14 bedrooms detached house, 700 m²

Calestano, Parma (province)

BUILDING (6 FLOORS) WITH LAND AND WOODLAND
The house is located on the hills of Parma (Emilia Romagna, Italy) at 850 m altitude in the locality of Vigolone di Calestano. It is immersed in nature, in a panoramic area, far from traffic and smog. It is a town known for the Fonte di San Giovanni, a spontaneous source of water with beneficial and purifying properties immersed in the woods. The clean air and the tranquility of the place make it a destination for athletes (mountain-bike or road bikes) and a holiday resort for families. This is why it is “The Country of Longevity”.
The property is 6 kms from Calestano, a town where you can find shops, schools, banks, pharmacy and public services for safety and health. It is 23 kms from Sala Baganza where there is the nearest golf course and a sports center with swimming pool and baseball field. It is 37 kms from Parma in Emilia Romagna, a city of art where important figures lived such as the composer Giuseppe Verdi, the Empress Maria Luigia of Austria, wife of Napoleon and where Prosciutto di Parma, Barilla Pasta, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and many other food specialties are born.
The building measures approximately 700 sq m and was built in the 1960s as a hotel with a bar by a cook-hotelier from Paris whose parents lived in Vigolone. Some of the hotel's furnishings are still present in the house. In the 1990s it was sold and transformed into a private residence by the current owners. 3 large apartments of approximately 100 sq m each, an attic and a tavern have been created, while what was the restaurant hall with a bar area has been preserved to host lunches and parties with many guests.
The house is ideal for those who want to change their life and return to clean air and nature, but also for those who, while not giving up these benefits of healthy living, would also like to make it a place of work such as a B&B, an Agriturismo or a Holistic Center, or simply a bar/restaurant for the weekend and summer period, given the influx of cyclists and families who arrive for a Sunday outing.
Those who, instead, would like to make a more speculative investment, given the tranquility of the place, the healthy air and the possibility of outdoor activities, could transform the building into a Community for young people to help, for elderly people to care for or for any other commercial activity that requires large internal and external spaces.
The house is already habitable, but requires modernization and maintenance work, since for many years it has been inhabited only as a second home (holiday home).
Completes the property a large courtyard with garden, vegetable garden and garage.
In the attached floor plans and photos, the internal spaces can be better understood.
Almost all the internal furnishings (wood stoves, antique furniture) are included in the selling price, as well as a coppiced woodland in the vicinity.
The owners are available to view the property and also to find the necessary technicians for the purchase (certified surveyors, notary, specialized professionals).
Negotiable price and no agency fees.
