Property description

Castle from the 12th-14th century in the upper Scrivia valley in the village of Piano in Isola del Cantone - Liguria

The castle is located on a rocky promontory and is surrounded by the river Vobbia, which flows into the Scrivia and gives its name to the valley. It was built between the 12th and 14th centuries and has a square floor plan with two circular watchtowers.
Entering the main entrance, one enters a rectangular courtyard with a herringbone pavement that leads to the first floor and the loggia through a wide staircase. The loggia is an atmospheric indoor-outdoor space from which you can access the frescoed hall, located on one floor. From there you have access to three interconnected salons on the same floor. The floors are covered with the typical white Genoese marble and slate.…

The ceiling of the salon is unique and impressive. It depicts a starry sky on a blue background and shows the symbols of the Spinola family, the original owners of the castle. Other frescoes can be admired in the adjacent salons. A door leads to a landing where there is a small bathroom with a shower stall. There are two more interior staircases, one leading to the first floor and the other to the second floor, where a large rustic wooden living room with a large fireplace awaits. On both sides of the living room we have access to two double bedrooms with private bathroom and walk-in shower. Two more bedrooms are located on the same floor in the adjacent area, as well as a 1970"s style bathroom with a sunken bathtub. There are also two small terraces on this floor leading to the two towers, each with three windows.
The second floor has three bathrooms, while the fourth bathroom can be found on the lower floor. Going back to the first floor, you will find the fifth bathroom. Before entering the living room along the corridor you will find the laundry room, ironing room and wardrobe.
From the first floor you enter the armored room. This floor has two different levels, the parlor being lower than the two lateral areas. On the right side there is the kitchen and the office area with a separate entrance for the staff. On the left side there is a lounge, from which a second entrance leads to the garden, where there is a fountain and a large pine tree. Following the pergola, we enter the main garden.

It is a municipality of about 1,500 inhabitants that borders Piedmont and is the northernmost municipality in Liguria. The current municipal territory results from the union of the two villages of Isola and Cantone. Insula is the ancient Latin name and comes from its position at the confluence of two rivers: the Scrivia and the Vobbia. The town was built around a Benedictine monastery founded in 1216 along the ancient Via Postumia and dedicated to San Michele Arcangelo. It belonged from the Middle Ages to the Marquises of Gavi and was a land of clashes between the Republic of Genoa and the Diocese of Tortona to dominate the territory. It was only in 1218 that negotiations began between the two political factions, dividing the fief into two parts. The left part of the Scrivia stream was attributed to the Genoese Republic, the right part of the river to Tortona. In 1235 it became the only fief of the Malaspina family and from 1256 it passed to the Spinola family.
