Fixer-upper for sale in Donato

If you dream of a rustic property immersed in nature, in a truly unique and panoramic location, this offer in Donato might surprise you. We are located in one of the municipalities of the province of Biella, about 3.5 km from the town center, along the picturesque Tracciolino, a panoramic mountain road that connects the main sanctuaries of Biella, including the most famous Sanctuary of Oropa. The area is also popular with hiking enthusiasts: one of the most popular routes to Oropa passes through Andrate, a town just minutes from Donato, making this location ideal for those who love hiking, nature, and open views.


The property enjoys a 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding landscape, offering ever-changing glimpses throughout the seasons-a rare and sought-after asset for those who wish to live or spend time in an authentic and relaxing environment.


The property comprises a completely independent two-story farmhouse, plus a second nearby building, also in need of renovation and currently used as a storage space, perfect for an additional space, warehouse, or potential expansion. Access is possible by car: the last 500 meters of the road are unpaved but easily accessible, helping to maintain privacy and tranquility without sacrificing convenience.


Regarding utilities, there is no connection to the municipal water supply, but the house has a private spring for water supply, a typical feature of mountain cottages that guarantees independence and a strong connection to the natural environment. The property is presented in its rustic state, offering the possibility of being completely customized and adapted to your needs, leveraging both the large main house and the secondary building to create additional functional spaces.


A particularly notable feature is the roof, already in good condition and requiring no work, a major advantage for those wishing to undertake a renovation with greater peace of mind. The property also includes approximately 50,000 square meters of private land, unfenced, steep, partly wooded and partly pasture: a truly significant acreage, ideal for those seeking large spaces, direct contact with nature, or simply the pleasure of owning a large, private green space.


To better appreciate the property's setting and prime location, we also captured aerial footage with our drone. If you're looking for a farmhouse with sweeping views, history, nature, and great potential, contact us for more information or to schedule a viewing.
