Appartamento Carlo Cattaneo
In the charming town of Sora and advantageously located in a tranquil residential neighborhood, this wonderful apartment embodies the essence of sophistication and elegance. Gracing the second floor of a lovely building, the apartment is accessed via a shared staircase, it has anelectric pedestrian gate and two designated parking spaces.

The location is particularly good, offering easy walking distance to the city center so owning a car therefore is optional! The vicinity is generously endowed with an array of amenities and facilities, catering to every need and desire.

The apartment, having undergone a comprehensive renovation in 1991, is the result of the fusion of two adjacent homes, resulting in a total area of 237 square meters. This merger allows for a wonderful floor plan with two distinct areas, a splendid living space spanning 114 square meters and elegant sleeping quarters extending over 123 square meters.

Upon entering, one is welcomed by a secure door that opens to reveal a wonderfully impressive open reception area which is beautifully open to the rest of the living area. We are presented with a marvelous view of the apartment. Abundant natural light bathes the space, with the 11 square meter entrance area adorned with a captivating geometric marble floor featuring Botticino white, Rosso di Verona, Verde Alpi, and Verde Guatemala precious marbles. These elements delineate the open entrance area and lead to a 22 square meter living zone with a unique flexible design, all anchored by two splendid geometric arches which extend the space into additional rooms.

Adjoining the expansive 37 square meter dining area is a 20 square meter kitchen, discreetly separable from the dining zone by a double-hinged sliding door by Garofali. Both of these spaces offer access to the front balcony, extending over 15 square meters. Among other architectural elements, meticulously designed dropped ceilings craft sophisticated geometries  and lines and are complemented by spotlighting and neutral-toned walls across the entire living area. To the right of the living zone, one encounters a 15 square meter sitting room. The entire living space benefits from well-proportioned windows that ensure optimal illumination and ventilation.

Continuing along the corridor on the left side of the apartment, one discovers a 9 square meter laundry room and an equally spacious storage area and from here we are in the sleeping quarters where we find, a 7 square meter main bathroom, the first bedroom, measuring 16 square meters, and then a significant Master Bedroom of 20 square meters, furnished with a 4 square meter ensuite bathroom. The master bedroom is connected to a spacious Dressing Room of 8 square meters by a partition adorned with open lateral arches, these offering access to an external balcony that floods the space with light and warmth. The third and last bedroom occupies 17 square meters.

The living areas feature prestigious flooring, adorned with white Botticino marble strips that showcase the material's exquisite detailing. This choice harmoniously complements the neutral tones of the walls and ceilings, culminating in a distinguished ambiance. Green Guatemala marble skirting elegantly serves as a border, bridging the flooring and walls while introducing precious veining, uniting beauty and elegance. The sleeping quarters are elegantly covered with parquet flooring crafted from the rich and distinguished African Afzelia wood, the floors have a warm chestnut hue. This parquet seamlessly marries the contemporary furnishings with the marble elements in the interior design. Although the interiors might be decorated in a variety of styles and furnished in a variety of ways the architectural elements of the building will in any case lend the whole a pleasing sophisticated quality.

Completing this magnificent apartment are two balconies, a security door, a pre-installed alarm system, an electric pedestrian gate, two parking spaces, autonomous methane gas heating, and timber framed double-glazed windows. The apartment is delivered unfurnished, offering an open canvas for your creative vision to shape the desired living space, an opportunity to transform dreams into reality, an opportunity to manifest and make real a vision for living.

The asking price stands as a testament to the exceptional quality-to-value ratio this property presents. For the discerning individual seeking a refined abode that embodies the essence of Italian elegance, this exquisite apartment in Sora represents a rare and exceptional opportunity.

SORA AND THE CIOCIARIA
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.
