3 bedrooms country house, 167 m²

Alessandria, Alessandria (province)

Exclusive sale – Detached country house on four sides with private courtyard and about 2,000 sq m of land in Lobbi, near Alessandria, Piedmont. A rare opportunity to buy an A2 energy-rated rural home that has been comprehensively upgraded for efficiency, with PVC double-glazed windows, condensation boiler, 6 kW solar photovoltaic system, cork insulation and electric gate.

The ground floor offers a bright entrance with double glass doors and security door, a spacious kitchen with dining area, a cosy living room with fireplace, an additional room that can be used as a dining room or guest bedroom, a bathroom, and a practical laundry/boiler room.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a second bathroom. One of the bedrooms is exceptionally large – larger than many studio flats – and could easily become a master suite, home office or hobby room. A long balcony overlooks the inner courtyard.

A key strength of the property is its expansion potential:

• an additional area of about 60 sq m is attached to the main house and can be finished as a separate guest apartment, rental unit or extension of the main home;
• the roof volume also allows the creation of an additional attic floor of about 40 sq m, subject to permits.

The house stands out for its low running costs thanks to its strong energy performance, modern systems and 6 kW solar PV installation.

Outside, the property includes about 2,000 sq m of land, partly suitable for cultivation and with further potential depending on planning permissions: ideal for a vegetable garden, orchard, small vineyard, pool area or future outdoor projects. A 19 sq m garage and additional storage buildings complete the property.

Location is another major advantage:

• about 13 minutes from Alessandria
• about 15 minutes from Tortona
• about 3 minutes from the motorway exit
• around 1 hour by car from Milan, Turin and Genoa

Lobbi is well placed for enjoying some of Piedmont’s best-known food and wine areas, including Langhe, Monferrato, Tortonese, Novese and Oltrepò Pavese. This is a peaceful countryside setting with fast access to services, transport links and major northern Italian cities.

Ideal as a main residence, holiday home or multi-purpose property with guest/rental potential.
