Lantställe 3 sovrum, 191 m²

Casalvieri, Frosinone (provins)

Casale Iacovelli enjoys an enchanting and peaceful countryside location, that is nevertheless only a few minutes from the Cassino superstrada, providing fast and easy access to both Rome and Naples. It is around ten minutes from charming medieval hilltop towns such as Casalvieri, Vicalvi, Alvito and Atina, as well as from the beautiful nature reserve and lake at Posta Fibreno. 

The property for sale consists of two houses, at right angles to each other, creating an attractive cobblestone courtyard area between the two buildings.  Casale Iacovelli is set in 600 sq.mt. of gardens and 38,000 sq.mt. of private grounds with sweeping rural views to the distant mountains.

One of the two houses, more recently occupied, is currently set up with several discreet living areas.  The main part, on the ground floor, has a kitchen (with fireplace), a living room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. A separate ground floor front door opens into a room which originally connected with the rest of the ground floor, but is currently closed off - from here stairs lead up to the upper floor, not currently fitted out. The owner had planned to make a second apartment.

The lower floor of the house, which owing to the slope of the land is ground level at the back, has two garages, a cantina, and a technical room (for the boiler etc). 

This house could therefore either return to being a complete family home, or be configured as several apartments for letting and/ or b&b suites. 

The other house, to the right in the lead photo, is an old stone house. It has two original stone fireplaces, an attractive small wrought-iron balcony over the front door, a very large first floor terrace with sweeping views, a traditional external stone staircase to provide direct external access to the upper floor, and a small painted rondel on one ceiling.  (The interior photographs are all of this house, since the the owner has only just finished the building work restoring the first house, and it hasn't yet been cleaned for photography.) This house can either be kept as a single house, or divided, since it has two entrances on the ground floor and one on the upper floor. 

The old stone cellars under this house, featuring original cobbled floors, are also very attractive.  Although requiring restoration, this house has the potential to be a really lovely home. The owner says that the structure is in good condition, although of course it requires rewiring etc.

Thus in time, it would be possible to have the stone house (once restored) as the principal home and the second house as an income-generating investment, or as a guest house for family and friends.

Both houses have views across their own land, and the stone house in particular has very striking views from every window. 

There is a well in the garden.  There is ample space to install a swimming pool (subject to the usual planning consents).

This property benefits from an excellent location;  the nearby properties all feature beautifully restored or recently built houses on large plots of land.   Only 90 minutes from Rome and Naples and their airports, Casale Iacovell is also very convenient for exploring the lovely Ciociaria region.  Shops, restaurants, services, cafés and bars are only a few minutes drive.
