Located in a privileged position on the outskirts of Vetralla, the Marchionato di Paternostro Estate stands like a jewel set in the rich landscape of Tuscia, just sixty minutes by car from Rome via the motorway. A place where historical, artistic and natural excellences converge, embracing a thousand-year history and breathtaking landscapes. In its surroundings, Viterbo, with its imposing medieval historic center, stands as the "City of the Popes", famous for its thermal waters, reachable in just twenty minutes via a highway. A short distance away are the coasts of the sea of Tarquinia, while the Argentario, a paradise for elite tourism, stands majestically an hour away. The approximately 13 hectares of this property are a living painting, a landscape steeped in the traditional cultivation of the olive tree, recognized and celebrated with the name DOP. The terrain stands out for its panoramic variety, offering a visual journey that ranges from the peaks of the slopes to the delicate spaces of the valley floor. This experience is accentuated by the evocative presence of the Paternostro ditch, which crosses the property from east to west, dividing the land into two distinct parts, joined by scenic bridges that enchant the eye and the soul. The northern part is a magnificent park garden of about 16,700 square meters, enriched by two lush olive groves that embrace an area of about 12,000 square meters, while three main buildings define the essence of this place: the majestic Casale Grande, a building on three levels with a total area of about 410 square meters completely to be restored to be defined only the finishes, another building to be restored of about 120 square meters and, finally, an already renovated building of about 47 square meters. Five caves carved into the tuffaceous boulder add a touch of mystery and charm. Two entrance gates at the northern border of the land welcome visitors. The main entrance offers a winding path that follows the course of the land, lined with rows of olive trees, oleanders, holm oaks, myrtles and feijoa. A large rotunda, a green amphitheater, opens in front of the façade of the Casale Grande, embraced by a sequence of concentric rows of trees that create an atmosphere of harmony and tranquility. The secondary entrance, lower, leads to a straight avenue surrounded by plane trees and viburnums, which leads to the area of buildings and caves, bordered towards the ditch by a row of lime trees. Through bridges and roundabouts, the southern part of the property looks like an agricultural landscape with meadows and valleys that extend to the vast Poggio Grande, offering views that are lost on the horizon, even to the sea on clear weather days. Dirt paths run through the park and agricultural spaces, allowing for a unique walking experience and a variety of breathtaking views. The Casale Grande, gracefully positioned on a tuff spur overlooking the valley floor of the Paternostro ditch, emerges as the architectural heart of the property. Subject to careful restoration aimed at preserving its authenticity, it offers the possibility of completing and customizing the interior spaces, with a solid structure and fine finishes. The ground floor includes the entrance hall, the kitchen, the dining room and the large living room as well as two closets, a guest bathroom and a fireplace reading area; the first floor includes two suites with sitting room, bathroom and dressing room and a double with bathroom, while the attic is an independent apartment consisting of a double living room, kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms and a bathroom (Cod. 10632) PROPERTY LINK: ### Want to know more?
