3 Bed Apartment for sale
Pennapiedimonte, Chieti, Abruzzo, Italy
Full Description
For sale two apartments with independent entrances in the spectacular medieval village of Pennapiedimonte, called the balcony of Abruzzo for its privileged position in an area of extraordinary beauty. The village rises on the slopes of the eastern slope of the Maiella Mountains at 669 meters above sea level, with houses partly carved into the rock and partly made of local stone, and are connected by steps or narrow streets, which can often only be traveled on foot. The two apartments with independent entrances are located on the ground and first floors. The one on the ground floor consists of a kitchen, living room with small balcony, bathroom, storage room, and a large bedroom. The apartment on the first floor consists of a kitchen with access to the terrace of about 15 sq m with wonderful views, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The properties are in need of renovation, including the roof. The location is fantastic as is the price. Among the narrow streets of the Borgo, where time seems to have stood still, one encounters small stores, oil mills carved out of the rock, houses adorned with the splendid sculptures of the ancient local master stone masons, and it is easy to understand what a slow and peaceful pace life has. A life still tied to the old traditions both cultural and enograstronomic. At the top of the village, which is part of the Maiella National Park, is the Balzolo lookout, where it is possible to admire the view all the way to the Adriatic Sea, from Vasto to Ortona. Only 13 minutes from the center of Guardiagrele where you can find all essential services including a hospital, 20 minutes from Casoli, another fantastic medieval village, 45 minutes from the Adriatic Sea, 50 minutes from Pescara International Airport and about 3 hours from both Rome and Naples.
