For sale cottage in Morbello Piemonte

These ancient dwellings stand amidst the rolling hills of the Alto Monferrato in a quiet and sunny location.

The 'Cascina Magnera', an elegant mansion dating back to the late 19th century, consists of two majestic buildings facing a large open courtyard, this property offers unparalleled privacy. The manor house, of ancient construction with exposed stonework in the joints, extends over two floors, totalling 183.5 square metres. Next to it, there is an enchanting rustic building of recent construction, on approximately 144 square metres. This structure includes an agricultural storage room, a storeroom and a garage on the ground floor, while the first floor opens onto a charming barn. Access to both buildings is made even more refined by two overhead doors.
The property grounds extend over just over 5 hectares, offering an amazing variety of landscapes. From the dense expanses of coppice, acacia, oak and pine trees, to meadows filled with fragrant flowers and herbs.
In addition, the property is delighted by the presence of a small stream running through the Martello valley. This site of geo-palaeontological interest represents a highly fossiliferous area, part of the deposits of the Piedmontese Tertiary Basin (BTP), dating back to the Upper Oligocene, approximately 33.9-23 million years ago. A geological treasure that adds further fascination to this prestigious residence.

The second residence, 'Cascina Bassana', is an extraordinarily beautiful agricultural property consisting of four. The main house, which is spread over two floors and has 16 rooms, covers approximately 392 square metres and is enriched by a spacious semi-basement cellar. Next to it, a semi-basement barn with a first floor used as storage space extends over approximately 224 square metres. A charming two-storey barn, measuring approximately 76 square metres, and a tool shed measuring approximately 30 square metres complete this sumptuous property.
The extensive grounds of this property extend over approximately 36 hectares, which are divided between lush woods, meadows for cutting, pastures and uncultivated areas with valuable trees. The farmhouse is externally clad in sandstone and terracotta bricks. Internally, the work is in its unfinished state, offering endless possibilities for customisation for the interior, bathrooms, electrical and water systems, heating and internal and external fixtures. The water and electric utilities are already present in the courtyard, ready to be activated.
Finally, there is a large well/cistern to collect rainwater.

The property is embraced by the sinuous flow of the Rio Caramagna river on the right side, while a small stream runs through the Martello valley, offering an enchanting and suggestive atmosphere. This land is also characterised by an important geo-palaeontological value, being part of the deposits of the Piedmontese Tertiary Basin (BTP), dating back to the Upper Oligocene, a period between 33.9 and 23 million years ago.
To reach the house, it is necessary to drive along a dirt road, the shortest route being approximately 1.6 kilometres from the state road.
The strategic position of this property places it approximately 18 kilometres (about 30 minutes) from the Ovada motorway exit and 12 kilometres (about 23 minutes) from Acqui Terme, making it conveniently connected to the main communication routes.
Immersed in its unspoilt beauty and surrounded by an extraordinary landscape, this property represents a unique opportunity for those seeking a prestigious residence immersed in the tranquillity of the Monferrato hills.
