Exclusive Villa clustered around Oltrepò vineyards.

Exclusive Villa clustered around Oltrepò vineyards.

History


Specifically in the early ‘900, an Italian noble family, Folcioni, from the Liguria region, decided to buy a big piece of land, among the suggestive hills of Oltrepo Pavese, to build their country house.

Dating back to the beginning of the last century, Villa Maria Angiolina was originally designed by an Italian noble family, Folcioni. At that time, noble families from Liguria enjoyed this part of Italy, Oltrepo’ Pavese, so called because it is located under the PO river and the area is all of hills and gentle scopes; Casteggio and sorrounding towns are considered the starting point of this encanting area. As a matter of fact nowadays many exclusive properties, nearby the Villa, are still avaiable for visits.

In the Sixties, Villa Maria Angiolina had been adquired by an Italian estate professional and many years later sold to the current owner, whose has completely refurbished it to a phenomenally high standard.

The result of the refurbishment, which took from 2004 to 2008, is a beautifully presented house offering quite exceptional family living. Sitted in the middle of vineyards, this wonderful home has a wealth of original features mixed with modern comfort.

The Villa Renovation


Home renovation has been based on two fundamental criteria: bio construction, by using environmentally-friendly materials and energy effiency. In this regard, solar panels have been installed on a 200 m2 area, above the parking garage, to keep electricity in the house, while irrigation waters come from natural wells, located in the garden, and stored in an old underground tank; this has been found during renovation works and it is common belief that, thanks to its shape and location, it originally worked as an icehouse.
