In the heart of the Monferrato hills, in the province of Asti—an area recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the beauty of vineyard landscapes blends with the quiet charm of ancient villages—stands the enchanting Castello del Gufo, a historic residence of rare and captivating allure.
This noble estate is distinguished by its elegant architecture and commanding panoramic position, immersed in nature and surrounded by vineyards, centuries-old trees, and a deep, treasured silence.
The castle has undergone a meticulous conservative restoration, preserving original features such as coffered ceilings and terracotta floors, while seamlessly integrating refined, contemporary architectural solutions—ideal for a charming private residence or a high-end hospitality venture.
The castle’s crenellated tower, visible from afar, announces the prestige of the property, which extends across multiple levels with a total surface area of approximately 500 square meters. The living spaces include lounges, salons, bedrooms, a study, kitchens, and service areas—each room tells a story, each detail preserves a legacy.
Perfectly integrated into the landscape, the swimming pool enjoys a privileged position, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding vineyards and, on clear days, the Alps in the distance.
Castello del Gufo represents a rare opportunity for those seeking a prestigious residence, a representative estate, a boutique hospitality property, or a valuable investment in one of Piedmont’s most renowned food and wine regions.
Conveniently located within easy reach of Turin, Milan, and the Ligurian Riviera, and just a short drive from Nizza Monferrato, Asti, and Alessandria, the castle is ready to welcome new custodians of its timeless story.
The small town of Casorzo Monferrato lies among the Monferrato hills, halfway between Asti and Casale Monferrato, and is known for a production of excellence: malvasia wine, an aromatic with a sweet flavor. This quaint village boasts ancient origins; we find traces of its name as far back as Celtic times when it already made itself noteworthy as a particularly well-defended settlement, thanks in part to its dominant position on top of the hill.
