Property for sale in Abruzzo - house near Gran Sasso

Il Paradiso di Alice is a superb property for sale in Abruzzo. Slowly renovated by the owners over a number of years, with each small improvement a tiny victory!

This sunny,rustic country home is just the right backdrop for any owner who enjoys spending time in the company of friends. Sit on the patio with its wooden-beamed ceiling, in the garden as you cook with the outdoor oven or as rock on the garden swing hidden from view by the carefully tended hedges. The joyful character of the house is reflected in the colours used: yellow paint on the outdoor walls, the bright green shutters and green front door.

All these colours are reflected in the nature surrounding this home, from the warm and bright colours of the garden and hedges but still further abroad into the magnificent panorama that emerges as you are able to distinguish the Gran Sasso (the local mountain, part of the Appennines) and the small ancient village of Villa Ripa.

This well-loved home has been cared for in every detail, from its barbecue to the outdoor shower with hot and cold running water, with its fenced-in garden that measures almost 2000sqm containing ten fruit trees. The house is in good condition with only a few minor repairs needed, such as replacing a few of the shutters but all the wiring and plumbing are up to standard.

The lower floor measures 130sqm and has an immense dining room,a spacious living room, two bathrooms, a study and a laundry room.The upper floor measures 110sqm and has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a living room open to a corner kitchen that has a fireplace also.
