THIS PROPERTY IS NO LONGER FOR SALE

This nearly 200 years old farmhouse has been carefully and lovingly restored in keeping with its original use. No ‘faux’ details have been added. Much of the thick old stone walls have been cleaned and restored to their former glory contrasting beautifully with smooth plastered walls on the inside and adding character to the outside.

The typical vaulted ceilings are in original brickwork or have been kept plastered to keep rooms light. The large living room (40sq.m.) on the first floor showcases the beams of the new roof and a number of old stone walls, and has a sleek contemporary fire place. Adjacent to it is a large terrace. The 6 spacious bedrooms and 4+ bathrooms are divided between the ground and first floor.

On the ground floor there is a large entrance hall, family room and the large kitchen/dining room with its own fireplace. The kitchen leads on to the front garden and a terrace that can be covered. Bathrooms and kitchen are equipped with high quality Italian modern design fittings.

The property is fully central heated (solar and gas). The grounds of around 6000 sq. m. have been ‘landscaped’ naturally and are surrounded by vineyards. From early spring to late autumn the fruit and nut trees, indigenous shrubs and plants flower abundantly. A small herb garden, the many roses and a number of easily maintained borders add further atmosphere to the grounds and enhance the surroundings of the house.

At a short distance from the house the salt water swimming pool (15 x 4) is situated in its own enclosed garden. A large pergola offers shade from the sun, the brick walls seclusion from any wind. The house looks over the beautiful valley with the magnificent Alps as a backdrop. The area surrounding the pool has a stunning 360 degrees vista. The last range of hills before the Mediterranean can be seen on a clear day. The property can be enlarged with a (modern) guest house and there is the possibility to use agan the abandoned vineyard.

The house is suitable as a year round residence or holiday home. It can easily be divided into two units or three separate apartments. There is ample parking space.

The house is situated in one of the most beautiful and tranquil areas of the Langhe. The many roads that lead from the village offer easy and diverse access to Alba, Asti and Acqui Terme. The Asti-Cuneo motorway is close by, making the travel distance to Torino around 1 hour, Milan 1 ½ hours and Savona 1 hour.

The village can be reached on foot (10 minutes) and has a small supermarket and restaurant. Within a 15 minutes’ drive you will find many restaurants from pizzerias to Michelin star restaurants and not to forget many highly acclaimed wine houses.
