We’re fond of simple pleasures and timeless vintage style (we love the cheery flower tiles here!). And this charming vacation home rental in Italy’s Piedmont region checks both boxes. One of two distinctive apartments divided from a beautiful hilltop villa, it’s a simple and stylishly designed renovation. 

Nestled on a hilltop above the Piedmont region’s valleys and vineyards below, this vacation home rental in Italy is one of two charming apartments divided and created from an historic villa. Hidden amongst the hazelnut trees, this estate is comprised of a beautiful central villa along with several former outbuildings and a handful of unique and chic glamping accommodations.

Discovered by a husband and wife, it was love at first sight for the duo who set about transforming the property, creating a home for themselves and guests to enjoy. 

Situated on the top floor, the apartment includes a spacious living room with an open kitchen at the front of the house, with an adjacent balcony offering gorgeous views overlooking the town of Nizza Monferrato and the hills of Piedmont. The charming original flower tiled floor adds to the rustic ambiance of wood and exposed brick, creating a cheerful and laid back place to gather. 

The two en suite bedrooms can accommodate up to four guests and are situated at the back of the house, staying nice and cool on hot summer days.

Designed in cool, neutral colors and a simple less is more approach, the apartment is furnished with a few key vintage pieces and a refreshing minimalism.  

A private terrace is just outside for al fresco coffee or dining and the swimming pool is situated at the top of the hill from where there are breathtakingly beautiful views of the surrounding farmlands and vineyards as well as the city beyond.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

AROUND

Surrounded by vineyards, rolling hills, and lovely forested regions, the small town of Nizza Monferrato is just a few minutes from the house and is ideal for walking it’s narrow streets to discover its numerous restaurants and bistros and many great little shops. Designated a UNESCO Heritage site renown for it’s pastoral beauty and legendary culinary scene, Piedmont’s slow food and wine movement means you’ll have an amazing array of outstanding eateries throughout the area.
