House Rome (Italy)

Rome - Casal Palocco, in a quiet and peaceful location but very close to all services and the Cristoforo Colombo, we offer for sale a prestigious villa immersed in a well-kept private park of about 1000 square meters with access, both pedestrian and vehicular, from Via di Casal Palocco. The original design of the villa is the work of the engineer and architect Ugo Luccichenti and even today the property has maintained the main original features unchanged.The villa is developed on one level for an internal area of about 250 square meters and is characterized by a wise rationalization of space. The entrance hall leads directly to the centerpiece of the house: the representative living room of 90 sqm. Numerous windows radiate the space and allow 360-degree views of the park. Another peculiarity of this first room is the high gabled ceiling, with an important vertical momentum, at its highest point reaching almost 7 meters in height. From the living room, the property flows on one side to the sleeping area and on the other side to the service area.In the sleeping area we find three double bedrooms and two full bathrooms. All rooms have direct views of the pool and the park behind.On the opposite side, on the other hand, we find the kitchen and an additional service room with attached bathroom.The large private park, with exotic and tall trees, of about 1000 square meters together with the pool allow to enjoy moments of relaxation and recreation in absolute privacy and confidentiality.A large garage completes the property. Additional cars can also be conveniently parked along the driveway.The original project of the villa is the work of the famous engineer and architect Ugo Luccichenti, one of the greatest authorities of Roman residential architecture (but not only), from the 1930s. Specifically, we are talking about the so-called Villino Type 3, made in only four examples at the end of the 1950s. Luccichenti through a unique interpretation of the American type of residential architecture conceived four villas (each with small differences, but substantially similar) that presented a very elaborate typological study in plan and set on a large double-height hall with a thatched roof in addition to one-level accessory bodies separated into a sleeping area and a services area. We can speak of a real unicum in the panorama of Roman residential construction.Although in need of renovation, the property retains valuable elements such as large bright spaces, high ceilings, and an effective and functional interior layout, representing a unique opportunity for those who wish to customize their home by adapting it to personal living needs.
