Description
Facing south and south-west, the property is arranged over three levels and retains many original features of traditional rural architecture, including exposed wooden beams, terracotta arches, brick columns, and natural stone walls.
Ground Floor
The ground floor features a spacious living room extending across the entire level, complete with a beautiful stone-and-brick fireplace, a bathroom, and masonry already prepared for the installation of a kitchen.
First Floor
An original stone staircase leads to the first floor, where a bright second living room opens onto a small terrace overlooking the historic village. This versatile space could also be used as a bedroom, home office, or reading room.
Continuing beneath an exposed timber roof, you reach the sleeping area, which comprises two bedrooms and a family bathroom. One of the bedrooms is large enough to accommodate the installation of an additional en-suite bathroom.
The bedrooms are connected by a charming wooden mezzanine, which may remain open to create a unique architectural feature or be enclosed to separate the rooms completely. The mezzanine offers sufficient height for a children's play or study area with a sofa bed and desk, or it can simply serve as additional storage space.
Cellar and Utility Area
From the courtyard outside the house, you can access an additional interior space: a characteristic stone cellar where natural bedrock emerges from the walls, creating a truly authentic atmosphere. This area also houses the property's technical room, including a 1,000-litre water storage tank (autoclave) and the boiler.

Underfloor heating system;

Arpino and the Ciociaria Region
Arpino is one of Lazio's most fascinating historic hill towns, located in the province of Frosinone, in the heart of the ancient region known as Ciociaria. Sitting approximately 600 metres (1,970 ft) above sea level, the town boasts a history spanning more than two thousand years. It was first inhabited by the Oscans, then by the Volsci, before becoming an important Roman settlement.
Arpino is internationally renowned as the birthplace of Marcus Tullius Cicero, one of Ancient Rome's greatest statesmen, philosophers, and orators.
Among its most remarkable attractions are:
the ancient Civitavecchia Acropolis with its extraordinary pointed arch gateway, unique in Italy;
impressive Cyclopean (megalithic) walls;
beautifully preserved medieval churches, noble palaces, and picturesque streets.
Discover Ciociaria
The Ciociaria is a historic and cultural region of southern Lazio. Although it is not an official administrative district, it has a strong identity rooted in centuries of history and tradition. The name comes from the cioce, the traditional leather sandals once worn by local shepherds and farmers.
The region is renowned for its Roman and medieval heritage, fortified hilltop villages, authentic local traditions, spectacular mountain scenery, and the breathtaking landscapes of the Comino Valley and the Ernici Mountains.
Ladislaus Castle
The oldest sections of Ladislaus Castle date back to the 13th century. It takes its name from King Ladislaus I of Naples (1376-1414), of the Angevin dynasty, who enlarged and transformed the fortress into a royal stronghold, even establishing his court there for a period. The castle was built upon an earlier 13th-century fortress.
Over the centuries, the castle has undergone numerous alterations and restorations, including repairs following the devastating earthquake of 1456.
Today, Ladislaus Castle is home to the Umberto Mastroianni Foundation and Museum, dedicated to one of Italy's most celebrated 20th-century sculptors. The castle also serves as a prestigious venue for temporary exhibitions, conferences, educational programmes, and cultural events, making it one of the most important artistic and historical landmarks in the region.
