A village for sale in Italy's Abruzzo region - this stunning property sits atop a rocky spur overlooking the castle at Roccascalegna in Abruzzo's Chieti province.

The castle dominates the village of Roccascalegna and the valley of the Secco river; it is likely to date from the Lombard presence in the region between the fifth and the sixth century. The village, meanwhile, comprises 14 living units, to a total of 440 square metres (plus 15,000 square metres of land). This property has huge rental potential, with beautiful Abruzzo becoming ever more attractive to visitors from the UK and elsewhere. Access is good too, lying only 25km away from the A14 highway exit of Val di Sangro. The coast is 30km and the airport 80km. Ideal for a bed and breakfast.
