Historic retreat between nature and tradition

In Castagneto Po, in Turin’s picturesque hills, just over 35 minutes from Turin’s city centre, this historic property, dating from the 16th century, was originally built as an old residence for accommodating monks. The building preserves and celebrates the Piedmontese tradition, helping to maintain the authenticity and charm of the location. The property welcomes guests in an atmosphere of complete tranquillity, surrounded by a green oasis. The impressive swimming pool, designed as a natural pond (10 x 5 m), together with the olive tree and the numerous plants enriching the garden, creates an ambience of rare harmony, where nature and history coexist in perfect balance. The entrance to the main house leads on the right to the cosy TV room, with characteristic exposed-brick vaulted ceilings, and to the dining room, which connects directly to the traditional Piedmontese crutin. This level also includes a guest cloakroom and, to the left of the entrance, the kitchen, which opens onto the living room with a fireplace and beautiful original vaulted ceilings. The bright veranda, the true focal point of the living area, leads to the panoramic terrace at the rear, overlooking the surrounding greenery. The upper floor comprises the sleeping area, with three bedrooms, a balcony offering pleasant views of the garden and pool, and a bathroom. The property also includes an independent apartment accessible from outside, comprising an entrance hall, living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. This area, too, retains original architectural features, such as the characteristic vaulted ceilings, highlighting its historical value. The property is completed by a double garage with external access, approximately one hectare of land, and the old henhouse, situated opposite the area intended for the vegetable garden and representing another testament to the property’s history and rural purpose.
