A characteristic house of recent construction, set in the hills of Ovada where the upper Monferrato slopes down towards the Ligurian Apennines. In an evocative location, thanks to the varied geometry of crops that alternate with hillside villages, the residential part is developed on one level for a total of 180 square meters. Crossing the main entrance you are greeted by the LIVING AREA. A single large space with a fireplace, laminated wood ceiling and a view of the valley. The area is particularly bright, thanks in part to an opening in the roof, reminiscent of the impluvium of patrician houses from Roman times. Such a structure is very scenic, there is an interior island, with green plants, visible through the large windows. Communicating with the living room we also find a large and comfortable kitchen with adjacent laundry room. From the kitchen there is access to the outdoor living room under the porch with a wood-burning oven. The NIGHT ZONE, on the other hand, is characterized by a fine parquet floor in addition to the laminated wood ceiling that accompanies the entire house. Here we find a room, four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The finishes are of high quality. The technological systems are manageable in home automation version, the heating is underfloor heating, and can be connected to the wood fireplace placed in the living room. There is also provision for a photovoltaic system on the roof. The perimeter masonry and the roof have been properly insulated. The villa has a large room of approx. 250 sqm, basement, partly used as a warehouse and garage. The rooms on this floor already have provisions for a tavern with services. Rainwater from the roof is conveyed into a large underground tank, and can be used for outdoor irrigation. The property is fenced off; towards the valley with adequate retaining walls. The villa is surrounded by approximately 2,500 square metres of land, creating a customised garden with various types of plants and possibly with an infinity pool, facing the most suggestive view.
SITEAmong the rolling hills on the outskirts of Ovada we find this delightful property. From here there is an enchanting view of the village of Rocca Grimalda with its charming atmosphere. Wandering around the narrow streets of this village, among the various historical buildings, you can see corners full of valuable testimonies such as the Castle built in the 13th century for military purposes and later becoming a noble residence with Renaissance wings and a panoramic garden. In addition, the Church of Santa Limbania, patron saint of mule drivers, stands at the south-eastern end of the village, on a rise. On our way back to the centre, we stop on the terrace of Belvedere Marconi where we can enjoy an open view of the surrounding villages. A well-known event is the Carnival of the 'Lachera', at the end of February, a combination of dance and theatrical performance dating back to the people's revolt against the lord of the village. Food and wine specialities include anchovies in green sauce, noodles with mushrooms, green savoury pies with wild herbs, Piedmont-style mixed fried food, chestnut cake and Ovada sweet. From the property, Genoa airport can be reached in an hour and Milan airport in about an hour and 30 minutes. Lastly, the nearby town centre is equipped with all services for living in the area in a pleasant and peaceful manner.
