Historic Castle With Expansive Gardens And Ten Bedrooms

About the Property

A historic castle masterpiece, the Castle of Torre Alfina, constructed in 1880, spans approximately 4,900 sqm of interiors and is set within 1,000 sqm of meticulously designed Italian-style gardens. Nestled in the heart of a medieval hamlet on the border between Lazio and Umbria, this property embodies centuries of history and elegance, commanding a presence that has defined this corner of Tuscia since the Early Middle Ages. The castle's interior unfolds through 35 principal rooms, including an expansive fresco gallery adorned with historical and allegorical themes, coffered ceilings in inlaid wood, and marble floors that shift in color underfoot. The piano nobile, or noble floor, features ten bedrooms, a formal dining room, grand reception halls, and a library, all illuminated by tall, round-arched windows that frame breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. The upper levels reveal characterful attic rooms, providing additional sleeping quarters and storage space. The gardens are a treasure, featuring a central fountain, labyrinthine hedges, and a series of enfilade rooms that extend the formality of the garden indoors. The property also includes game rooms, fireside reading rooms, and an open courtyard, creating an atmosphere that feels less like a residence and more like a work of art meant to be inhabited.
