Enclosed within a walled park surrounded by the Monferrato countryside, this historic estate is a former Benedictine convent, originally developed as part of the Romanesque Abbey of Santa Giustina di Sezzadio. Dating back to the 11th century, this ancient, architecturally stunning complex has restored residential quarters preserving its original beauty and charm. The complex is composed of a picturesque 3,100-square-meter main villa and 1,110 square meters of cellars plus another 11,000 square meters of rural buildings, which have endless potential as either a residential or tourist accommodation facility. The Romanesque abbey at the heart of the complex is a true gem, being a national monument containing extraordinary features such as mosaic floors dating back to the 9th-10th century and frescoes from the 1300s and 1400s. Beyond the abbey one strolls through shaded courtyards, admiring the grandiose architecture of the complex with its red brick walls, covered in places by ivy, and traditional Mediterranean tiled roofing. The villa’s interior features pristine original parquet and stone flooring, arched doorways, and wrought iron accents. The majestic state rooms and master bedrooms lead off the villa’s main gallery with grand stairwell as the villa’s centerpiece. A shaded, tree-lined drive and spacious 9-hectares of parkland with a swimming pool, clay tennis court, walking trails, kitchen garden with limonaia and a lake provide ample room for outdoor activities, large parties, or events and enjoying a traditional rural Italian way of life.
