Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the land is steeped with decades of rich history and is full of reminders of the ancient world. From white truffles to delectable cheeses and fine wines, for those opening a restaurant in this region, the best local ingredients for creating delicious Italian dishes are available. Among the friendly locals, you could find native cooks who have a flair for Italian cuisine and a pleasant staff.

It is aptly named and is a stunning territory, offering breathtaking vistas and panoramas of hillsides with curling rivers that have been cultivated for centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many farmhouses that are fully restored as well as numerous country houses to be renovated that can be personalised by buyers according to their tastes are available.&nbsp;The restoration usually involves the use of exposed bricks and local stones in order to maintains their original style and materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"191\" height=\"167\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gate-away.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/cartinascomfidi.gif\" alt=\"vineyards area\" class=\"wp-image-2350\" title=\"vineyards area\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of the typical farmhouses that you will find in the Langhe are situated in the area of Alba, which represents its main town. They lie on wide plots of land which are ideal to start wine production businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>General features:<\/strong> they date back to early 20th century and spread over 2 levels with central stairway, kitchen and rustic dining room on the ground floor. In the Upper Langa, farmhouses are usually stone-built and situated atop a hill, far from residential areas. On the contrary, in the Lower Langa (worldwide famous for wines such as Barolo, Barbaresco, Moscato) they are closer to town centres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most expensive country houses are those situated in panoramic positions. So a 150 m\u00b2 farmhouse surrounded by a wide plot of land could cost you approximately \u0404300,000 in addition to the cost of restoration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or escape to Roero for cheaper alternatives. Adjacent to the richly cultivated landscape of Langhe, Roero offers an escape into uncontaminated nature which is unique in Piedmont.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Magic of Monferrato<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Also Monferrato is quite affordable. This beautiful region is comprised of lush countryside dotted with vineyards and towns. Choose to live amidst a stunning landscape with panoramic views and fertile land. A farmhouse of 100 m\u00b2 to be restored in Monferrato with a wide plot of land can be find for about \u040480,000. In strategic positions overlooking the surrounding hills could cost you more than \u20ac100,000, and the price rises if it also boasts luxury features, such as swimming pool, or if the land produces exquisite wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Piedmont is an ideal place to savour the slow paced life of elegant Italy. For those who wish to escape to a quiet farmhouse which they can restore and revitalise; or start a successful business, this beautiful Italian region is full of opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TO BE CONTINUED&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>[Featured image by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/stefanedberg62\/7690313850\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Roberto Faccenda<\/a>]<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the best place to find a wide choice of farmhouses nestled among rows of &hellip; <a class=\"card__read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gate-away.com\/blog\/rural-heavens-in-italy-farmhouses-in-piedmont-part-1\/\">Read More <span class=\"icon\"><br \/>\n    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\">\n        <use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.gate-away.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/gateaway\/dist\/icons\/icons.svg#assets--src--icons--arrow-right\"><\/use>\n    <\/svg><br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2349,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[217,221],"tags":[21,54,119],"class_list":["post-2343","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-living-in-italy","category-regions-in-italy","tag-farmhouses","tag-northern-italy","tag-piedmont"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Rural Heavens: Farmhouses in Piedmont (part 1)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"What is the best place to find a wide choice of farmhouses nestled among rows of vineyards?
