Description
A Sunlit Sanctuary in the Heart of Lazio
Imagine waking up to the gentle rustle of leaves and the soft chirping of birds, as the first rays of the sun filter through your window. Welcome to 'Casale del Sole', a quintessential country home nestled in the serene landscapes of Graffignano, Italy. This property is more than just a house; it's a gateway to a lifestyle steeped in tranquility, sustainability, and timeless Italian charm.
A Journey Through Time and Design
Originally constructed in the 1950s, this home stands as a testament to the rich agricultural heritage of the Tiber Valley. Its classic rural architecture, characterized by a robust parallelepiped structure, has been lovingly preserved and enhanced over the decades. The late 1970s saw a transformation, turning this residence into a refined weekend retreat, complete with period details like 'sbruffato' plaster walls and a built-in sofa that echo the elegance of a bygone era.
Modern Comforts Meet Traditional Charm
While the home retains its historical allure, it has been thoughtfully updated to meet modern standards of comfort and efficiency. Recent upgrades include a comprehensive energy efficiency overhaul, featuring a 6 kW photovoltaic system, new insulation, and a state-of-the-art condensing boiler. These enhancements not only reduce the carbon footprint but also ensure year-round comfort, making it an ideal second home or a sustainable primary residence.
A Day in the Life at Casale del Sole
Picture yourself enjoying a leisurely breakfast on the expansive porch, enveloped by the scent of blooming flowers and the sight of rolling hills. The day unfolds with endless possibilities: a stroll through the vibrant local markets, a visit to nearby historical sites, or simply basking in the sun-drenched garden. As evening falls, gather with loved ones around the fireplace, sharing stories and laughter, as the stars twinkle above.

From the rich culinary traditions of Lazio, featuring hearty pastas and robust wines, to the cultural allure of nearby Viterbo and Orvieto, there's something for everyone.
