Features

Description

If you are after location, location and location – this is the place! With 270-degree unobstructed views of rolling hills, snow-capped mountains and burning red sunsets this is a wonderful place. Once renovated you will have a lovely home with 3 to 4 bedrooms in a highly desirable location.

 

The property, originally erected by a local Count, is a semidetached two storey farmhouse located in the very core of the UNESCO heritage zone. It is built on the edge of a small hilltop just outside the village of Noche.

 

The current building

The property, is a structurally sound farmhouse erected in brick, partly plastered, with a roof of terracotta tiles. Windows and shutters are wooden with single glazing.

 

Ground floor. At present you find a kitchen and a living room with the typical Piemontese vaulted ceilings on the ground floor. In addition, you also have a good sized and very old brick cantina (wine cellar) with high vaulted ceilings and most of the old wooden wine barrels still in place. Completing the ground floor, you have a large unconverted stable and a storage room at the back.

 

First floor. Up the old staircase, built in the original Lucerna stone, you will find a good-sized bedroom to the left an old bathroom and a very large bedroom to the right. A further very large, light and airy room (currently used as a bedroom) with the most beautiful double vaulted ceiling is accessed via the open first floor balcony. Completing the first floor you have a large, unconverted hayloft featuring exposed wooden roof beams

 

Land. Approx. 10,000 sq.mt. of private hillside (formerly a small vineyard) offering sweeping views.

 

A fantastic project

Subject to building permission, one of several ideas would be to turn the entire ground floor into one single open space by incorporating the current stable and storage room. This would allow for the creation of vast glass walls / doors and for creating a living space with simply stunning views.

 

The idea is further to turn the current cantina into an open kitchen which, with its century old, vaulted ceiling, would create a truly unique kitchen / dining space with views through the living area towards the mountains. A large open central fireplace would create an atmosphere not found elsewhere.

 

On the first floor an idea would be to incorporate the current hayloft creating 3 to 4 ensuite bedrooms, a small library / office / TV lounge – all with amazing views). On this first floor you could incorporate visible wooden roof beams almost throughout.

 

Outside one could create a stunning hilltop swimming pool with good sized terraces.  The layout of the landscape also offers the opportunity to create an outdoor kitchen with BBQ and a pizza oven. 

 

Power and water are already installed. Mains gas (for heating) is available just outside the premises and can easily be connected. Drainage is, as always with these old farmhouses, via septic tank.

 

This truly is a fantastic project, so we recommend early viewing of this unique property.
