Description

Enclosed within a walled park surrounded by the Monferrato countryside, this historic estate is a former Benedictine convent, originally developed as part of the Romanesque Abbey of Santa Giustina di Sezzadio. Dating back to the 11th century, this ancient, architecturally stunning complex has restored residential quarters preserving its original beauty and charm. The complex is composed of a picturesque 3,100-square-meter main villa and 1,110 square meters of cellars plus another 11,000 square meters of rural buildings, which have endless potential as either a residential or tourist accommodation facility. The Romanesque abbey at the heart of the complex is a true gem, being a national monument containing extraordinary features such as mosaic floors dating back to the 9th-10th century and frescoes from the 1300s and 1400s. Beyond the abbey one strolls through shaded courtyards, admiring the grandiose architecture of the complex with its red brick walls, covered in places by ivy, and traditional Mediterranean tiled roofing. The villa’s interior features pristine original parquet and stone flooring, arched doorways, and wrought iron accents. The majestic state rooms and master bedrooms lead off the villa’s main gallery with grand stairwell as the villa’s centerpiece. A shaded, tree-lined drive and spacious 9-hectares of parkland with a swimming pool, clay tennis court, walking trails, kitchen garden with limonaia and a lake provide ample room for outdoor activities, large parties, or events and enjoying a traditional rural Italian way of life. ​ Circondata dalla cinta muraria del parco, oltre cui si estende la campagna del Monferrato, la dimora storica un tempo era un convento benedettino, inizialmente costruito come parte integrante dell’abbazia romanica di Santa Giustina di Sezzadio. Databile all'XI secolo, questo antico e straordinario complesso architettonico ha fatto rifiorire le strutture residenziali, conservando tutta la bellezza e il fascino del passato. Il complesso è costituito da una meravigliosa villa principale di 3.100 metri quadrati, a cui si aggiungono 1.100 metri quadrati di cantine e altri 11.000 metri quadrati di edifici rurali, i quali hanno un potenziale infinito come strutture sia residenziali che turistiche. L'abbazia romanica, invece, è un gioiello incastonato nel centro del complesso, un vero e proprio monumento nazionale contenente elementi straordinari, come i pavimenti mosaicati databili intorno al IX-X secolo e gli affreschi del Quattro-Cinquecento. Superata l'abbazia, è possibile passeggiare tra corti variopinte, ammirando la grandiosità architettonica del complesso, caratterizzato da pareti in rosso laterizio ricoperte a tratti dall'edera e dai tetti di tegole in tipico stile mediterraneo. Gli interni della villa presentano pavimenti originali conservati intatti, in pietra e parquet, porte ad arco e accenti in ferro battuto. Dai maestosi saloni e dalle camere padronali si accede al corridoio principale della villa, in cui si erge un ampio vano scala, fulcro dell'intera dimora. L'ombreggiato viale alberato e i 9 ettari sconfinati di parco con piscina, campo da tennis su terra battuta, percorsi pedonali, orto con limonaia e lago offrono ampio spazio per attività all'aria aperta, grandi feste o eventi per godere del tradizionale stile di vita rurale italiano. ​ 这座历史悠久的庄园曾是一座本笃会修道院,最初是作为 Santa Giustina di Sezzadio 罗马风格修道院的一部分而开发的。庄园坐落于一座围墙环绕的公园里,公园外则是 Monferrato 乡村地区。这座历史悠久、建造工艺精湛的建筑群可以追溯至 11 世纪,住宅区经过修复,同时保留了房产原有的美观和魅力。建筑群由一座风景如画的 3,100 平米主别墅和一个 1,110 平米酒窖组成,另有 11,000 平米的乡村风格建筑群,可以作为住宅或旅游住宿设施,可塑性极强。位于建筑群中心的罗马风格修道院犹如一件不可多得的珍宝,列名国家级历史遗迹,其中包含一些异乎寻常的元素,比如可追溯至 9 世纪到 10 世纪的马赛克地板,以及 14 世纪和 15 世纪的壁画。走出修道院,您可以在绿树成荫的庭院里漫步,欣赏宏伟的建筑群,徜徉于爬满常春藤的红砖墙壁以及传统的地中海式瓦屋顶之间。别墅内部依然保留原始的镶木地板和石地板、拱形门廊,以及铸铁部件。别墅主长廊两侧设有庄严的宽敞大厅和主卧室,中央则是壮观的楼梯井。绿树成荫的车道、开阔的 9 公顷草坪,以及游泳池、粘土网球场、散步道、带温室的果菜园和湖泊,为户外活动、大型聚会或活动提供了充足的空间,让您尽情享受传统的意大利乡村生活方式。 ​ 中介商佣金3% | 开标激励10% | 买家附加费12%或17.5万欧元(以较高者为准)

Location

Located in the Piedmont region of Italy, this area is known for its elegant cuisine and Barolo wine. True to its name, Piedmont lies at the foot of the Italian Alps, and it is a land of mountains, open valleys and charming hilltop towns and villages. The Alps of Piedmont and Aosta are under 2 hours away with some of the highest peaks and largest glaciers in Europe. Spend winters at any of the nearby ski resorts, including the high altitude world class ski areas of the Via Lattea Milky Way and Breuil-Cervinia. Summers can be spent exploring the many festivals held in this magical region - truffle, mushroom and wine, just to name a few. As Italy's second-largest region, it contains more hills and lakes per square mile than Tuscany. Hilltop castles, extraordinary restaurants and valleys full of vines can be found around every corner in this pastoral paradise. Wines produced on Piedmontese wine estates are some of the world’s finest – on a single day trip you could be tasting the wines of Barbaresco, Barolo, Gavi and Barbara di Montferrato. Also in the Piedmont region is a town called Alba, which is home to the precious white truffle - one of the most sought after food items in the world. Enjoy a wonderful, authentic Italian meal at one of the many eateries throughout the city or take in the active nightlife. For luxury and relaxation, the Ligurian coast is just 45 minutes away from the property with the beautiful towns of Rapallo, Camogli and the world renowned harbor of Portofino where you can enjoy the picturesque architecture, opulent yachts, fine dining, and a swim in the crystal blue water. Alessandria, the closest town to the property, is a charming historic town where one can wander the narrows streets exploring the boutique shops and enjoying a meal in one of the many excellent restaurants. For those lovers of Italian fashion and furniture design in just 1 hour 15 minutes one can be browsing the designer stores on Milan’s Via della Spiga and Via Montenapoleone. And closer to the property one can splash out at the Serravalle Outlet shopping center, Italy’s largest designer outlet center. For those days when one doesn’t want to venture far, a short stroll into the village of Sezzadio for a frothy cappuccino in one of the cafes or a delicious dish of pasta at the family-run trattoria is a fantastic way to immerse oneself in Italy’s traditional way of life. With Milan Linate airport just 1 hour 15 mins from the property and Milan Malpensa 1 hour 40 mins the area is well served by daily international flights from all over the world.
