Villa Frascati

FRASCATI: VIA DI SALE’ TOWER AND PRESTIGIOUS HISTORICAL RESIDENCE Crossing the gate and walking along the entrance avenue of this extraordinary residence of high archaeological value, we are already immersed in an atmosphere rich in history, facing the imposing circular wall structure dating back to the imperial period, which tradition indicates as the ancient summer residence of the valiant Roman general Lucullus. This unique site is located in the Frascati area and has undergone various transformation processes over the centuries, also hosting a Benedictine church, hence the present presence of the ancient Romanesque bell tower, later walled inside a defense tower by the Counts of Tuscolo. But the definitive arrangement was the work of the Annibaldi in the full 13th century; from then on, the site was constantly controlled by the most influential noble families succeeding in the territory of the Castelli Romani, until it became, around the mid-19th century, the current private property of a prominent Tuscolan family. Within the walls of the ancient tower, the main residential complex stands, with a total area of about 900 square meters, surrounded by the enchanting garden, still rich today with well-preserved original historical elements. The central body features sumptuous rooms and large hallways, excellently distributed over the three levels of the building. You can access the two large reception rooms and the spectacular terraces on the second floor by ascending the evocative staircase, obtained inside the ancient bell tower. From here, the view, besides getting lost in the picturesque panorama of the Castelli Romani, can admire the vast estate of over 2 hectares, predominantly cultivated with productive olive groves. Completing this unique property is a delightful 90 square meter annex with an independent entrance, overlooking the lush olive trees. The estate, therefore, with its spaces full of history, offers the possibility of living in an incomparable setting, rich in charm, combining antiquity and modernity, immersed in an area far from the city chaos but, at the same time, well connected to roads and highways (7 km from the Grande Raccordo Anulare, 20 km from the center of Rome, only 10 km from Ciampino Airport and 35 km from Fiumicino International Airport - Leonardo da Vinci), thus not giving up privacy and a naturalistic context without comparison.
