Prestigious 18th Century Estate With Swimming Pool

Located a few kilometers from Asti and the highway exit, this prestigious 18th-century villa was once part of the nearby castle that belonged to the Marquis Borsarelli di Rifreddo. Located in a dominant position in the center of a characteristic village in the Asti area, the property has undergone a conservative renovation over the years, highlighting its typical period features with taste and elegance. Despite being located in the town center, the house is completely free-standing, quiet, and enjoys splendid views of the surrounding landscape. The property’s large volume has allowed for the creation of three residential units, all with separate entrances; an ideal solution for hosting large families or for hosting a hospitality business. The main building features a large entrance hall, a bathroom, and a laundry room on the ground floor. This is followed by a generous living area, with a 50-square-meter space entirely dedicated to the fully equipped kitchen. On the opposite side of the house, separated by what were once the old castle’s stables, is a mini-apartment comprising a living room, dining area, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a walk-in closet. This is followed by a large 100-square-meter living room, currently used for dance, Pilates, and yoga classes, adjacent to another mini-apartment comprising a large living room with open kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. On the second floor, there are two more attic bedrooms and a large attic area yet to be renovated. In the basement, the traditional cellar with barrel ceilings has been perfectly restored and is used for wine storage. The adjacent room is used as a storage space for the outdoor swimming pool. The heated swimming pool, in a panoramic and protected location, allows for outdoor enjoyment even in spring and autumn. The house overlooks a large courtyard, a venue for outdoor events and concerts, surrounded by plants and centuries-old trees. The former orangery, accessed from the private garden, is currently used as a social space with a water feature and a summer kitchen. On the opposite side of the courtyard, a brick structure is also used as a summer kitchen, complete with a bathroom and a splendid covered terrace overlooking the valley. The property also includes a garage with a single parking space and two covered parking spaces.
