It’s not by accident that this Italian farmhouse near Rome seems to ooze antiquity and charm. The ivy-covered home occupies a bucolic site where historical artifacts dating to 200 B.C. have been uncovered.
Surrounded by the Appia Antica Park, also known as the Appian Way Regional Park, the 5,000-square-meter (about 1.25-acre) property is hedged with rosemary and filled mature trees, an olive orchard and a vineyard. Formal gardens, a fountain and a trellis-covered outdoor area for dining sit near the house.
The grounds include formal gardens and an orchard.
