MEDIEVAL CASTLE
Vacone, Sabina (Province of Rieti, Lazio)
Historic structure in the hills of the Sabina region, approximately 60 km northeast of Rome.
Located in the center of the village of Vacone, this medieval castle dates back to the 13th century and sits in a landscape characterized by olive groves and vineyards. The property features typical elements of fortified noble residences of the period, including original stone walls, towers, vaulted rooms, inner courtyards and fireplaces. A small private window offers a direct view into the adjacent church.
The total floor area is approximately 1,846 sqm, spread over multiple levels. The building requires complete restoration, though the historical structure remains largely intact. It offers a solid base for a renovation that respects the original character while adapting to contemporary use.
From its elevated position, the property offers expansive views over the Sabina valley. The village of Vacone is small and well-preserved, with traditional architecture and a quiet, rural atmosphere. Proximity to Rome and good transport connections make the location suitable for various purposes.
The castle may be adapted for private residential use or repurposed for cultural, hospitality or commercial activities. Technical assistance and support for planning and restoration are available for English speaking prospects upon request.
