A symphony of luminosity, openness and minimalist sensibility permeates the home.

The ingeniously elevated ground floor, accessible from the entrance with its welcoming gate, has been meticulously fashioned into a unified living space. Light oak flooring graces the entirety of this level, setting the tone for a seamless flow of design. The kitchen and dining areas integrated with the spacious living room, a generous expanse of 35 m², radiating warmth and hospitality. Oversized windows flood the space with sunlight, beckoning the outdoors in. A 13 m² balcony extends from the living room, gracefully leading to a 120 m² courtyard. Here, an artful wooden gazebo and a manicured synthetic lawn create a convivial oasis, perfect for leisurely days or soirées with cherished friends.

Ascending to the first floor, the sleeping quarters come into view. Two bedrooms, measuring 10 m² and 16 m² respectively, extend their welcome with access to private balconies. Light oak laminate flooring graces these tranquil sanctuaries, offering a modern and youthful ambiance. The master bedroom, spanning 16 m², boasts a balcony view and harmoniously blends classic furnishings with contemporary accents.

A 9 m² bathroom, doubling as a laundry room, boasts a shower cubicle and opens onto a 10 m² balcony. The attic exudes a subtle romantic allure, once the refuge of artists, now transformed into a practical and comfortable domestic space.

The basement floor, accessible from the ground-level entrance, encompasses a 35 m² garage with an automatic shutter and an additional 20 m² area suited for various functions. The property is replete with modern comforts, including a segmented heating system powered by either efficient methane gas or eco-friendly pellets, double-glazed windows, mosquito nets in the living area, awnings, a 500-liter autoclave, an alarm system, air conditioning, water purification, a comprehensive television system even in the courtyard beneath the gazebo, an automated gate, an automated overhead door, and a dropped ceiling adorned with energy-efficient LED lighting.

SORA AND THE CIOCIARIA
The Ciociaria region is within easy reach of both Rome and Naples and their respective airports. A day's shopping in Rome is a common pastime, while an even shorter drive brings you to the charming beaches south of Rome. Alternatively, drive east, and the mountains of the Abruzzo National Park await with horse trekking in the magnificent beech forests, and sparkling mountain lakes and rivers where you can swim in the heat of the summer. And at the other extreme of temperature, although Sora itself is temperate, less than an hour's drive brings you to the winter ski slopes.

Often overlooked, both by tourists and by those foreigners in search of an Italian home, in favour of the more publicised regions of Tuscany and Umbria, the Ciociaria remains largely an unspoilt gem with beautiful scenery and medieval hilltop towns. A home or second home in the Ciociaria will afford you a setting where over two thousand years of history combine with an idyllic rural Italian lifestyle, where you can still discover the 'real' Italy and take time out from the busy crowds of the larger tourist cities, while being less than ninety minutes journey from central Rome or either of Rome's two airports.
