Property description
Casetta Collecarino (ref: 456) is a charming house with great potential in the Collecarino area of Arpino. It retains many attractive original features, is well located and has it's own garden. A couple of rooms have recently been fully restored, so you can use it at once, and the rest can be completed to suit your particular requirements. Original wood beams, floor tiles and vaulted cellars. The left hand part of the building has the two recently restored rooms. Entering at the street level door, there is a room currently configured as a kitchen/dining area, and next to it a storeroom. Another door opens onto the garden. Stairs (somewhat steep) lead to the level above where there is a bedroom, a bathroom and a hallway leading to another door, which opens onto a balcony and a flight of external stairs.
The rest of the ground floor consists of two completely unrestored rooms, both with original wood beam ceilings and one with a fireplace, and three rooms requiring some modernisation, one with a balcony with lovely valley views.
There are two further bathrooms on this floor.
As well as the restored bedroom, bathroom and hallway, the first floor has three further large rooms and another bathroom. There is also an attic with original wood beams.
The lowest level of the house elegant vaulted stone cellars.
The generous garden is terraced on three levels, includes a large patio, and has sweeping valley views.
ARPINO AND THE CIOCIARIA
Arpino is one of the major medieval hilltop towns in the area of Italy called the Ciociaria, the name given to the fertile land that lies south of Rome but north of Naples, situated inland in the hills in the heart of Italy.
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 Arpino 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, Alatri 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.
