Historic farmhouse among the hills of Asti

Just outside Asti, this Piedmontese farmhouse dating back to the late 17th century still retains the authentic character of the ancient farmhouses of Monferrato. The property preserves numerous original architectural features of the Piedmontese rural tradition, such as its characteristic exposed-brick vaulted ceilings, wooden beams and exceptionally thick masonry walls. It has undergone careful renovation involving both the interiors and the technological systems, and is arranged in two separate yet connected wings. The layout allows the farmhouse to be envisioned either as a two-family residence or as a main house with an independent guest house, ideal for those wishing to develop a charming hospitality business. Upon entering, the hallway leads to the living area, comprising a spacious living room, a bathroom, a study and a further sitting room opening onto the outdoors and the private courtyard, where the above-ground pool provides refreshing relief during the warmer months. The floor is completed by a utility room and two large ancillary rooms, intended as a cellar and storage room, providing additional service and storage space. On the first floor, the staircase leads to the large living room with dining area. A hallway connects it to the eat-in kitchen and the charming enclosed terrace, a highly appealing space full of character, perfect for lunches, dinners and convivial gatherings. The floor also includes a bedroom, a study, a bathroom and a further apartment comprising a multifunctional room with living area, kitchen and sleeping area, completed by an en-suite bathroom. The second wing of the property is arranged over several levels. The ground floor offers a kitchen with dining area, a bathroom, a storage room and a spacious living room enhanced by a wood-burning fireplace. From the living room, a short flight of stone steps leads to the hallway and a generous bedroom with en-suite bathroom. The first floor contains a small gym, a bedroom and a bathroom. A further staircase leads to the second floor, where there are two storage rooms, suitable for use as ancillary and service spaces.
