La Cascina del Fattore
Situated on a hill, on the edge of Monforte d’Alba, La Cascina del Fattore is a lovely renovated farmhouse surrounded by vineyards and facing the distant Alps. The home incorporates artisanal and commissioned elements, including stone floors, washed painted timber ceilings, and a custom made library housing art and book collections. The renovation was designed and overseen by, Piemontese architect, Carlo Brocardo .

The double height, open plan, ground floor includes a large modern kitchen and dining area, a sitting room and a library.

Monforte and the Langhe
La Cascina del Fattore is the perfect place from which to discover the treasures of the Langhe. Only a short walk from the centre of Monforte d’Alba, a historic hilltop village, the house is surrounded by vineyards and the Alps. Monforte is not far from the other famous Langhe wine villages, i.e. Barolo, La Morra, Serralunga and Castiglione.
