Cocchi is a small borgo of only a few residents, surrounded by nature and open countryside. The area also carries an interesting historical identity: for centuries, this part of Veroli lay close to the old frontier between the Papal States and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, a borderland later connected with the stories of brigandage and figures such as Brigante Chiavone. Today, the atmosphere is peaceful and rural, but the sense of history is still present in the stone houses, narrow lanes and surrounding landscape. Despite its quiet setting, the property is only a few minutes by car from the town of Veroli, with shops, cafés, restaurants and all main services. The entrance to the fast road towards Rome is also nearby, with the capital reachable in approximately one hour by car. The house is an old stone residence, fully restored in 2005. The roof and floors were rebuilt, the stone walls were restored and exposed, and the systems were completely renewed. The property measures approximately 100 sqm and is arranged over two levels. On the ground floor, there is a spacious entrance with a restored wooden security door, followed by a kitchen and dining area with an antique stone fireplace. Upstairs, a bright living room with large windows opens towards the surrounding valley, offering wide and beautiful countryside views. On this level there are two bedrooms, one double and one single, a small storage room, and a bathroom with shower. Outside, the house has a large courtyard with an ancient bread and pizza oven, perfect for outdoor dining. From the courtyard there is access to a technical room/cellar of approximately 15 sqm, which also includes a small guest powder room, useful when eating or entertaining outside. There is parking available beside the house. The property is heated either by Lpg gas tank or by pellet stove, both connected to the radiators. It has public water and a sealed septic tank. The windows are new, in wood with double glazing, and fitted with external security grilles. A peaceful restored stone home in a historic borderland hamlet, ideal as a countryside retreat, holiday home or full-time residence for those who want authenticity and silence, without being far from Veroli, Rome and everyday connections.
