Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (lease only). The name Antico Ceraso derives from Latin: Ceraso is in fact Cherry in Italian and is a term still used in the local dialect to indicate cherries. The villa owes its name to a centuries-old cherry tree that has long characterised this property and even gave its name to this area. The old cherry tree is no longer there but the park still impresses people with its oaks and huge maritime pines that give the property a special charm and unparalleled natural shade, delightful in the hottest months of the year. Despite being located in a residential area of the countryside, you feel you are immersed in a real natural park: the large shrubs and tall hedges that adorn the fence provide perfect privacy to the villa that welcomes us with its spaciousness and elegance. Large windows and French windows characterise the entire façade of the open-plan dining and living room, giving brightness to the house which combines a modern furnishing style with original elements from the 1950s. The ideal outdoor dining area is on the terrace, accessible from all the living area. The five bedrooms, all with ensuite bathroom, make it the ideal location for families and groups of friends. The park allows you to fully enjoy life in the open air. The two gazebos, a convenient outdoor masonry kitchen, relaxation corners with panoramic benches, children's games, a ping-pong table, the gym and the beautiful swimming pool with hydromassage make it an ideal destination for fun and relaxation and for exploring the enchanting surroundings. The villa is located in a residential area but enjoys privacy and tranquillity and is just a few minutes from Grottaferrata and Frascati where all useful services, shops, supermarkets and restaurants can be found. The villa is located less than 30 km from Rome, in the heart of the Castelli Romani Regional Park: this area has historically been a favourite destination for Romans to leave behind the hustle and bustle of the city, to breathe healthy, fresh air and to enjoy the food and wine excellences that this area has been offering for at least two millennia.

ANTICO CERASO HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE.

Interior:

The villa of about 500 sqm is spread over three floors and is accessed via an imposing front door which leads into the main entrance and then to the dining room, connected to the kitchen, and to the lounge area with sofas, armchairs and fireplace. Large windows and two French windows characterise the entire façade of the open-plan living area. The floor is completed by a guest bathroom, a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower and a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with tub. From the entrance, the internal staircase leads up to the first floor comprising a double bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom with tub, two twin bedrooms with ensuite bathroom, one with tub and the other with shower, and a room used as a study with desk. From the entrance, the staircase leads down to the lower floor with the TV room and the gym, equipped with a bench, multifunction station, treadmill, weights and dumbbells and a bathroom with shower. All rooms have direct access to the outside: thanks to the position of the house, which follows the terracing of the land, you will find yourself on another ground floor with a portico and a pool with a fountain in front. The floor is completed by the laundry room.

Park:

The park for the exclusive use of guests is completely fenced and designed to guarantee total privacy and full use of all the set-up spaces. It extends over an area of approximately 3000 sqm consisting of a rich vegetation of shrubs, bushes of herbs and colourful plants of all kinds. Large areas of lawn are shaded by holm oaks, cypresses and, above all, by large maritime pines, centuries-old trees that make the garden a real park where one can enjoy the coolness of natural shade. Olive and fruit trees such as cherry, medlar, apricot, almond, plum and fig are surrounded by colourful plants that embellish the garden such as lavender, irises, hydrangeas, barnium roses, magnolias and camellias. The property is accessed through two driveway gates, after which the parking area begins: a large gravel area with at least 6 uncovered parking spaces, partially shaded by large shrubs, in front of the main entrance covered by a canopy and characterised by the imposing front door. To the left of the entrance is the part of the garden with children's games, shaded by large trees. A flight of steps leads to the garden at the back of the house, with a large pool with a fountain, a wooden gazebo with sofas and, on the right, another wooden gazebo with a convenient outdoor masonry kitchen area equipped with sink and infrared barbecue set on a marble surface. The gazebo is furnished with tables and chairs. Several benches will allow you to enjoy the view of the surrounding countryside. Inside the property there is also a small chicken coop, hidden among the hedges in a secluded corner of the garden, about 40 meters from the house, which will in no way disturb you during your stay. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

The swimming pool, immersed in the greenery of the park, is located on a slightly lower level than the house which is about 40 m away and can be reached along various routes: gravel path, terracotta steps and lawn. Rectangular and measuring 5 x 10 m with the depth varying from145 to 185 cm, the pool is accessed down a step that leads to an initial platform 45 cm deep. The pool is lined in stone-effect PVC with a travertine edge and has clorine purification and internal lighting. It is equipped with hydromassage with relative platform and an automatic cover, adopted mainly for the safety of children and which allows the pool to be kept perfectly clean and at a pleasant water temperature even in the less warm months of the year. The terracotta-paved solarium area is illuminated and equipped with sunbeds, swing, benches and umbrella. There is also has an outdoor cold-water shower and a bathroom for use of the pool. The swimming pool will be open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.

Location and distances


Antico Ceraso is located in the heart of the Castelli Romani Regional Park, an area that boasts a history even older than Rome, the Eternal City, which is only half an hour away by car, train or bus and can also be reached by metro with two stations 23 km from the villa. It is an area rich in history, art and evidence of a past strongly connected to the history of the Roman Empire and its decline. Historically a destination for the Romans who, over the millennia, built their summer residences here, to escape both the barbarian invasions and the summer heat of the city and to enjoy the fresh, healthy air of the Colli Albani, thus enriching the territory with historic villas, such as the famous Ville Tuscolane. From the ruins of the great villas of the Roman emperors to the Baroque villas of the great families of Roman aristocracy, today the sites of important museums, such as Palazzo Chigi in Ariccia, or 4-star hotels or even private properties of families with a history stretching back centuries. This is an area with a great wine-growing tradition, it is, in fact, the oldest wine-growing region in Italy. Excellent wineries, also known internationally, are dotted throughout the area. Don't miss a visit to a local winery where you can taste, among others, the renowned white wine of Frascati, the only DOCG wine in the area. Food and wine is one of the strong points of the area, with the famous "fraschette" of Ariccia, but also of Frascati and the whole area, delighting the palate of visitors. Ancient taverns that only sold wine, and where customers brought their own dishes, have been transformed into true trattorias where you can sample the specialties of typical Roman cuisine: first and foremost the famous Ariccia porchetta (spit-roasted pork), pecorino (sheep's cheese), cured meats, vegetables and pasta dishes that have made Roman cuisine famous throughout the world. It is also an ideal destination for sports and hiking lovers: we are in the Castelli Romani Regional Park with two volcanic lakes that have remained as evidence of the eruption of the Lazio volcano that gave life to this territory about 600,000 years ago. This territory has been under the dominion of the Papal State, as evidenced by the seat of the Vatican in Castel Gandolfo, larger even than the Vatican city in Rome. Former summer residence of the Pontiff, the Papal Palace, the Pontifical Villas and the Barberini Gardens are now open to the public. Water sports on Lake Albano, such as canoeing and kayaking, or the more leisurely boat tour of the lake, as well as the beaches with the comforts of the numerous well-equipped establishments, complement the hiking and mountain biking trails and the horse riding that allow you to enjoy the nature of the Castelli Romani Regional Park. The beautiful Abbey of San Nilo is less than 3 km from the villa, as is Villa Aldobrandini in Frascati, and Villa Mondragone in Monte Porzio Catone, all of which can be visited. The ruins of the Tuscolo Archaeological Park are about 3 km from the villa and offer an incredible view over the entire area, up to the two volcanic lakes. And for lovers of underground tourism, two places rich in history and religion are not to be missed: the Ad Decimum and the San Senatore catacombs. The former are so called because they are located at the tenth mile of the ancient Via Latina and are among the best known in the area for the excellent state of conservation of the two tunnels dug into the tuff with about a thousand tombs inside them. The latter, on the other hand, are rich in frescoes and pagan and Christian sepulchral inscriptions. Even though we are in the hills, the Colli Albani, the sea is not far: less than an hour's drive away are the beautiful sandy beaches of the Tyrrhenian coast, from Torvaianica to Anzio to the beautiful dunes of Sabaudia and the Circeo National Park to the white pearl of Sperlonga. Basic services and shops can be found in Grottaferrata and in Frascati, both about 3 km from the villa. A large supermarket with other services is located about 800 m from the villa. The closest train station to the capital is in Frascati, with parking facilities (for a fee). Also nearby, and with parking facilities, is the Metro C terminus in Monte Compatri (Monte Compatri-Pantano station) and the Metro A Anagnina on the southern outskirts of the capital, both about 23 km from the villa.

It is also an ideal destination for sports and hiking lovers: we are in the Castelli Romani Regional Park with two volcanic lakes that have remained as evidence of the eruption of the Lazio volcano that gave life to this territory about 600,000 years ago. This territory has been under the dominion of the Papal State, as evidenced by the seat of the Vatican in Castel Gandolfo, larger even than the Vatican city in Rome. Former summer residence of the Pontiff, the Papal Palace, the Pontifical Villas and the Barberini Gardens are now open to the public.

The beautiful Abbey of San Nilo is less than 3 km from the villa, as is Villa Aldobrandini in Frascati, and Villa Mondragone in Monte Porzio Catone, all of which can be visited. The ruins of the Tuscolo Archaeological Park are about 3 km from the villa and offer an incredible view over the entire area, up to the two volcanic lakes. And for lovers of underground tourism, two places rich in history and religion are not to be missed: the Ad Decimum and the San Senatore catacombs.

Even though we are in the hills, the Colli Albani, the sea is not far: less than an hour's drive away are the beautiful sandy beaches of the Tyrrhenian coast, from Torvaianica to Anzio to the beautiful dunes of Sabaudia and the Circeo National Park to the white pearl of Sperlonga. Basic services and shops can be found in Grottaferrata and in Frascati, both about 3 km from the villa. A large supermarket with other services is located about 800 m from the villa. The closest train station to the capital is in Frascati, with parking facilities (for a fee). Also nearby, and with parking facilities, is the Metro C terminus in Monte Compatri (Monte Compatri-Pantano station) and the Metro A Anagnina on the southern outskirts of the capital, both about 23 km from the villa.

And to protect you in the case of damage caused to the property?

ZER0DEP COVER - by EuropAssistance (Mandatory) 49€ each reservation The new "Zer0Dep" guarantee protects you and allows you to have a tranquil holiday. Zer0Dep stands for "Zero deposit"; it is an insurance coverage developed in partnership with EuropAssistance which replaces the security deposit and which is therefore mandatory. The benefits of this guarantee are: you do not pay the security deposit on arrival: neither in cash nor by immobilising a substantial amount on your credit card limit;
  • you are protected in the case of eventual damage to the property caused accidentally during your stay (up to the maximum limit of 1500 euro);
  • you avoid any dispute on the responsibility of the damage and its quantification during check-out;
  • you can enjoy your villa holiday in greater tranquillity.
