La Casa a Santa Caterina

Set in a stunning panoramic location between the hills of Catignano and Pianella, this independent Panoramic Country House with Olive Grove offers agricultural land and a productive olive grove. The property is arranged over two levels, connected by both internal and external staircases. The ground floor features a central kitchen with fireplace, a spacious living room, and a second room with a spiral staircase leading to the upper level, which comprises two bedrooms and a bathroom with shower, also accessible from the outside.

A private courtyard lies between the house and the outbuilding, perfect for outdoor dining and gatherings. The outbuilding includes a garage, a wood-fired oven, and two stables, with the adjacent farmland gently sloping south. The property also features an olive grove of approximately thirty trees, located a short distance from the house, well-maintained and capable of producing enough oil for a family’s needs. Fruit trees surrounding the home enhance its authentic rural charm.

The house requires some minor modernization and non-structural maintenance, including system checks and roof tile cleaning. Windows have been recently upgraded with aluminum frames and double glazing, and heating is provided by a GPL gas system. The property is fully connected to electricity and water networks.

Positioned in an elevated, sunny location, the property enjoys wide-ranging views of the Maiella mountains and the hills of Santa Caterina. Despite its peaceful setting, it is easily accessible via a low-traffic secondary road. Excellent connections allow Pescara, the coast, and the mountains to be reached in around thirty minutes, while the towns of Pianella and Catignano, with shops and restaurants, are just a few kilometers away.

Catignano is a charming hilltop village in the province of Pescara, with a compact medieval center dominated by the Church of San Giovanni Battista. The surrounding countryside is famous for its high-quality wines and premium olive oil, with views stretching from the Adriatic Sea to the Maiella mountains.
