Villa Calgiano is a unique country house with private pool and open views across the valleys towards hilltop towns and the majestic Gransasso mountain range.
The villa is designed to take full advantage of the gorgeous views and peaceful private location. The garden surrounds the house on all sides and the plot sits in the centre of 24 acres of land, as such it is a very private home. The villa is accessed by a small country lane, but is just ten minutes drive from the sandy beaches, bars and beachfront restaurants, ideally situated for either beach, pool, mountain or country pass-times.
Villa Calgiano was designed for our three families to share, so it is ideally suited to large families and family group holidays. The 6 bedroom villa is modern, light and spacious and designed over 3 floors, with a sun terrace created on each level to enjoy the different aspects from its elevated location. The covered loggia on ground and first floors provide a shaded walkway that keeps the living area and bedrooms cool from the heat of the sun.
There is good connectivity – WiFi is available with reception both inside the villa and outside on the pool terrace and on the shaded ground floor verandas. The Smart TV accesses the usual platforms and channels and you will find traditional family games for indoor entertainment. Some outdoor games and pool toys are available also.
The nearby village of Mosciano Sant' Angelo provides all amenities, as well as a weekly Wednesday market with local produce and Porchetta vans. During July and August Mosciano and the surrounding villages host various summer festas, food nights & concerts, all just 5 minutes drive away. There is a fabulous traditional restaurant just a short stroll down the lane with fantastic local dishes and views across Giulianova to the sea.
There's a pool terrace leading from the dining room, and down onto the pool deck. To the left, a covered archway providing spacious, shaded outdoor eating area. From the kitchen is another small covered terrace providing the perfect early morning sunny breakfast spot!
The 1st floor roof terrace has views to the west, east and south and onto the pool and gardens. The roof terrace on the 2nd floor enjoys the peace and quiet away from the pool to gaze at be relaxed by the countryside to the west and north.
Cross the central lawn with a shady olive tree and leafy Mulberry tree - which are gorgeous spots to lay beneath and rest after lunch or any time of day! The BBQ area on the other side of the lawn adjacent to the old farm house has both traditional and Abruzese Spiedini BBQs, and plenty of space to enjoy an evening meal outdoors.
The 12m x 4m pool is for your private use (not artificially heated). There are ample places from which to enjoy the pool: the wooden deck, banquette seating around the south side of the pool and the English lawn with foam pool mattresses. 7 pool loungers, 8 mattress foams, 8 seater pool side sofa and 4 seater garden sofa are for you to enjoy the outside spaces in full.
Out door eating and entertaining family and friends is catered for by an 18 seater outdoor dining table, 6 full length bench seating, an additional small table and 2 chairs, and 2 baby highchairs if requited.
The large, well-equiped and spacious kitchen has everything you need to cater for your group and feel at home. The kitchen breakfast bar seats four people for company in the kitchen while the chefs are at work! This leads to the bright and airy dining room with its pool and garden views stretching over to the old town of Mosciano Sant' Angelo on the opposite hill top. The kitchen enjoys a second patio onto a small terrace that is shared with direct access from the ground floor bedroom. This lovely spot is a great place for coffee and breakfast in the early morning sun and quiet contemplation.
Feel free to help yourselves to the harvest of fruit from the trees that surrounding the garden, these ripen at varying weeks in the summer season - cherries, peaches, apricots, greengage, a variety of figs and pears.
We hope you love the villa, location and restful and rejuvenating space as much as we and our other guests do!
