Art Deco Villa in Piedmont, Italy

Spacious Art Deco Villa with Beautiful Views, 6 Bedrooms, Garage, 1300m² Garden

Between Nizza Monferrato and Canelli

Situation : This fascinating detached property is located among fields and vineyards not far from the two lively wine towns of Nizza Monferrato and Canelli, just outside a pleasant village that offers good day-to-day shopping facilities, restaurants and bars, plus a hotel, bank, post office and medical centre. The property is approached by a lane that serves only this and one further property. The grounds measure about 1,300 m² (0.325 acre) with space for a swimming pool. The house enjoys all-day sun, and every room of the house has far-reaching over the rolling Monferrato hills. From the property the motorway can be reached in about 15 minutes.

The villa, built in an elegant turn-of-the-century style, is of solid brick construction with a tower-like architectural design - all the rooms are arranged around a staircase in the centre of the house, and there are 5 floors in total. Nearly every room is double-aspect, which maximises light and views. The house is habitable, but in need of some modernization. It has central heating, a garage and a tavernetta/wine cellar in the basement; there is also room for an extension.

The ground floor : the main entrance door leads from the front garden into an entrance hall with a central staircase that leads to all other floors, both upstairs and downstairs. The ground floor accommodation includes a kitchen with doors opening onto a patio overlooking the garden, a living/dining room with an open fireplace, and a cloakroom.

Basement : the lower ground floor basement houses a tavernetta/wine cellar that opens onto the rear garden.

First floor : has two double bedrooms, one single bedroom with a patio, and a bathroom. All these bedrooms are double-aspect and have great views.

Second floor : has two further double bedrooms, one single room currently used as a kitchen, and a further WC. These rooms are also double-aspect, with even better views.

Tower: the stairs continue from the second floor up to a double-aspect tower room with the best and most far-reaching views in the house.

Outside: The fenced grounds are approached by a gate that leads to a single garage and to a garden surrounding the house that features mature ornamental trees plus various shrubs and bushes. There are a patio area and a workshop at the rear of the house, and a few steps lead down to a rectangular grassy area featuring several fruit trees including cherry, apple, apricot, plum, fig and peach.

Services: Mains water, mains electricity, gas, telephone.

Viewing: Strictly by appointment with the sole agents, Piedmont Properties.

Our personal opinion: An attractive property in a very convenient location that would make a stylish residence; it is in a reasonably habitable condition, but requires some decorative attention.
