6 bedrooms detached house, 370 m²

Arpino, Frosinone (province)

DETACHED VILLA UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Villa da Ultimare is located in the beautiful countryside near the historic hilltop town of  Arpino, 90 minutes drive from the centre of Rome and from Rom’s two international airports.

Surrounded by olive trees, this independent building has to date been partially constructed as a reinforced concrete structure on two levels. Initially the house was conceived with the idea of creating two horizontal semi-detached houses, but in reality today it could also be conceived as a single real estate project of 185 square metres on the ground floor and a further 185 square meters  on the first floor. 

The building is being sold on an as-is basis.  Furthermore, creating additional value for the project, the sale price includes:

• land of 11,500 m2, part olive grove and part arable land,
• a portion of a nearby rustic farm building, 
• an outbuilding, and 
• rights on an adjacent ancient “aia” an antique grain threshing stone circle. 

Villa da Ultimare is located in an evocative green and panoramic setting with an excellent view across the valley of the medieval town of Arpino.   There is a large street entrance on to the property from the public road near a locally well-known "Bellavista" restaurant-pizzeria.  Shops, restaurants, cafés and services are only a few minutes drive away, so the home, although tranquil and private in a rural setting, is not isolated.

ARPINO AND THE CIOCIARIA REGION

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 Sora 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 and Alvito, in the riverside towns of Sora and Isola del Liri, 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.
