Incredible Piedmont Savoy castle in beautiful location
SOMETIMES, very occasionally, something special comes along. This is one of those rare properties. A Piedmont castle, originally dating back to 1153CE (AD), all in a location that is not only beautiful but also very convenient.
Price is approximatley $2,400,000 or £1,540,000 - price is negotiable.
THE SALE PRICE INCLUDES NEARLY ALL OF THE FURNITURE AND HISTORIC PIECES.
PURCHASE TAX IS EXTREMELY LOW (relative to the value of the property).
Yearly tax (ICI) is currently €180 a year.
The castle includes living accommodation, a tower with incredible views, historic prison and 800m tunnel, music room and church. The land around the castle is approximately 46,000 sqm and includes a private park and herb garden.
The views from the castle are simply stunning. The castle seems to hang suspended over the extraordinary deep ravines below. We believe this is one of the best castles you will ever find in this region. The castle is in excellent condition and has an amazing history.
The castle is located in the heart of the Piedmont (Piemonte) wine region. One source describes the location as 'a real garden of Eden for naturalists and geologists'. The location is also extremely convenient being located just a 40 minute drive from Turin and 20 minutes from Alba. The main autostrada for Turin, Milan & Genoa (A21) is just 20 minutes drive. Whilst in a rural and scenic location it is only minutes from main towns with everything you could need, including - shops, restaurants, wine stores, open markets, etc.
The sale of the castle includes nearly all of the furniture and historical pieces. Please contact us for more details.
Purchase tax for the property is extremely low as it is registered as an historic building.
(The day we photographed the castle the Alps were not visible. On a clear day the view is even more spectacular).
