Description

In the heart of Upper Asti, immersed in the peace and beauty of the Monferrato landscape, this historic residence dating back to the seventeenth century offers a living experience defined by privacy, nature and authenticity. Its privileged position provides striking views over the hills and the mountains of the Alpine arc, as well as a particularly enchanting view of Cortanze Castle, creating a harmonious, continuous dialogue between the property and its surroundings. The house has undergone a skilful renovation, carried out with respect for its original architectural layout and historic identity. Traditional local features and authentic materials preserve its charm, creating spaces that recount the history and culture of the area. One of the most evocative features is the characteristic cellar carved into the tuff, a space of great charm that preserves the memory of Monferrato’s ancient traditions. The ground floor is arranged around a spacious living area divided into two distinct rooms. The entrance leads to the living room, where the dining area with fireplace and provisions for a kitchen creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. On the west side are the kitchen, the living area with direct access to the terraced portico, and a bathroom. The spaces are designed to encourage conviviality and the enjoyment of everyday life, both indoors and outdoors. The upper floor, connected by two staircases at the eastern and western ends of the house, contains the sleeping area, comprising four bedrooms and two bathrooms. It offers comfortable, private rooms that can, if desired, be divided to create two separate units. Surrounding the property, a large garden provides a natural extension of the living spaces. The greenery, tranquillity and views over the Monferrato hills frame pleasant moments outdoors, in an exceptionally peaceful and private setting. The property is completed by a garage, two covered parking spaces and two uncovered parking spaces. With its authentic character, this residence is ideal for those wishing to experience Monferrato through stays immersed in nature, weekend breaks and holidays with family or friends. A place where history, landscape and conviviality meet, offering a way of life deeply connected to the area, tranquillity and the pleasure of discovery.

Location: Castagnole delle Lanze, Piedmont

Cortanze is a small village in the Upper Asti area, in the heart of Monferrato, gathered around its majestic castle and set amid a landscape of hills, vineyards, woods and cultivated fields. Part of the Val Rilate Hill Union, the village preserves a heritage of Romanesque churches, historic residences and evidence of a history rooted in the Roman and medieval periods. The castle is the heart of the village and still defines its skyline today: rebuilt by the Pelletta family in the mid-14th century, it retains its characteristic trapezoidal layout, two side towers and an imposing cylindrical keep with swallowtail crenellations, providing an important example of medieval Piedmontese architecture. Cortanze’s location makes it possible to enjoy the countryside and its rhythms while maintaining convenient connections with Piedmont’s main centres. Asti can be reached in approximately 20 minutes and Casale Monferrato in around 30 minutes, while the proximity of the A21 and A26 motorways makes it easy to reach Turin, Milan and Genoa. Turin Caselle and Milan Malpensa airports are the main reference airports for domestic and international connections. The location is also convenient for reaching the Langhe, Alba and the wine-producing areas, as well as the Alpine destinations of Piedmont and the Aosta Valley. In the opposite direction, Liguria and the coast can be reached for a day by the sea, while the network of routes heading north also provides convenient access to Switzerland. Cortanze therefore offers a balance between the intimate character of a historic village and the possibility of quickly reaching cities, airports, mountains and the sea. It is an ideal setting for those seeking a residence surrounded by greenery, away from the pace of urban life, yet strategically located for experiencing Piedmont and travelling to the main destinations in Northern Italy.
