Villa of Silence and Fruits – Scerni (CH)
There are places where time seems to slow down, where the scent of the earth and fruits fills the air and the silence is broken only by the song of birds or the rustling of the wind among the trees. This villa in Scerni, nestled between gentle hills and expanses of green, is one of those places: an authentic refuge where you can rediscover the natural rhythm of life, without giving up comfort and space.
The main residence develops on a single floor, welcoming and bright, composed of an entrance, hallway, dining area connected to a kitchenette, a spacious living room, two double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a bathroom. All rooms are equipped with heating and air conditioning, and the dining room features a fireplace that can be restored.
From the living area, there is internal access to both the attic, which is windowed and in a raw state — a space that can become a study, hobby area, or additional bedrooms — and to the semi-basement, the true convivial heart of the house. Here we find a very large tavern-style room with a kitchen area, a large cellar, and a bathroom, an ideal environment for gathering with friends and family during winter days or for spending cool summer evenings.
The garden, well-kept and lush, frames the villa with ornamental plants and fruit trees: mandarins, oranges, grapefruit, lemons, pomegranates, figs, cherry, plums, grapes, and much more. The external pergola offers a shaded corner perfect for dining outdoors or parking the car. The property is completed by a well for irrigation, storage rooms for tools, and a laundry area.
Features: all rooms are equipped with radiators in addition to the air conditioning present in the apartment; in the semi-basement, there is both a pellet stove and air conditioning. The house is equipped with a non-functional alarm system; emergency generator; external lighting; electric gate.
A villa that offers harmony and freedom. An authentic refuge, where nature is a living presence, where every season has its scents, and where simply opening a window makes you feel far from the world — while still being close to everything.

Mild climate, gentle hills as a backdrop, typical dishes, and culture: all of this is Scerni, a town of just over 3,000 inhabitants in the province of Chieti, in the Montagna Community of Medio Vastese. A historic town, home to the D'Ercole Real Estate Agency, Scerni hosts a quiet and industrious community that enjoys a lush and orderly surrounding nature, a sign of a strong agricultural vocation and a tenacious and fruitful bond with the land. Scerni is indeed well known for the production of cured meats, wine, oil, and Ventricina, an award-winning typical salami from the Vastese region, which has gained national prominence thanks to the repeated conquest of the title of Best Salami in Italy over the years.
