A true gem of a Langhe stone house – hidden away up in the hills with total privacy and endless views – yet not more than 5 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 house, with space for an amazing pool, was enlarged and thoroughly modernised by its current owner in the Spring and Summer of 2024 with – among other things – a new kitchen/living room, large fresh and modern bathrooms, an extra bedroom as well as a wonderful terrace and outdoor kitchen.

This stunning home which is sold fully furnished is laid out over two floors and is absolutely packed with traditional features and charming small quirks. This is the type of country home you see in the “Living in Italy” magazines.

The total house measures app. 185 sq.mt and is split in a ground floor and a lower ground floor which both have breathtaking views of the valleys. The two floors are accessed separately giving you the options of allocating two bedrooms and a large bathroom with bathtub to vising friends or family members.

The ground floor consists of a large kitchen / dining / living area with a wonderful fireplace and very large southerly windows which not only provide absolutely stunning views but also fill the room with light. As this part of the house also has high ceilings with visible roof beams the room feels very big and airy.

The kitchen is completely new with brand new cooking facilities, dishwasher and a fridge. The living room has been fitted with new modern and stylish furniture and lighting. From this area you have direct access to a wonderful south / westerly terrace with table and chairs and the outdoor kitchen area. Passing through the living area you will find two good sized and totally renovated bedrooms with great views. From one of the bedrooms, you have access to a 100% private east facing terrace ideal for sunny breakfasts or for enjoying a glass of wine or a good book when you want to escape the hot afternoon sun.

Adjacent to the bedrooms you find a completely new and spacious bathroom with a shower created in a charming mix of tiles, lange stone and rendered walls. A good-sized technical room which also serves as a storage room with a washing machine is located at the back of the house.

At the semi basement level, one finds a good-sized bedroom, all built in the original Langhe stone and with an arched ceiling. Adjacent to this very charming bedroom one finds a larger than normal, and fully modern, bathroom with a bathtub on lions’ feet. Both the bedroom and the bathroom have the original Langhe stone walls and arched ceilings. Also at this semi basement level, one find the fourth bedroom built completely in Langhe stone and with the most charming arched ceiling. The room is accessed via the garden as a way of creating maximal privacy.

The entire house has been tastefully updated, painted and modernised and is ready to move into on very short notice. This really is a situation where you only need to bring you toothbrush!

The surrounding land is 5.800 sq.mt. and located behind a gate at the end of a private driveway leading up to the house where there is parking for several cars. Nestled among the trees and hazelnut bushes at the top of the land, you have ample space for the most amazing pool from where you could enjoy the endless views.

The entire building is constructed in Langhe Stone which are visible both inside and out, it has a good terracotta roof, double glazing, central heating with a relatively new gas boiler and with a combination of Langhe stone and wooden floors throughout. There is communal water and electricity. Gas (for cooking and heating) is GPL. Black and grey water is as always in these country houses via septic tank.
