Description
Crossing the entrance gate of this extraordinary estate, the feeling is that of having reached a refuge immersed in the peace and beauty of the surrounding landscape, where you can forget the stress of everyday life. In a dominant and secluded position, with a scenic view over the gentle hills of Nizza Monferrato, the finely restored property is surrounded by a planted garden dominated by a majestic century-old horse chestnut tree, and by extensive land spanning approximately 6.5 hectares (about 4 hectares planted with Barbera, Nizza and Cortese vineyards, while the remaining portion is harmoniously divided among arable land, orchard, vegetable garden, hazelnut grove and woodland), offering a natural setting of rare completeness. The renovation was carried out with great care and respect for the area’s typical architectural features, enhancing authentic elements such as exposed brick vaults, the charming barn with rustic brick windows, and the elegant portico, perfect for relaxing outdoors in total privacy. The farmhouse currently consists of two main parts (the main residence and the caretakers’ apartment), with separate yet connecting entrances, but it can easily be converted back into a single home. The main residence on three levels is arranged as follows: hallway with staircase, living room with fireplace; dining room, large built-in masonry kitchen with island, vestiaire, guest bathroom and small cellar; on the first floor: four bedrooms and a generous loggia terrace converted from the original barn; in the attic, storage space and a practical laundry room. The guest house, accessible from outside, comprises a large bedroom and two en-suite bathrooms with shower. Completing the property are an outdoor parking area for four cars and a garage with an adjoining bathroom. In the spacious garden overlooking the town of Nizza Monferrato, there is ample space for a large infinity pool. Last but not least: just 200 meters from the main house, on land within the property, the estate also includes a large storage building for the agricultural equipment used to cultivate the vineyards, a property with great potential, convertible into a wine cellar or a guest annex.
A charming property, ideal for those who wish to live in an authentic place within the UNESCO World Heritage of Piedmont, panoramic and full of character, in the heart of one of the most sought-after areas of Monferrato.

Location: Nizza Monferrato, Piedmont
Situated between the cities of Alba, Asti and Alessandria, Nizza Monferrato is an important agricultural and commercial hub in the heart of Monferrato, one of Italy’s best-known wine-producing areas worldwide, especially for red wines and sparkling wines. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2014 for its landscape assets and for Barbera wine, of which it is the undisputed capital. “Nizza è Barbera” is the title of the annual cultural and food-and-wine event held every May, in which the star is Barbera d’Asti DOCG, the local wine renowned in Italy and abroad. Barbera also gives rise to the prized Nizza DOCG, a wine made from 100% Barbera and aged for at least 18 months. Nizza is a human-scale town, set among wonderful hills and ancient churches, nature trails and delicacies, where even the vineyard rows frame open-air sculptures and installations. Its beautiful historic center, medieval in its oldest part, is triangular in shape with districts laid out in straight lines and boasts a substantial presence of historic buildings of remarkable value. Its extraordinary lands are reflected not only in its wines but also in the equally rich and varied local cuisine: from fine meats to handmade pasta, to excellent cheeses—tome and robiola—ending with delicious traditional desserts. A terroir rich in history and tradition, “secret” for a long time, now finally ready to be discovered and a sound investment for the future.
