Amaseno, Frosinone, Lazio, Italy

Casa Sabrina is an elegant, newly restored and remodelled apartment in a historic stone building dating from the 1700s.  This 131 sq.mt. 2 bedroom/1 bathroom home is located in the heart of the historic centre of Amaseno, a charming medieval town less than 90 minutes from Rome.

The property is laid out over three levels.  Adjacent to Amaseno's main piazza "Piazza Castello" and approached through an ancient stone archway, a private wrought-iron gate leads up a short flight of steps to the entrance to the home. The first floor features a spacious open-plan area where the quality and classic style of the renovation creates a warm and welcoming ambiance.  Of particular note are the  antique wood-beamed ceilings with their crystal chandeliers, the matching wall lamps, the exposed old stone and the ancient terracotta tiles, which together combine to highlight centuries-old beauty with modern-day comfort and convenience. A fully-fitted modern kitchen blends in seamlessly with the decor and an adjacent eight-inch thick wooden dining table divides the dining and seating areas.  An open log fireplace enhanced with interesting stone and brickwork provides a lovely focal point for the room.

A graceful wooden staircase with wrought-iron railings leads smoothly and easily up to the hallway on the second floor - the hallway has a charming little external balcony.  Here is to be found the master bedroom suite - a double bedroom again combining elegant antique finishes with modern comfort, a dressing room and a modern attractively-tiled bathroom with shower.  Three steps up from the hallway lead to a second good-sized bedroom rather romantically positioned in the attic and currently used as a hobby room.  This room enjoys an enchanting panoramic view over the whole valley.  The flooring on this level is in wood parquet.

Casa Sabrina benefits from its own independent gas-fired central heating system with wall-mounted radiators, air-conditioning and recently-installed modern french windows with Juliet balcony grills.

The apartment also posses a large cellar located on the ground floor adjacent to the entry gate.  It is currently used as a laundry but it could also become a storage area or be secure housing for bikes or scooters. There is a further storage room in the cellar where the water tank is located.

There are two reserved parking places 20 metres away and also public parking is available in the nearby main piazza.  Amaseno has excellent road access; also public transport can be reached from Casa Sabrina within a minute's walk.  Shops, restaurants, cafés and services are all within a moment's stroll from this home. Almost equidistant between Rome and Naples, the centres of both cities and their respective airports are only 90 minutes away.


AMASENO

Amaseno was named as one of the most charming small towns in Italy in the Borghi d'Italia awards - the TV documentary can be accessed by a link in the Media section of this advertisement. The half hour documentary is of course in Italian but there are many beautiful pictures of Amaseno including the historic centre where Casa Sabrena is located, and also of the surrounding countryside, thus providing a real "feel" for the town and area before visiting it.
