This 1928 Castle-Villa is located in the province of Alessandria, just a few kilometers from Casale Monferrato. It enjoys a strategic position between Milan, Turin, and Genoa, with international airport and highway connections nearby.

Built in the 1920s, this Neo-Gothic style property was designed by the renowned architect Carrera. The structure spans eight levels, covering a surface area of approximately 660 sqm. Its striking architecture features a main tower rising over 30 meters high, three secondary towers, mullioned windows, and swallow-tail battlements.

The property includes 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, arranged across an intricate floor plan that beautifully preserves its intact original features: bespoke furniture by Aldo Boggione, inlaid doors, leaded glass windows, decorative frescoes by Angelo Bigatto, Murano glass and wrought-iron chandeliers, as well as parquet and mosaic flooring.

The estate is complemented by a consecrated chapel, private gardens, and a first-floor terrace. Careful conservative restoration works have been carried out over time, fully preserving its architectural and decorative integrity.

A rare opportunity for those seeking a historic residence of great character, featuring authentic period architecture and original finishes, nestled within the scenic countryside of Monferrato, yet within easy reach of Northern Italy’s main urban centers.

The property is located in Monferrato, a hilly region of Piedmont internationally renowned for its wine production and recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is nestled within a rural landscape shaped by rice and cereal farming along the Po Valley. The area beautifully preserves an authentic rural identity, with historic villages, castles, and ancient parish churches scattered across the surrounding hills. For centuries, it has served as a strategic crossroads between the major cities of Northern Italy.
This territory remains largely undiscovered by mass tourism, making it highly appreciated by those seeking authenticity, scenic landscapes, and a private setting without compromising on proximity to world-class infrastructure.
