Luxury Villa With Tennis Court And Spa On The Outskirts Of Rome

In Morlupo, a charming village on the outskirts of Rome, this extraordinary 970-sqm villa with 6,000 sqm of private parkland is for sale. It is a true architectural masterpiece, where meticulous attention to detail, the highest-quality materials, and masterful construction combine to create a unique estate. The property, consisting of 4 buildings spread over 3 levels, includes 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, and offers spaces dedicated to wellness, sport and conviviality of an extraordinary standard.

Morlupo is a charming village located on the outskirts of Rome, in the Roman countryside, about 30 kilometres from the capital, along the historic Via Flaminia, which led from Rome to the Adriatic Sea. The town is situated in a panoramic position on the rolling hills that characterise the landscape of the Tiber Valley, offering a view that stretches from the surrounding countryside to the Sabini Mountains. The area is appreciated for its strategic location: immersed in the tranquillity of the Lazio countryside, with wide green expanses, olive groves and centuries-old woods, it allows you to live far from the traffic and hustle and bustle of the city while remaining perfectly connected to Rome via the Via Flaminia and the main roads. The area is characterised by unspoilt rural landscapes, where historic villas, farmhouses and prestigious residences alternate with agricultural land and nature reserves. Its proximity to Castelnuovo di Porto, Riano and the amenities of northern Rome makes Morlupo an ideal location for those seeking privacy, space and a high quality of life without sacrificing the convenience of reaching the capital in just a few minutes. The climate is Mediterranean, with hot summers and mild winters, and the area offers numerous opportunities for outdoor activities, nature walks and direct contact with the most authentic Roman countryside.

This wonderful property consists of four separate structures, including a manor house, and covers a total of 970 square metres. The architecture is inspired by the tradition of medieval castles, reinterpreted in a contemporary style: the walls sloping like buttresses, the windows with grilles reminiscent of fortified architecture, and the roofs and wooden pergolas with antique tiles create a highly appealing and picturesque ensemble. Inside, stone fireplaces, exemplary chestnut wood panelling in the living area with exquisitely crafted joints and shelves testify to the craftsmanship and use of authentic and precious materials. The different volumes of the building intertwine to form a harmonious composition: the two-storey main body, which houses bedrooms and bathrooms, fits together with a single-storey orthogonal part dedicated to living functions. The two bodies rotate around the staircase, which, on the first floor, overlooks the outside from a small tower, a distinctive element of the architecture.

The beautiful and bright open-plan living area enjoys views of the park and swimming pool, creating a luxurious, continuous living space. Big windows harmoniously connect the interior and exterior, providing brightness and openness to the surrounding greenery. The flooring is unique: it resembles oak parquet in shape, but the wonderful golden reflections are given by the uniqueness of the stone imported in blocks from Morocco, cut in the quarries of Tivoli with skill to make the veins look like wood, laid and polished like a parquet of sublime workmanship. The radiators are true works of art: Bigtubes from Holland and splendid chrome elements reminiscent of floating stems. In addition to the bathrooms and various rooms, the basement houses the wellness area and gym: a sauna, a hammam and a relaxation area with soft colours, teak flooring and blue glass windows. The gym, surrounded by mirrors, houses an indoor counter-current swimming pool, an exclusive gem for daily wellness. Also in the basement, a restaurant kitchen with a wood-fired oven and a convivial room with stone arches, splayed windows and a secret wine cellar complete the hospitality areas. Right next to the swimming pool, a courtyard on the lower level offers a view of the wellness area, accessible via an external suspended staircase in steel and quartzite, which also leads to the guest changing rooms, finished with unique Spanish enamel tiles.

The 6,000-sqm park deserves a special mention: laid out in the style of an Italian garden, it is home to centuries-old olive trees that reach over 16 metres in height and over 2 metres in trunk circumference, unique specimens introduced after exhaustive research in Europe. The shaded areas created by tall centuries-old trees and the presence of a swimming pool and a multi-purpose tennis and football court complete the outdoor spaces, perfect for leisure and sport.

This villa for sale on the outskirts of Rome is an extraordinarily prestigious and unique residence, perfect for those who want to live in the capital in a setting of absolute privacy, architectural beauty and uncompromising comfort.
