Roma, Rome, Lazio, Italy

Few addresses in Rome carry the weight of Via Appia Antica. One of the ancient world's great consular roads, it now forms the spine of a UNESCO-protected archaeological park - and it is here, within that preserved landscape of Roman tombs, umbrella pines and walled private estates, that this villa sits on over half an acre of private garden.
The Property
The villa extends to 5,920 sq ft (550 m²) of interior space arranged across multiple levels, within private grounds totalling approximately 22,600 sq ft (2,100 m²). A 807 sq ft (75 m²) terrace connects interior to exterior on the upper level. The property is presented for renovation: the structural fabric is sound, the floor plan generous, and the architectural character - barrel-vaulted reception rooms, arched windows, terracotta tile floors, original marble fireplace - is worth preserving. Eight bedrooms and five bathrooms provide the spatial framework; the renovation defines everything else.
Accommodation
The ground floor is anchored by a vaulted reception room of approximately 860 sq ft (80 m²), with barrel-arch ceiling detailing, arched garden-facing windows, and an original marble fireplace. Terracotta floors establish the material register throughout this level. A kitchen and second reception room complete the ground-floor living arrangement, with direct access to the courtyard and covered carport.
The upper floors accommodate all eight bedrooms across rooms of varying proportion - several principal bedrooms are well over 215 sq ft (20 m²) - alongside five bathrooms. The scale of the floor plan allows substantial flexibility in reconfiguration: the buyer can determine the suite count, bathroom distribution, and circulation entirely according to their specification. A 807 sq ft (75 m²) rooftop terrace sits at upper-floor level, overlooking the garden canopy.
Exterior
The 22,600 sq ft (2,100 m²) of private garden is the estate's defining asset. Mature cypress trees and umbrella pines form a natural perimeter of considerable visual depth; the garden reads as fully enclosed despite its extent. A brick-paved courtyard connects entrance to garden, with climbing vegetation along the boundary walls. A secondary outbuilding sits within the grounds - suited to garage, staff accommodation, or storage conversion. Private parking is available within the perimeter.
Infrastructure & Technical
The property is presented pre-renovation. Energy class G reflects the current pre-works condition. Renovation creates the opportunity to introduce climate, connectivity, and security infrastructure to a fully bespoke specification. [VERIFY heating/connectivity/security details prior to publish]
