This property has been in the family for generations, originally belonging to my husband’s grand-aunt before being passed down to us. What I love most about this neighborhood is its rich history and vibrant atmosphere. You can step right out of the front door and walk directly to the iconic Colosseum, where emperors once ruled the arena—it’s a breathtaking experience every time.
One of the best things about this area is its proximity to many of Rome’s most famous sites. You’re within walking distance of landmarks like the Roman Forum, Palatine Hill, and the Basilica of San Giovanni, all while being just far enough from the city’s chaos to enjoy a more relaxed, local atmosphere. It truly feels like the heart of Rome, but with a peaceful charm that allows you to experience the authentic side of the city.
This neighborhood offers a delightful blend of ancient history and modern life. It’s very safe, perfect for leisurely strolls through streets lined with beautiful architecture. You can also escape to Villa Celimontana, a hidden gem of a park where locals unwind in nature. The area is filled with charming shops, authentic Roman trattorias, open-air markets, and lively wine bars, offering both day and night experiences.
Well-connected yet peaceful, this neighborhood is the perfect balance between history and modernity, allowing you to live like a local while being surrounded by the best Rome has to offer.
