Description

Close your eyes and imagine a new life: relaxing days surrounded by greenery, an evocative view, dinners with family and friends, and the beauty of a vineyard from which to produce your own wine. It feels like being on holiday, yet you are at home. Crossing the entrance gate of this extraordinary estate, you immediately feel as though you have reached a retreat where the stress of everyday life can be forgotten.

The property, unique of its kind, consists of several independent units, allowing multiple families to live together in complete harmony while enjoying shared spaces for socialising and private areas whenever needed: the historic main residence, with a spectacular living room and semi-circular terrace offering a striking panorama, shaded by a magnificent, centuries-old horse chestnut tree; and three intimate, independent and self-contained residences—true guest houses with kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, fully furnished with great taste and ready to be enjoyed.

There is also a badminton court, set in a commanding position at the top of the approximately 6,000-square-metre vineyard, planted with Barbera, Merlot and Dolcetto, with scope for expansion. The estate covers approximately 1.7 hectares in total, divided among gardens, vineyard, vegetable garden, orchard, hazelnut grove and oak woodland: a true immersion in nature, further enhanced by a nature trail through the most wooded area.

At the lower end of the vineyard, nestled between the main residence and the outbuildings, there is space for a large infinity pool, with excellent exposure and spectacular sunset views, as shown in the photographic rendering included in the property brochure.

Further features worth highlighting include the cellar with stainless-steel tanks and a romantic infernot carved into the original ancient stone; the panoramic barbecue area in the upper woodland; and the recreational area beneath the centuries-old cedars, with a panoramic bocce court.

In the shade of the horse chestnut tree, overlooking unforgettable sunsets, there is space for a romantic orangery to be enjoyed in every season, continuing the dialogue between indoors and outdoors. The image shown is only a photographic rendering; the structure can be created according to personal tastes and requirements.

A property immersed in nature, rich in hidden corners, authenticity and privacy, in an enchanting setting that absolutely deserves to be seen and experienced in person. The estate is ideal as a retreat, for holistic seminars, yoga practices and nature trails immersed in the peace and harmony of nature; but also as a wonderful haven for a large family who enjoys sharing many spaces while always retaining independence and privacy. A marvellous world of its own.

Location: Tagliolo Monferrato, Piedmont

Nestled in the gentle hills of Tagliolo Monferrato, the property occupies an elevated, terraced position, bathed in sunlight from dawn to dusk and overlooking the confluence of two rivers flowing between the ancient villages below. The land, of alluvial origin, is exceptionally fertile and well drained thanks to its high limestone content and the particular care taken to ensure the natural flow of water. It lies at the end of an ancient road, now pedestrian-only and owned by the estate, which once connected the Republic of Genoa and the Kingdom of Sardinia. According to local historical societies and the aristocratic neighbouring families, the residence served in those centuries as an inn for travellers.

The area, situated between the hills of Gavi, Monferrato and the Ligurian coast, is surrounded by castles, DOCG vineyards, renowned family-run wineries, enchanting historic villages, and several national-interest nature parks offering stunning views, ideal for short visits or walks lasting several days. It also boasts numerous golf courses, including prestigious 36-hole facilities, historic trattorias and gourmet restaurants, several riding stables, organic farms, authentic hilltop dairies and major sports complexes. Yet it is only half an hour from the historic centres of Genoa and Alessandria, and from Arenzano, Varazze and Albisola on the western Ligurian Riviera. The French border, Monte Carlo and the Côte d’Azur are just 90 minutes away. Genoa Airport is 40 minutes away, Milan Malpensa International Airport 75 minutes, and Nice Côte d’Azur Airport in France 120 minutes, while the nearest railway station is only 10 minutes away.

The first shops and restaurants are just a 10-minute walk away in the ancient village of Tagliolo Monferrato, with its beautiful castle, where patronal, seasonal and food festivals of national importance are held throughout the year. The surrounding hills also offer a wealth of B&Bs, relais, farm stays and prestigious four- and five-star establishments with spa facilities. Italy’s most important designer outlet is just 25 minutes away.
