Set in a dominant position within one of the most authentic villages of Monferrato, this late 18th-century residence is the result of a refined restoration. The project has enhanced the original materials with understated elegance, particularly the local pietra da cantone, whose warm straw-yellow tones give the property a timeless appeal.
The house has been designed as a harmonious whole, where each space is carefully arranged to ensure comfort throughout the day. Despite its central village location, the property enjoys full independence on all four sides, offering privacy and open views over the surrounding landscape.
The Interiors
The ground floor is dedicated to living and entertaining: a spacious entrance hall gracefully connects the dining area and the living room. The kitchen opens onto a generous covered portico, ideal for outdoor living during the warmer months.
The upper floors host the sleeping area, featuring bright rooms, a private study, and a walk-in wardrobe—perfectly blending contemporary living with a historic setting. The basement includes a garage, service rooms, a wine cellar, and a traditional infernot, a distinctive element of the local architectural heritage.
Property highlights
Additional value is provided by the restoration carried out by architect Raffaldi, a specialist in the renovation of historic properties in the area. A beautiful panoramic terrace further enhances the livability and appeal of the home.
Olivola: history and UNESCO landscape
Olivola is a hilltop village at 280 meters above sea level, set within the UNESCO-listed Monferrato landscape. Once renowned for producing oil for the House of Savoy, the area is now defined by rolling hills and scenic views. Conveniently located near Casale Monferrato and Alessandria, it offers both charm and accessibility.
This residence is an ideal choice for those seeking the peace of the countryside without giving up the character and identity of a historic community.
