Wonderful Castle For Sale Near Rome
This luxury castle dating back to the 10th century is for sale in a high position on the hill of San Polo dei Cavalieri, in the province of Rome.
Initially the property belonged to the Knights of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and subsequently passed into the hands of the Roman monastery of St Paul Outside the Walls; only in the 12th century did it take the name of San Polo dei Cavalieri and the village was historically a junction between towns of the area.
After passing into the hands of historical noble families, it became the seat of the Accademia dei Lincei in 1603, hosting famous figures such as Galileo Galilei.
This luxury castle measures 2,000 sqm and has been subject to intensive restoration over the years. Internally there are several reception rooms and dining rooms with frescoes and big windows that illuminate the rooms, a private consecrated chapel, a cellar with stone walls that are perfect for preserving wine, and seven double suites with bathrooms.
The real jewel of this property for sale is its rooftop terrace, which offers breathtaking 360-degree views over the village of San Polo dei Cavalieri and the surrounding hills as far as Rome.
