Villa complex: castle, residence, & previous jewelry factory, Piedmont, Italy

Live above the Monferrato hills, with sweeping 360-degree views of the spectacular Piemonte landscape. At the top of your new Italian villa compound is a castle, originally from the 12th century and updated in the 18th as a country house. Old-world frescoes and flourishes brought to life by the renowned area architecture firm of Gritella & Associates accompany a blank canvas of possibilities for future commercial or personal use. A former luxury brand jewelry factory and headquarters occupy a slice of your nearly eight-hectare property. A stunning, contemporary, structure, the factory and headquarters were also designed with entertaining in mind. Host a crowd in grand style from an enormous roof terrace overlooking majestic rolling scenery and ancient hilltop towns. While you dream of your future aspirations for this incredible property, sit back and relax into the effortless Italian way of life in your fully-renovated residential farmhouse.  

Celebrated worldwide for its wine-making, Medieval hill towns, and black and white truffles, the Piemonte region is an ideal spot to live la dolce vita. The gorgeous landscape, dominated by rolling farms and vineyards between Turin, Milan, and the Mediterranean Sea, received a UNESCO designation in 2014. Explore 16th-century wine caves, regional gastronomic specialties, and world-famous festivals of every flavor from April through October. Only 122km/75 miles from Milan, your villa is convenient for taking in both regional delights and swoon-worthy day trips further afield. Head to Modena for Michelin-starred food, Lakes Como and Maggiore for alpine views, explore Genoa on the Mediterranean Sea, or Nice to taste the French Riviera.
