At the gateway to Monferrato, nestled on the first hills overlooking the River Po and the rice fields, stands this elegant villa, finely renovated in a contemporary style while preserving the authentic details and finishes of its era.The property is arranged over two levels. The pedestrian entrance from the road leads directly to the first floor, where you are welcomed by a spacious and bright double living room with an artist-designed fireplace and a large living area with open-plan kitchen: a single, refined open space floored with a unique slab of fine marble. Large windows and French doors frame a breathtaking view that stretches across mountains, rice fields, rolling hills, the castle and the river below.An elegant door separates the living area from the sleeping quarters, entirely floored in rare, fine Burmese teak, brushed to a natural finish.Here there are two spacious double bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom with shower, and a splendid master suite with relaxation or study area and a large en suite bathroom with double walk-through glass shower. The entire sleeping area is equipped with air conditioning.Completing this floor is a room currently used as a storage space, easily convertible into a fourth bedroom or private study.Descending to the ground floor/basement level, which has a more rustic character yet equally generous spaces, you find a welcoming sitting room with fireplace and direct access to the garden, and a large hall with coffered ceiling and a window overlooking Gabiano Castle – a true natural painting. On the same level there is a spacious cellar, ideal for wine storage or tastings, a guest bathroom, a laundry/storage room and the technical room. From the cellar there is also access to the large garage with up-and-over door, accommodating up to five cars.The garden, an essential feature of this property, surrounds the villa on all sides, immersing it completely in the rolling hillside landscape. At the front, a paved area is adorned with hedges and trees, both exotic and native species, with pathways leading to the entrance and to the rear of the house. Here, the land opens like a natural amphitheatre suspended over the landscape, offering a truly extraordinary view. In this panoramic area there is a newly built saltwater swimming pool and a sauna created from an old oak-wood cabin, providing the perfect spot for absolute relaxation, to be enjoyed in every season.
