4 bedrooms farmhouse, 340 m²

Tarano, Rieti (province)

sabina

The farmhouse “I Melograni” is near to San Polo, district of Tarano (Rieti) in the Lazio Region.
Located just 40km north from Rome, in the Sabina hills in one of the most beautiful areas of Lazio Region which stretch from the banks of the Tiber River to the Monti Sabini in a panoramic position and famous for the prestigious extra virgin olive oil (DOP).

The silence and the vision of these gentle hills make this environment unique for those looking for the typical lifestyle of the countryside, but also an extreme proximity to the major art cities such as Rome, Viterbo, Rieti, and Terni, as it is well connected both to the A1 Highway and the railway station just 10 km away.
The farmhouse is ideal as a first home, second home,  B&B, an agritourism or a farm and can be used as an income during the summer.

The property is in excellent maintenance conditions.
The house, dating back to the 19th century, has been completely restored and renovated using top quality materials and retaining the original style of the house (handmade cotto tiles on the floor and on the roofs, wooden beams in the ceiling).  The stone fireplaces have been retained in their original locations and cleaned. Interior walls have been mainly plastered but several sections have been left in rough stone and stylishly showcase the original skeleton of the house.  All the wooden windows, with double glazing, are fitted with security wrought-iron grilles, designed to blend in with the house.
