MAIN MANSION

Built in the 1990s, the fully operational manor currently accommodates a flourishing hospitality venture. The ground floor includes spacious halls, two bathrooms, a pantry, and a kitchen, and is presently used as a restaurant. The upper two levels house a gracious living room, six double bedrooms, five bathrooms, and two magnificent terraces. These terraces offer idyllic vantage points for soaking in the serene rural landscape, sipping an aperitivo glimmering in your hand as dusk settles over the mountains.

The peaceful and generous garden, at present partially used as parking, comprises a diverse variety of plants and shrubs, crowned by a majestic centuries-old oak reachable along a graceful, pebbled path. This lush greenery provides an exquisite venue for lively gatherings, elegant barbecues, or the addition of a luxurious swimming pool.

APPURTENANT LAND

Situated on the north, south, and west sides of the main residence, the surrounding land benefits from prime orientation and excellent sun exposure, making it particularly well-suited for a wide range of cultivars or for the development of solar energy projects. The terrain enjoys level contours and ready-built irrigation systems that amplify both agricultural value and development potential.

The land is largely contiguous, with the major exception of a 3,800 m² parcel located beyond the A24 Teramo-Rome Highway to the northwest. Access to this separate segment is maintained by a carriageable bridge. The main contiguous parcel is bordered by the A24 Highway to the north and the Vomano River to the west.

PROXIMITY AND INFRASTRUCTURES

Perhaps it is no coincidence that the property lies just a short distance from the Vicus of San Rustico, the most ancient settlement in the Vomano Valley and a major archaeological site. The estate is indeed very well connected, situated only 1.6 km from the A24 Teramo-Rome Highway entrance. This provides an efficient route to Rome and its airports in approximately two hours. Abruzzo Airport in Pescara is within a fifty-minute drive, while Teramo, the provincial capital, is just fifteen minutes away. Essentials are close at hand in Villa Vomano, a five-minute drive offering shops, supermarkets, and restaurants. The picturesque nearby village of Basciano, known for its renowned Prosciutto Festival that draws tens of thousands of visitors each summer, is only six minutes away by car. The closest seaside resort is Roseto degli Abruzzi with its pristine beaches and vibrant ambience, approximately a thirty-five-minute drive. Within just thirty minutes, you can reach the foothills of the Gran Sasso and embark on a cable car ride to Campo Imperatore, a gateway for skiing and exploring the majestic Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park.

RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL

The main building has supported a thriving hospitality business for over two decades. It is currently leased as a restaurant and hotel under a contract that extends for another 6 years, enabling the buyer to benefit immediately from its rental income. The lease applies only to the building and the garden. The surrounding land remains free of restrictions, that is, the buyer gains full and immediate flexibility to develop or use that land as they wish.

This property presents an exceptional opportunity for investment in a lavish residence poised within an enchanting natural landscape, yet conveniently accessible. It can be transformed into a sophisticated luxury home or held as a high-yield investment, with substantial potential to capitalize on the commercial value of the main building through its suitability for a high-end restaurant and hotel as well as on the development opportunities of the surrounding land.
