Frassinetto
Piemonte
Authentic charm in the heart of Piedmont
Tucked away in the charming mountain village of Frassinetto, amidst the unspoilt countryside of Piedmont, lies La Cazinà: a characterful property with a rich history and a unique, authentic charm. The name literally means ‘the farm’, but in the local Franco-Provençal dialect it refers to ‘the hayloft’. The upper floor was once used to store hay, whilst the ground floor served as a cowshed. Today, this historic building has been transformed into a special and atmospheric home, with great respect for tradition.
The property is spread over two floors. On the ground floor is a cosy living area with a practical kitchenette, a characterful open fire and a multifunctional sofa that can easily be converted into a bunk bed for extra guests. The warm atmosphere is enhanced by the combination of natural materials and rustic details.
An internal staircase leads to the spacious bedroom on the first floor. Here, a second open fireplace and a freestanding bath create a romantic and relaxing ambience. The bathroom is situated next to the bedroom. Through the use of natural stone and wood, the interior exudes authenticity, warmth and the charm of traditional Alpine architecture.
La Cazinà is an ideal place for lovers of tranquillity, nature and Italian authenticity. A unique property for those seeking a characterful home or an atmospheric holiday retreat in the beautiful mountains of Piedmont. Frassinetto is situated in the province of Turin, at an altitude of 1,100 metres, and lies approximately 7 km from the Gran Paradiso National Park. It is a very popular destination for walkers and mountaineers, as the network of footpaths is extensive, well-maintained and clearly signposted.
