Description
The estate consists of a main historical building and several annexes used for the agricultural activity. The main building covers an area of about 397sqm on three levels plus 198sqm of usable attic. The historical character of the building is enhanced by the external façade in plaster and stone and the medallion with effigy set at the entrance and overlooking the entire property thanks to a large garden with pergola. The main farmhouse is ready to move in, with well-maintained finishing and with features of the typical noble country houses of the Basso Monferrato. At ground floor we find a kitchen with dining room, sitting room and master living room with antique fireplace, cellar with woodshed and toilet. On the first floor, reachable through internal double staircase with vaults, we have 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The second floor is an attic with granary and has lower windows. From here and from the bow-window in the mezzanine floor (used as bathroom) we can enjoy marvellous view of the surrounding countryside. The property includes a masonry stone and brick cellar/storage of about 145sqm with barrel vault, a two-floor guesthouse with two apartments of 110sqm and 130sqm (including outdoor areas), porticoes and canopies used as tool shed for a total area of 430sqm and a garage of 45sqm. The land that surrounds the property covers an area of about 15,0660 ha, mostly planted as vineyard and hazelnut grove. There are also some oaks and a delightful area for vegetable garden. The buildings are located on the top of a private hill. Possibility to purchase additional land of about 15 Ha.

State of repair
Outside, the main building has preserved the traditional features of the antique country houses, with red brick masonry and plastered stone inserts, wooden windows, covering with tiles. The farmhouse needs some internal restoration and conservative renewal works. It boasts cotto tiles or single-fired light coloured tiles pavements; the bathrooms, the kitchens and the kitchenettes need interventions too, as well as the bedrooms. The windows, with shutters, are in wood. The guesthouse, instead, is in good conditions, being it restored in the '90s. It boasts plastered bricks facades, wooden windows and shutters, coverings in tiles. The rooms of the guesthouse are ready to move in, but still need some improvement works.
