Property description
Casa Renzo (ref: 468) is an attractive single storey independent house with a patio, garden and garage.There are two entrances: the front door opens into the sitting room, and a second door opens directly into the kitchen, which has a fireplace. The kitchen is separated from the living room by a partition wall, so it should be straightforward to make it open plan if so desired.
Beyond this there are two further rooms, both currently used as bedrooms, although the bathroom is ensuite to one of them.
There is also a large storeroom/garage.
There is a 150 square metre patio, and a 300 square metre garden.
The house is currently inhabited, but does not have a heating system installed.
CASTELLIRI, ISOLA DEL LIRI AND THE CIOCIARIA
Castelliri stretches from the flat land around the Liri river up into the foothills of the Ernici mountains. Originally inhabited by the Ernici, by the 3rd or 4th century BC it had fallen under the sway of Rome. Today it has a charming old town, which hosts among other things the big Tarantaliri festival. It has fast road and public transport access to Rome.
Neighbouring Isola del Liri is one of the major medieval 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 historic centre of Isola del Liri is actually on an island formed by the convergence of two rivers with a spectacular waterfall forming the focal point of the old town. It is full of bars, cafes, restaurants and shops. Isola is twinned with New Orleans, and has for many years hosted the international Liri Blues festival.
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 Isola del Liri 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 including Isola del Liri 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.
