D'Ottavi, a residence that is an integral part of the ambitious urban renewal project in Paliano, undertaken by the noble Colonna family, one of Italy's most influential aristocratic houses with deep ties to Rome's history and the Papal States. Between the late 17th and early 18th centuries, the Colonna family selected Paliano as their countryside noble residence, thus beginning an era of profound transformation for the town. Their grand vision for the city included the construction of the Palazzo Ducale, the restoration and embellishment of the Church of San Andrea, as well as the creation of new buildings that adorn the historic gates and walls of the town. During this same period, monuments and funerary shrines were also erected in honor of the prominent members of the Colonna family.

The Palazzo D'Ottavi, built upon the foundations of ancient olive mills, stands as a fine example of temperate Baroque architecture, with a subtle classical accent. Its elegant, imposing lines clearly recall the style of the noble palaces that flourished in Rome during the same period. The architectural style of the Palazzo also bears resemblance to that of the Church of Santa Chiara in Anagni, built in 1745 under the direction of the illustrious Portuguese architect Manoel Rodriguez Dos Santos. It is believed that Dos Santos, operating between Rome and Anagni, likely also oversaw the restoration of the Palazzo D'Ottavi.

The apartment, located on the ground floor, spans 238 sqm, complemented by 40 sqm of panoramic terrace offering an unrivaled view over the Sacco Valley and the historic town of Paliano.

The interiors, recently and meticulously restored while respecting the building's historical character, retain precious original features of inestimable value, including polychrome floors, a stone fireplace, magnificent coffered ceilings, and period furnishings that tell the story of centuries of elegance. The interior layout includes a spacious reception hall, two bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a large entrance hall with dining area, and a beautifully appointed bathroom. Completing the property is a private garden of approximately 300 sqm, directly accessible from the residence, offering a peaceful retreat with views over the village of Paliano.

The apartment also benefits from exquisite cellars spread over three underground levels, which rest upon the very site of the ancient olive mills that once stood there, beneath the foundations of the Palazzo.

Furthermore, there is the possibility to acquire the remaining part of the first floor, thereby creating a residence of even greater prestige that would occupy the entire ground and first floors of the Palazzo. The acquisition of this section would significantly expand the living space, enhancing the property's grandeur and offering the opportunity to further customize the layout in an exclusive and opulent manner.
