About this place
Situated in the serene Piedmontese plains of Alessandria province, Frassineto Po is home to a historic cottage built in the early 1900s. This solidly constructed property features a main building divided into two functional sections and is set within a vast 3,100 square meter plot that includes several outbuildings for versatile use.
The generously proportioned residential area spans three levels, offering ample living space with the potential for stunning countryside views from a spacious terrace. The first floor includes a once-functioning hayloft that showcases beautiful exposed beams, presenting a fantastic opportunity for conversion into a chic living area. The agricultural section contains large garages and utility rooms, perfect for various purposes.
Surrounded by six additional structures such as sheds and warehouses, this property can easily be transformed into multiple apartments, a charming bed & breakfast, or even an agriturismo, capitalising on the area's rich gastronomic identity. While the cottage needs some interior remodelling, it is well-maintained and ready for new ideas. Its location balances the tranquility of countryside living with convenient access to Casale Monferrato, ensuring both peace and accessibility to urban amenities.

Buying property in Italy
Italy is open to most foreign buyers under reciprocity rules (EU/EEA buyers always; non-EU buyers from countries with bilateral agreements, which covers the UK, US, Canada, Australia and most major markets). A codice fiscale is required, and a notaio handles the conveyance as a neutral public official. An independent lawyer or geometra is strongly recommended for due diligence.
The €1 home schemes in southern villages are real but come with strict renovation deadlines (typically 3 years) and security deposits.
Non-resident mortgages from Italian banks are available but limited (typically 50–60% LTV).
The prima casa (primary residence) tax rate of 2% requires you to declare residency in the same comune within 18 months of completion — failure means back-taxes plus penalties.
General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
