5 bedrooms farmhouse, 490 m²

Mombello Monferrato, Alessandria (province)

Cascina San Giovanni is a historic farmhouse in brick and tuff with a spectacular panoramic view, partially renovated, with swimming pool and club house independent of the house, which is surrounded by approximately 23,000 m2 of land owned.
The tuff club house, with exposed bleached wood roof, opens onto the swimming pool and is totally renovated and usable. It consists of a lounge with bar, bathrooms (also for the disabled), dressing room, mezzanine with balcony overlooking the lounge below. This place was once used as a recreational club, making use of the swimming pool in front.
The L-shaped farmhouse has the main part on three floors and has been partially restored; the side portico, in blocks of tuff and bricks, allows for further extensions.
On the ground floor, to the left of the staircase, we find a sitting room with a wood-burning fireplace and a large living room with another working fireplace and spectacular sandblasted brick barrel vaults. The open space harmoniously winds into the dining room which connects to a large, very bright kitchen because it is totally glazed, almost like a greenhouse. This is followed by a pantry-storage room, a laundry room and a toilet.
To the right of the staircase, there is a living room with a tuff fireplace, and, located on an intermediate floor, two other rooms and a bathroom still to be totally restored; an internal staircase leads to a large cellar behind it with high vaults which also has independent access from the courtyard.
Going up the staircase, on the first floor to the right, we find a large bedroom with en suite bathroom, closet and parquet floors.
To the left, there is another bedroom or walk-in closet for the master suite.
On the second floor there are two bedrooms with wooden floors, the largest of which has a rustic exposed roof with wooden trusses and terracotta tiles, and a bathroom still to be built.

MOMBELLO MONFERRATO stands on a gentle slope of the hilly crown facing the northern slope of the sanctuary of Crea and includes the hamlets of: Casalino-Cascine Garoppi, Ilengo, Morsingo, Pozzengo-Gaminella and Zenevreto, as well as about twenty small villages and farmhouses.
Perhaps also the Italian primacy of over 60 km of dirt roads and then still myriads of small paths let us know the signs of a past where it seems that time has stopped.

In Pozzengo: in addition to the famous Sanctuary of San Gottardo which stands on the first ramp of the road from Gaminella, in the center of the town there is the small church of the Beata Vergine del Carmine built in 1655, continuing on we find the ancient small church of San Rocco and almost on the border with Cantavenna a crag leads us to the Sacellum of San Bernardo;
San Rocco is the patron saint of Mombello Monferrato.
