Description

This four bedroom, totally renovated original farmhouse with a swimming pool is located in a sunny and dominant position just outside in the UNESCO World Heritage zone and the village of Calosso – and perhaps with the best views in all of Piemonte! Valleys with rows of vineyards, hilltop villages with church towers and then a never-ending arc of snowcapped mountains – not the mention the glowing sunsets.

 

You will be in walking distance to Calosso which is best known for growing the rare Gamba di Pernice grape. This grape almost disappeared, but thanks to passionate locals, it’s made a comeback – and the wine produced is lovely! Every year, the village puts on the lively Rapulé Fair, a festival marking the end of the grape harvest with music, local food, and plenty of wine tastings held in old cellars carved into the tufo rock.

 

Over the last couple of years, the farmhouse itself has been completely renovated by the current owners. During the renovation they have skilfully keep as many of the original features as possible while installing underfloor heating, photovoltaic solar panels, double glazing, through insulation as well as new kitchen and bathrooms. So here you have all the modern comforts you need but in an original Piemontese farmhouse. A beautiful saltwater swimming pool and a nice terrasse was also created during the renovation process.

 

The house itself is divided into two units: the main house and a small, attached apartment. The two units is connected by a door.

 

The main house consists of a modern kitchen with direct access to the pool and a large patio perfect for dining in the shade while enjoying the wonderful view, a dining area with brick vaulted ceilings and a small bathroom is also found on the ground floor.

A comfortable wide staircase leads from the ground floor to the two double bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor. One of the bedrooms has an attic/mezzanine above that can be easily furnished and used as an extra bedroom or study. Both rooms are bathed in light and have access to the spacious balcony that runs all along the house. Also on the first floor, a beautiful lounge/sitting room with large sliding glass windows onto the large terrace: something unique and special!

On the side of this main bouse you also find a technical room and the classic cantina with vaulted brick ceiling – a perfect wine cellar!

 

The small, attached apartment has its own separate entrance leading to a kitchen/living room, a bedroom and a bathroom which are all located on the ground floor. The main house and the apartment are already connected via a single door – so you can use the house a one or two units depending on your requirements.


The outdoor spaces, set behind automatic gates, includes easy to maintain gardens and terraces that offer spectacular vistas of the rolling hills. It would most likely be possible to replant part of the land with vines if required.

 

This truly is a lovely, compact, easy to maintain property with all the moderns benefits you expect – but in a classic setting. Come and have a look for yourself!
