Set in the quiet countryside of Rocchetta Palafea, this property enjoys a panoramic position overlooking rolling hills and distant mountain profiles, in one of the most authentic and unspoiled areas of southern Piedmont.
The surrounding landscape is characterized by vineyards, cultivated fields, and wooded areas, offering a peaceful and private environment highly appreciated by international buyers seeking a genuine Italian rural lifestyle. The area is increasingly attractive to investors from Northern Europe and the United States due to its natural beauty, lower density, and proximity to renowned wine regions and the Ligurian coast.
Despite its secluded setting, the property remains well connected to nearby towns and essential services, making it suitable both as a private residence and as a hospitality or agricultural project.
The Property
This traditional farmhouse, free on all four sides, is arranged over two main levels and offers extensive interior and exterior spaces, ideal for a wide range of uses. The total land extends to about 7,300 sqm, with around 3,000 sqm directly surrounding the house and the remaining portion located nearby.
The residential area develops over about 400 sqm, complemented by an additional 200 sqm of storage and auxiliary spaces. The roof has been completely redone, an important structural improvement that adds value and reduces initial renovation efforts.
The property includes numerous outbuildings and agricultural structures, such as a large covered garage, a former stable, a storage building previously used for agricultural purposes, a chicken coop, and a spacious warehouse for tools and equipment. These elements significantly enhance the versatility of the estate, making it suitable for agricultural activities, hospitality ventures, or multi-family use.
The Ground Floor
The ground floor offers a traditional layout with generous spaces and multiple rooms. The entrance leads into a living room, followed by a spacious kitchen and a separate dining room, all designed to reflect the convivial nature of rural Italian homes.
Two additional large rooms provide flexibility for conversion into further living areas, studios, or guest accommodations. This level also includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, a large cellar, and a dedicated wood storage room. The presence of these service areas enhances the functionality of the property and reflects its agricultural heritage.
The First Floor
The first floor is particularly spacious, hosting seven bedrooms, making it ideal for large families or hospitality projects such as a bed and breakfast or boutique guesthouse.
A traditional hayloft completes this level, offering further potential for expansion. This space can be transformed into additional bedrooms, a panoramic lounge, or independent living units, depending on the intended use of the property.
