Country house, excellent condition, 515 m², Bossolasco

At a short distance from the picturesque village of Bossolasco, often referred to as the Pearl of the Langhe, we offer for sale this ancient former farmstead made up of two buildings forming together the traditional “L” shaped farm. One house was originally the farmer’s dwelling, the other building contained the stable and the hayloft. In the course of the property’s restoration the two buildings have been connected by a portico which is used as a garage and is topped by a terrace.

The first house features cellars and the boiler room in its basement, a kitchen and a living room on the first floor and two bedrooms, one with a dressing room on the second floor.

The ground floor of the former stable and hayloft presently features a spacious room currently used as a library, a small summer kitchen opening onto a covered outdoor dining area and finally a toilet. The upper floor which used to be the hayloft contains a spacious light-filled living room with large arched windows, a bathroom and a walk-in closet.

A gallery accessed on a winding staircase features an attic sitting room and a bedroom.

The houses are habitable, some up-dating may be useful, for example measures geared to improved energy efficiency as they would benefit from tax incentives.

The 2 hectares of land that make up the property are partly fenced and grow hazel shrubs, the area’s main crop. The West-facing position is uniquely sunny, tranquil and panoramic with views encompassing the entire Western section of the Alps. A leisurely walk will take you to the village of Bossolasco which is home to some pleasant restaurants, cafes and shops selling the area’s typical produce. Alba is 30 kms away. The ski resorts of the Maritime Alps and the beaches of the Ligurian Riviera are perfect destinations for pleasant day trips.
