3 bedrooms apartment, 139 m²

Sora, Frosinone (province)

Beautifully renovated 140 m² apartment in Sora in a great location close to the city centre on the third floor of a modern independent building. The very high specification renovation carried out in 2020 not only renewed the electrical and plumbing services, installed high quality double glazing and fitted efficient hot and cold air conditioning but transformed the interior into a luxurious sophisticated contemporary space. The apartment is accessed by a common staircase and the building has no lift. The apartment has approximately 17 m² balcony space and has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a very well appointed new kitchen. 

Entering the apartment we find a large and welcoming hallway of about 14 m² with adjoining 3 m² cloakroom. This marvellous space is immediately striking and is itself representative of the interiors throughout the home. The beautiful original 1960’s marble terrazzo floors have been retained, the new wall finishes provide a luxurious background to the tastefully selected furniture and artworks and the dropped ceilings bestow a wonderful architectural feel, allowing the use of clever recessed lighting schemes and lending the rooms a depth and sense of proportion they otherwise might not have. The hallway is also part of the useful circulation space of the apartment and links the first reception living room to the other areas of the home. The overall feeling is one of comfort, space, luxurious ambiance and a clever considered and very functional layout.

The generously proportioned main living room of 23 m² is very nicely illuminated with natural light from french doors opening out onto the balcony. The contemporary kitchen, thoughtfully designed and beautifully finished also has access to the balcony and is therefore linked both internally and externally to the living dining room. Through the spacious corridor we find a very useful storage pantry space of 10 m² and also linked to the corridor hallway we find two bedrooms and the main bathroom. The master bedroom of 22 m² is spacious, warmly decorated and has a large walk-in closet. This room opens out to the balcony via french doors which provide the room with a lovely natural light. The main bathroom of 6 m² is very nicely finished in contemporary style and well appointed with a double sink and large shower. The second bedroom is 19 m² and has a spacious en suite bathroom. 

This very attractive property in a great location in a thriving town, close to all amenities, with excellent access has retained the best elements of the original building and paired them with a very high quality refurbishment. The resulting interiors are a delight and will make for a wonderful home, the newly refreshed services and quality craftsmanship and finishes add reassurance that this is a sound property investment. 
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 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 the Ciociaria 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.
