Description
Nestled on the first moraine hills, this late-19th-century residence rises like an ancient stronghold, proudly dominating the surrounding countryside. It stands out for its imposing stone base, which underscores its architectural significance and enhances its privileged setting, giving it a striking, scenic presence. From here, the view unfolds in a succession of vistas stretching to the horizon. The property interprets with refinement the eclectic taste of the period, blending Neo-Renaissance elements with Art Nouveau details. The residence has two entrances, positioned on opposite sides of the building. On the south front, lush jasmine frames the access, naturally and elegantly inviting one to cross the threshold. The interiors reveal at first glance the home’s authentic character: ceilings with exposed wooden beams, terracotta floors, Castellamonte majolica stoves, and refined architectural details bear witness to the house’s charm and history. The bright living area and dining room open onto the terrace overlooking the hills, an ideal space for outdoor lunches and dinners immersed in the quiet of nature. This level is completed by the kitchen, with a large and functional pantry, and a guest bathroom. The wooden staircase leads to the upper floor, where the evocative main hall, bathed in natural light thanks to large windows, hosts the dining area and an intimate corner for reading or conversation. From here there is direct access to the panoramic terrace, where the eye takes in the surrounding landscape. The sleeping area includes two bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, as well as the laundry room. In the basement, a spacious cellar preserves the residence’s original character intact. The large fireplace enhances its atmosphere and, thanks to generous proportions and original architectural elements, this space offers interesting restoration possibilities, becoming an area of great charm. The level is completed by the ancient icehouse, a valuable testament to the property’s history. Outside, the residence is enhanced by a courtyard paved in Luserna stone, embellished with a small garden and a portico with brick columns that harmoniously echoes the details of the exterior façade. In front of the house lies a plot of about 1,270 sq m, ideal for creating a vegetable garden and an orchard. Making this property even more exclusive is its extraordinary hillside position, offering a panorama of rare breadth and an atmosphere of absolute serenity.

Location: Borgomasino, Piedmont
Borgomasino is a quiet village set among the gentle glacial hills of Canavese, an area of Piedmont that remains truly authentic, marked by vineyards, castles, lakes, and highly evocative landscapes. Its location lets you enjoy the calm of the countryside without giving up fast connections to the main hubs of Northern Italy. The property is about 20 minutes from Ivrea, a UNESCO World Heritage city, less than an hour from Turin, and about one hour and thirty minutes from Milan, all easily reached via the A4 Turin–Milan motorway. Turin International Airport and Milan Malpensa International Airport are both conveniently accessible. The area offers many leisure opportunities: nearby Lake Viverone, one of Piedmont’s largest lakes, is ideal for walks and lakeside restaurants; Masino Castle, with its renowned historic park and events organized by the FAI, is one of the region’s most popular cultural destinations. The Canavese hills are also crossed by scenic routes for trekking, cycling, and hiking, and are a well-known wine-producing area. While retaining the discreet atmosphere of a small town, Borgomasino provides the main everyday services, including shops, dining, and local businesses, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a nature-immersed residence, well connected and in one of Piedmont’s most authentic areas.
