3 Bed Townhouse for sale
Casoli, Chieti, Abruzzo, Italy
Full Description
This property consists of three floors. The total area is about 120 m2, though the walls are thicker at the base, making the living area larger higher up. It has been almost completely renovated at a no expense spared level with the highest quality materials. For the warm summer days, there is, of course, AC installed. One area that is not yet fully renovated, which is the bottom floor or the basement, has been prepared and has to be completed by the new owners.
You may enter the property from Via Centrale, which could be considered the main entrance. If you have kids, though, maybe you prefer the entrance from the garden instead.
From Via Centrale, you enter on the middle floor into an open living area with dining, relaxing, and a kitchen together. To the left, you enter the staircase upwards. Straight ahead, you exit to the lower balcony. To the immediate right, the staircase to the basement is located next to the kitchen. You exit into the garden. This floor has one toilet.
Stepping upside, you reach one large bedroom and one smaller one. Both access the bathroom from separate sides. The smaller room also reaches the top balcony with stunning views over the mountains. These magnificent views are a feature seen from almost any angle or window of the property.
The basement consists of one large room and one bathroom. There is also an exit to the garden.
The garden has been covered in beautiful stone to avoid grass and other things growing when not there, but it also has some chosen flowers and plants and a lemon tree. There is an outdoor kitchen and dining area at the top and a lower level for relaxing and sunbathing. There is an outdoor shower with solar heated water. Walking down the steps, you reach the basement and its separate entrance, while at the top, you exit to Via Garibaldi, which is a beautiful staircase famous in many pictures of the village.
The facade of the building is freshly painted, and the roof has been completely restored.
There are foreigners in Casoli, but most of them own properties. If occasional tourism occurs, these are mainly domestic people. The neighborhood below is a lovely Swedish family visiting for holidays and sometimes subletting on AirB&B.
The other neighborhood is an old palazzo, the Palazzo Ricci. One of Casoli's more famous buildings is currently being restored to its former glory by an American joint venture. There will be a number of apartments in the Palazzo that will be sold shortly. This project also consists of restoring the old and very large Palazzo garden, with pool area etc. These gardens border each other, though their garden does not have a view into this property because of this one being at a much higher level.
To reach Casoli from abroad, the closest international airport is Rome, some 230 kilometers away on the west coast. Picking up a rental car at the airport and driving to Casoli takes about 3 hours. There is also a just finalized decision to expand the airport in Pescara to international capacity. When that is finished, you may reach the airport in 45 minutes.
The house is about 120 sqm with an external area of about 50 sqm.
The Stones structure dates back to the 14th century.
Renovations through 2019-2020 to a modern standard while keeping some of the old details of the structure as decoration.
Heating and air conditioning.
All new appliances such as washing and dishing machines, inductive stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator/freezer with ice-machine and electric hot water boiler.
