A true gem of a Langhe stone house – hidden away up in the hills with total privacy and endless views including over the river Bormida – yet not more than 10 minutes’ drive to the buzzing medieval market town of Cortemillia where you find all the restaurants, café and shops you need.

This fantastic Langhe Stone houses is laid out over two separate floors – plus a number of stone vaulted rooms at basement level – and is absolutely packed with traditional features and charming small quirks.

The house has had extensive renovation but due to unforeseen circumstances the renovation was never fully completed which leaves one – smaller – part of the house fully habitable and the other part of the house ready for the new owners to renovate to their personal taste and requirements.

Once renovated we envisage 4 – 5 bedrooms / 3 bathrooms / large country style kitchen / very large living room with visible roof beams and majestic views.

The renovated part currently includes a cosy kitchen, a good-sized dining room with access to a cosey living room. A central woodburning stove is accessible/visible from both the dining and living room. In addition, the ground floor includes a charming bathroom and on the first floor a really good-sized bedroom.

The larger part is full of potential with the rustic Langhe stone walls and the old wooden beams intact with both the roof, the windows and some of the floors already renovated or changed. The current owner had plans to add a further two bedrooms and two small bathrooms in one section and a very big living room with open views to the roof, a fireplace and panoramic windows over the valleys and Cortemilia in another section.

In addition, the property includes an independent barn also in Langhe stone which already as water/electricity just in front of the entrance. This little “cottage” is ideal for B&B purposes or for visiting family or guests who want a bit of privacy as it would be possible to create a small bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchenette and a living area.

The garden is well laid out with large open spaces, terrasses and a semi inground 4.5m diameter pool with a relatively new liner and pump.

This is a wonderful property with tremendous potential and with all the expensive parts of the renovation already completed – making the finishing both easier, faster and much cheaper!

Please contact me as soon as possible for a viewing – this is one of the best properties I have seen in a long time.
