Historic Residence in Palombara Sabina
In Palombara Sabina, atop a hill with panoramic views of the Lucretili Mountains, in a corner of paradise combining history, nature and comfort, we offer for sale an 18th-century farmhouse with an estate of approximately 10 hectares planted with olive trees. The historic residence, built on the remains of a Roman domus, is unique of its kind and was renovated in 2010 using original materials and in accordance with the principles of bioarchitecture.
The property, currently used as an accommodation facility, is arranged over two levels and comprises six spacious bedrooms, four bathrooms, two dining rooms with fireplaces, and a large kitchen. The garden and numerous, varied outdoor spaces offer several relaxation areas and outdoor dining zones. The large swimming pool, positioned overlooking the historic village of Palombara Sabina, provides the opportunity to enjoy pleasant days and spectacular sunsets. The residence’s charm is enhanced by an ancient olive mill, used for several generations by the owner’s family to produce oil from the olive trees on the estate; today, this space is used as a games room and shared lounge. The farmhouse includes approximately 450 sq m designated for residential use under category A/2, plus a further 200 sq m designated C/2, divided into four units. For the latter, the use may be changed and the original A/2 category restored, based on the new owner’s project.

The village of Palombara Sabina welcomes visitors with the unmistakable profile of Savelli Castle, one of the most imposing and best-preserved medieval fortresses in the province of Rome. Walking through the cobbled alleys of the historic centre means stepping back in time, surrounded by ancient walls, evocative arches and distinctive stone houses that tell centuries of feudal history. This atmosphere of times gone by, together with important religious sites such as the Abbey of Saint John in Argentella, makes the town an unmissable destination for lovers of culture and slow tourism.
Nestled on the slopes of Mount Gennaro, Palombara Sabina is a true green gateway to the Lucretili Mountains Regional Nature Park. Its strategic location offers breathtaking views over the Roman countryside and provides an extensive network of nature trails ideal for trekking, horseback riding and mountain-bike excursions. This extraordinary biodiversity just a short distance from the capital attracts nature lovers and sports enthusiasts every year, seeking clean air, unspoilt landscapes and rejuvenating silence far from the metropolitan bustle.
The deeply authentic identity of this area is reflected in its culinary excellence, above all the Sabina PDO extra virgin olive oil, renowned since ancient times for its superior quality. Alongside this “yellow gold” stands the celebrated Palombara cerasa, an exceptionally sweet cherry variety to which the town dedicates one of the region’s oldest and most popular festivals every year. The combination of agricultural traditions passed down through generations and the warm hospitality of the local community results in a genuine food and wine offering, capable of showcasing the true flavours of the land.
