Piedmont Farmhouse for restoration in beautiful location



This incredible farmhouse has been in the same family for years. It dates back 150 years and is ready for a new owner and a bit of love and dedication.

The location is wow..!! The road is calm, hardly used, and gives good access to the cute, historic local town. Cafe, restaurant – what more do you need? For anything else you drive 10 minutes to Asti or head south to Alba and in 25 minutes you’re in one of the best small cities in Italy.

On the ground floor, there’s a sort of living room with a fireplace, then a kitchen with access to the wine cellar. The wine cellar! Just great, a wonderful space. There’s a bathroom and a long living room with a fireplace. All the ceilings are brick vaults.

The first floor has 4 bedrooms, all good sizes, and two back-to-back bathrooms. The structure looks good. We can get an expert and a builder to check it for you but no one will disagree this is about as good as it gets for location and potential.

There’s land around the house, plenty of place for a pool or for growing your own healthy foods.

About Richard Edwards
I‘m originally from London, UK with some Italian blood (3 generations back). North Italy, Piedmont (Piemonte), is home and has been for 22 years.

I started working in Italian property sales just after moving here to Italy. I saw that expat buyers needed assistance, good honest help when buying a home through local agents in the region as they can often struggle to understand the needs of people buying from abroad.

Over the years I’ve successfully assisted many people, from all over the world realise a dream. I know the Piedmont region inside out, always working within the law and constantly networking. I cover all the main wine areas of Langhe, Alta Langa, Monferrato and the Roero in this northern part of Italy. Over the last 20 years, I’ve helped countless people buy beautiful homes in towns such as Alba, Barolo, Monforte, Cortemilia, Monchiero, Cuneo, Asti, Mango, La Morra, Sinio, Nizza Monferrato, Canelli, Santo Stefano, Canale and many other places such as the lakes. If you are looking to relocate or buy a vacation home in Italy I can assist you all the way. I’ve assisted all kinds of people from doctors to Hollywood celebrities and I’m waiting to meet you!

If you’re looking to buy a business in Italy I can also assist you.

Bono and welcome to the beautiful little Piedmont town of gavan now you may not have heard of it because it’s a bit of a hidden treasure and it lies more or less halfway between Alba Alba and ASE Alba’s about 20 minutes ay about 25 minutes from here

And it’s a beautiful beautiful town on AIO Hilltop there’s the most gorgeous Palace to my right here and I’ll show you that in a moment but the reason we’re here is to show you a farmhouse that’s come up for sale and it’s something of a rarity because it needs

Restoration it’s in a beautiful location just in the Hills down the road from here and it’s hard to find these places anymore because they’ve been all the houses have been restored and if they do come up for sale again they’re usually quite expensive but this one you can

Start from the ground up but what I’ll do is show you a little bit of gavan first and then I’ll show you the video and photographs of the house and then we’ll meet back in my studio later and I’ll share more details about this property so enjoy the Tour [Laughter] Can I just ask a favor can you click the Subscribe button we’re really amazed about how quickly the channel was grown and we want to grow it even more to really open up pamon to everybody and to feature fantastic houses that are for sale in the region and the only way we

Can do that is with your support we thank everybody that’s clicked subscribe already and who’s liked the videos and sent us comments we really appreciate all of the uh the input that we’ve had so far but if you can click subscribe then we can put a lot more energy and

Lot more focus into making these videos to make them really interesting for you and if there’s anyone else that you think might be interested by share send them a link to the video click the share button and they might appreciate it as well so thank you so much for listening

Let’s carry on with the Video B me you you there go Go Me Me me go Go B [Applause] [Applause] n N Yeah yeah So what do you think yes it needs a lot of work and the house is untidy and full of junk but that’s not unusual and that can all be put right the position is very desirable you’d have noticed that there’s a road behind but this is more

Like an access road for a few houses it’s not busy a few cars a day maybe the local town which is walking distance has a bank a bar restaurant and we heard that workers started on a golf course not so far from here so this could make

It a great rental property and it will certainly add value to the property in the future so what does the property have well it has very nice land around and it’s a bit more than 4,500 Square met or about 1.1 Acres so it’s not overwhelming and there’s plenty of place

To put us home pool and it’s in the Hills it has beautiful views you can see barbaresco from there the famous wi town of barbaresco now the ground floor has a sort of entrance room and then that’s the one full of books in the pictures and the video and then there’s a hallway

That leads to the stairs and then next to this is the kitchen and this has access to the wine Celler below and the next room is the long living room now the first floor or second floor if you’re watching from the US has two bath

BS back to back my video didn’t come out well of one of them so here’s a photo of them there are four bedrooms all decent sizes and all facing the front of the house on the right side of the house you’d have noticed a freshly restored

Barn or garage and this has been used by a local builder for storage but it comes with the house and it can be closed in to be used as a garage or for whatever you want and then opposite the house is this kind of a a barn here’s a picture

Of of the inside it’s not a great picture but it shows you what’s inside it’s just a bare building but this could have potential to turn it into a studio or storage rooms or maybe even expand it into more living space so how do you go

About restoring it well we work with a local architect who can oversee everything for you and she speaks excellent English and we also work with great Builders let me show you some work of one of the builders we work with now they’re not the best photographs but he

Can do anything from full restoration to fit in the bathroom whatever it is you want I do plan on making a video about his work I’m just waiting for the perfect weather and when he has the time to take me around and show you some of his complete

Projects you can see the same type of brick volted ceilings and how they can be restored into something really beautiful and this house has these so what about the price well the owner wants $ 29,000 which is not so unreasonable but the agent tells me that they can

Probably talk him down a little bit more than that what it really has going for it is the location it’s rare to find these things now that are worth restoring and the house has great potential it can be turned into something really quite special and the local area is just beautiful I mean

We’re filming here in the winter so can you imagine what this looks like in the summer thank you so much for watching if you need more information just get in touch we have the keys so we can visit anytime and I challenge you to find better please click the Subscribe and

Like if you enjoyed the video and I look forward to seeing you in my next one bye for now

  1. Maybe just me but I would prefer a talking walk through video discussing the building what you are seeing rather than listening to unlicensed and annoying music. I want to know about cracks in the wall not cover bands. Property does look nice.

  2. I have been monitoring the air quality in Piedmont and its a big concerning. Especially in winter. How are people coping with that?
