On the road to the Castle of Vigoleno..
We are in the Municipality of Vernasca, on the hills of Piacenza, in Val D'Arda, an area dedicated to agriculture that extends under the Castle of Vigoleno, a jewel of medieval architecture now known for its numerous cultural initiatives, including youth projects for music, food and wine and the spread of the pleasure of reading. All events that generate tourist interest in this area but that do not want to distort the vocation of peasant ''doing''. There are many properties for sale but finding one to your size is never easy.
In this atmosphere, the solution we propose comes from a careful and loving renovation of a stone farmhouse. Lots of green space for a beautiful garden, lots of agricultural land (arable and wooded), adjacent to the house an orchard, vegetable garden, greenery for farmyard animals and so on.
The building is now a welcoming, refined habitat, with attention to detail: the care and love that has aroused in the owners of this place shines through. We are all looking for a ''place in the sun'' that comforts us from the stress of a modern life that is always accelerating, that allows us to experience our ability to return to a simple life, in contact with nature. Picking fruit directly from the tree, letting our children and animals run in the open air without danger, preparing a salad for friends with products from our garden is a satisfaction. But if you don't have a green thumb, here in these places there is also the possibility of participating in cultural events and other initiatives not necessarily related to the ''peasant virtues'', but also just to the magic of being at peace with ourselves following our own rhythms as we like.
The spaces: The house is on two levels, we enter and find a lovely entrance hall, a small bathroom and an open staircase leading to the upper floor. On the left immediately a living room, a dining room and then we move on to the eat-in kitchen with direct exit to the porch and we are already in our garden.
The orchard offers: peaches, medlars, pears, apples, apricots and a row of vines for table grapes.
The agricultural land: In addition to the garden in front of the house, we have plots of wooded and arable land for a total of about 37000sqm.
The systems: The house is equipped with recent systems of the latest generation, the renovation was completed around 2012 – we point out ventilated roof and solar thermal panel. The heating is methane with radiators and a wood stove. Plumbing and electrical systems with relative compliance, sewerage in accordance with regulations.
A ready-to-live solution as they say ''turnkey'', further information is available in the studio.
