Description

If you dream of immersing yourself in beauty, surrounded by greenery and tranquility, with a panoramic view, then this charming 19th-century farmhouse is precisely the solution for you. Dominantly positioned on the hills of Ovada, in the heart of Alto Monferrato, a step away from Liguria, the property, carefully renovated and restored, consists of two fan-shaped buildings at the center of a pleasant and spacious park of about 2 hectares with a panoramic pool. The two units have separate entrances but are internally connected: this feature makes them ideal for being inhabited by two family groups as a private residence or being used for high-end hospitality activities. The exposed brick part is the main residence and is arranged on 2 levels. Its style is contemporary, with highly impactful scenic effects: the living room with a double-height ceiling with a mezzanine for office use, the designer double-sided fireplace, the dining room with a charming bar corner, the professional stainless steel kitchen, the high-tech breakfast room used for the hospitality activity developed in the second unit. Everywhere art, culture, and high-quality details. On the first floor, the master suite features a walk-in closet and a bathroom with a shower and whirlpool tub, with direct access to the mezzanine. The floor is completed by two double bedrooms and a shared bathroom. In the basement, a true gem, more unique than rare: a wine cellar of about 250 sqm with Napoleonic brick vaults, incredibly high, with a scenic fireplace in the center, the ideal space for parties and receptions, also equipped with a delightful infernot to store the finest wines. The second unit, intended as a guesthouse, is spread over 3 levels and is reached from the breakfast room: characterized by a creative style, each of its rooms has its own life, with a specific individuality, and walking through it is like taking a trip around the world: the living room with fireplace and the dining room with a "British" taste, the room with oriental style, the heraldic-themed room, the room evoking Provence, the Victorian room. All four bedrooms in the guesthouse have en-suite bathrooms. The property also boasts an extraordinary panoramic terrace adjacent to the back area of the house, with direct access to the barbecue area and pizza oven. Completing the property is a garage for two cars and an outdoor area where multiple parking spaces are available.

Location: Ovada, Piedmont

Ovada, a small town in Alto Monferrato, is the last city in Piedmont before Liguria. It can be reached by traveling the road of castles, in order the castles of Montaldeo, Mornese, and Lerma. In addition to its characteristic historic center, it is also known for its wine production and its Dolcetto, biscuits, farinata, and its pleasant surroundings. The first mentions of the town date back to the Roman era, but the earliest settlements may even date back to pre-Roman times. Over time, it has experienced various vicissitudes due to its strategic importance in feudal struggles, belonging first to the Marquises of Monferrato, then to the Genoese. It also became French property during the period between the 14th and 15th centuries, then returned to the Genoese. Situated between the cities of Alessandria and Genoa, Ovada also has the great advantage of being just 5 km from the highway exit and only half an hour from the Ligurian Riviera.
