Casa 3 stanze da letto, 518 m²

Castel Sant'Angelo, Rieti (provincia)

The house is completely renovated with all the modern necessities as well as central heating, a fireplace and woodburning stove.  The house faces the view from the side of the mountain and looks down into the Reatine Valley.  The tiles on the floor are hand made terra cotta.  All ceilings are cathedral and made of Chestnut wood beams.  The bathrooms and kitchen are tiled with hand painted tiles.  Two bedrooms and two complete bathrooms including a washing machine. The third room we call Paradiso can be used as a third bedroom or as an additional sitting room.  The terrace is completely private and provides a fabulous panoramic view of Lago di Paterno.  The lake is a treasured springfed volcanic lake known for its curative powers and is used as a public swimming spot during the summer.  

Nearby is the site of an ancient roman bath from the time of Emporer Vespasian.  The society of antiquities has established it an archeological dig.

Nearby, is the city of Rieti. It is a charming medieval walled city with great history, lovely shops, restaurants and coffee houses.  There are many nearby small hamlets where it is easy to find groceries and festival events during the summer.  Paterno and Rieti are part of Central Italy which means that there is easy access to both coasts. You can drive to the Adriatic Sea in two hours and into central Rome in one hour.  There are four beautiful Franciscan Sanctuaries within a short drive that are open to the public.

Below the terrace is an unfinished room that has water and electricity available should a new owner desire to develop another section of the house.  Also below the extra room we call Paradiso is another unfinished space that could be used for storage.
