Description

Imagine a farmhouse with a courtyard shaped like a horseshoe as if it wants to embrace a small enchanted world. In the heart of the courtyard, protected by the 3 stone wings, stands a flourishing olive tree with its silvery leaves caressing the air. All around, the property opens like a curtain at the edge of the small village of Sessame, amidst the gentle hills of the Asti Langa, where the village ends and the poetry of nature begins. Just turn around to see the fascinating ruins of an ancient 9th-century castle watching from above like a sentinel of time, and then lose yourself beyond, among soft valleys and the alpine chain that seems suspended between sky and earth. Once, the property operated as a B&B with rooms and suites and a dining area with a professional kitchen. From the old service structures and the barn, now converted into a spacious and bright multipurpose hall, the house has preserved the soul of its origins. The panoramic terrace, accessible from the garden, seems like an invitation to stop time, letting it flow slowly beyond the horizon. In one of the two wings, on the first floor, the master apartment unfolds: a bright living area with an open space kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom, in addition to a small charming terrace perfect for enjoying moments of relaxation. The terraced garden, which opens like a natural balcony over the valley, seems designed to become the setting for a spectacular infinity pool, as illustrated in the photographic render. Beside it, the old chicken coop, ready to transform into a practical pool house with a spa area, adds a touch of rural poetry to a place already rich in magic. Due to the layout of the renovation done in the '90s, the property is perfect to revert to being a hospitality business (B&B, Country House, Boutique Hotel, Event Location), but it can also be easily converted into a private residence for one or more families. The infinity pool is a photographic render meant only for inspiration and is not included in the price.

Location: Sessame, Piedmont

Sessame is a small hill village, of rural origin, in the Alta Langa of Asti, ideal for slow and immersive tourism in the most unspoiled nature. It rises among vineyards, hazelnut groves, and dense woods, in a natural position of great harmony that offers open views over the surrounding valleys and the Alpine arc. Its historic center retains the medieval layout, with narrow streets, stone houses, and an ancient atmosphere. Dominating the village, in a panoramic position, are the evocative ruins of the Del Carretto castle, dating back to the 9th century, an ancient fortress for controlling the territory. Its surviving walls and fragmented towers are a scenic landmark and tell the feudal history of the area, offering visitors a setting of great charm, especially at night, when they are illuminated. Today, the site of the ancient castle is a suggestive panoramic point, offering a truly breathtaking view, and an equipped tourist area. Despite being a very quiet village, Sessame has essential services, such as the post office and some municipal offices, a pizzeria and a delicious restaurant, 4 wineries, 2 farm stays, a padel court, a soccer field, in addition to numerous nature trails and trekking routes among the vineyards. All other services, such as supermarkets, shops, schools, or healthcare facilities, are available in nearby centers, particularly in the municipalities of Monastero Bormida, Bistagno, and Acqui Terme, located within a travel radius of between 7 and 13 km. Sessame is also a strategic starting point for excursions, food and wine tours, and cycling itineraries, convenient to the destinations of Monferrato and Langhe. The quality of life, the silence of the landscapes, and the proximity to the main centers of Langa and Monferrato make it an ideal destination for those seeking authenticity, nature, and history, in a setting of rare beauty.
