Historiskt hus 3 sovrum, 200 m²

Alatri, Frosinone (provins)

Casa Margherita is a prestigious home for sale in the heart of the historic centre of the medieval hilltop town of Alatri, only an hour’s drive from Rome.  Part of a distinctive building dating from the 1800s, it is located a few steps from the lovely Piazza Santa Maria Maggiore, on the via G.Matteotti.  Beautifully and completely renovated in 2016, the property features an imposing independent entrance, a charming internal courtyard and terrace, and is configured over the ground, first and second floors of this elegant historic mansion.  Exceptionally spacious. it evolves over a total of 200 square metres of residential space, a further 60 sq.mt. of cellars, store rooms and laundry, and very importantly 105 sq.mt. of private terrace and a 20 sq.mt. private courtyard.  

Opening off the important central Via Giacomo Matteotti, an arched double entrance door welcomes you to the ground floor, where the cellars, the laundry room and the private courtyard are located to the left.  An elegantly beautiful, sweeping central marble staircase leads up to the first living level where there is a large entrance hall, a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom, enhanced by a spacious dressing room and an area with vanity unit for cosmetics.  This first floor adapts itself perfectly as a luxurious guest suite for friends, offering privacy while still creating a feeling of inclusion in the family life.

An open staircase leads to the second level, where a spectacular large living area creates a wonderful optical effect of space, harmony and elegance. On the left there is a sitting area, warm and welcoming, featuring a magnificent  wall-mounted ‘thermo’ stove;  on the right the equally-elegant dining room, whose dining table comfortably seats 10,  and finally the well-fitted modern kitchen.  Leading off the living area is the staircase for access to the terrace.

An antique, fully-restored wooden door dating from the original building opens into a hallway with an attractively tiled modern bathroom, and a corridor that leads to the other two bedrooms, one of which also has an en-suite bathroom, and the other is equipped with a dressing room currently used as a small study.  

The large terrace completes this wonderful property; a convivial space amongst the ancient roofs of the historic centre with a unique view of the acropolis of Alatri. This is a ‘pocket terrace’ design, built into the sloping roof, bordered by a parapet , such that the terrace is not visible from below.  It features a floating floor, and a relaxation area, with a fine barbecue area.  Casa Margherita's terrace is undoubtedly a haven where it is possible to stage romantic sunset dinners or host larger parties with friends and family enjoying the warm Italian summer evenings, amidst the enchanting panoramic vistas and the sparkling night lights of Alatri.

The excellent renovation carried out in 2016  included: independent heating system with a condensing boiler, a pellet fireplace, an automatic ventilation system, LED l ighting system, a Clam Termofavilla T30 brand heating stove, terrace with porcelain stoneware flooring, thermal insulating tiles 6 cm Editec, video camera connected to a TV system and mains sewerage. The external shutters for the windows are the restored original wooden shutters, the inner fixtures for the windows feature Lennok Lentrad fittings in double glazed wood and energy certified glass, oak flooring, Mirage model WS porcelain stoneware, Nobili taps and Simas sanitary ware. Finally, the ceilings feature the original coffered ceilings and wooden beams from the late 1800s building and have been beautifully restored. 

Without a doubt, Casa Margherita is one of the most prestigious, historic and exceptional homes in the beautiful city of Alatri, featuring an elegant fusion of original restored antique features and elegant modern design.
