Set within the medieval estate of Castello del Duca, there’s a poetic ambience to this apartment that feels enchanting. It’s the kind of home that inspires you to stop and simply admire the details that make it special. With views across the valley of Tiber and over to the Reatini Mountains, the fresh countryside air fills this space with an uplifting presence. And the spirit of joy continues inside the apartment. From the eclectic styling to the art and objects, every detail of this home inspires a wonderful sense of joy and curiosity. You’ll love waking up and stepping out into the garden – this is the perfect place to drink your morning coffee under one of the old pine trees. Days can be spent lounging by the pool, hiking or cycling through this beautiful countryside. You’ll find a supermarket, cafes and restaurants in the nearby village – a ten–minute walk away. And Rome is only a forty–three–minute drive from this home. Wherever the day takes you, this home is a wonderful place to socialise, relax, cook and raise a glass to the beauty of Italian living.
