Description
Villa Capella Lucida (ref: 484) is a delightful country villa, set in the countryside between the towns of San Donato and Alvito.
The ground floor has a spacious central open plan living area, with kitchen, dining and sitting zones, as well as an attractive library/card room. At each end of this space there is a wing extending at right angles, each with two bedrooms and a bathroom (it would also be possible to turn one wing into a large master suite with dressing room).
The upper floor has a large central area at the top of the stairs currently used as a casual lounge and hobby area, with two further rooms, one on either side, one with an ensuite bathroom.
The lower floor has a classic 'taverna' (entertainment area) with old stone fireplace, tv lounge area and large wooden tables for gathering family and friends in front of the fire in winter, or as a cool retreat in the hottest days of summer.
There is a further bathroom on this floor, as well as the garage and storage space.
The grounds are planted with olive trees, fruit trees and pine trees, and there is a charming patio with a wood-burning pizza oven. The garden is fully fenced, and borders by tall hedges.
As well as exploring the charming nearby hilltop towns, there are many convenient sporting activities: riding, hiking, fishing, biking, paragliding, and in the nearby mountains winter sports. There are also many restaurants to explore, both in towns and dotted throughout the countryside, as well as local festivals, an active winter concert season, modern and renaissance theatre and a thriving art scene.
COMINO VALLEY AND THE CIOCIARIA
Val di Comino is a valley in the centre of Italy, in the region Lazio, that includes approximately 20 villages. It's a territory that holds unspoiled nature, historical villages, tradition and an excellent local gastronomy. The valley is in a privileged position: it is close to the National park of Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise, which is the oldest National park in Italy and the richest in biodiversity, but it also close to the major communication channel represented by the Autostrada del Sole and the railway, which connects the North and South of Italy. The ski resorts of Pescasseroli, Forca D'acero and Opi are only 30 minutes away by car and, In approximately 30 minutes by car, you can also reach the lake Barrea, in the park of Abruzzo, or lake Cardito (also known as lake Selva), which is also located in the park of Abruzzo (1000 meters above the sea level). For the sea lovers, in approximately 1 hour by car, it is possible to reach the coast, with the beautiful beaches of Sperlonga, Formia and Gaeta.
In the valley there are a good number of historical villages, some of them dating back to the first centuries BC, that especially in summer and autumn, attract many tourists and people from the region, thanks to the cultural events that are organized to promote the territory. The villages are filled with stalls, scents of local products, music and fireworks.
San Donato is one of the most picturesque medioeval village of the valley. It was listed as one of the best historical villages in Italy and also received a recognition by the Italian touring club, for the hospitality and the quality of the cultural events offered. The historical centre is very nice with its narrow streets, stairs, picturesque alleys and small squares with bars, wine bars and little shops with local products. San Donato is in the National park of Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise and it's a perfect place for nice walks in the nature and hiking excursions on the mountains.
Often overlooked, both by tourists and by those foreigners in search of an Italian home, in favour of the more publicised 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 Alvito 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.
