It’s all about the views at this countryside villa in Italy’s Langhe.

Villa con Vista is the brainchild of designer and developer Antonio Spagnuolo, aka Mr NTS, and it’s designed to maximise views of the Alps while bedding into its rural setting near Piedmont. Local stone has been used for the exterior of the countryside home, while enormous double-height glass windows capture views of the mountains and surrounding hills from every room.

Interiors of the four-bedroom Italian property – on the market via Fantastic Frank Italy for €880,000 – have been given a minimalist touch, as not to distract from the drama of the views. White walls and timber ceilings and floors make up the simple palette.

Buyers seeking a savvy investment might be interested in the fact that the Langhe property can be subdivided into two (half is currently vacant). It could also be turned into a farm with through separate negation for an adjoining hectare of land which includes vineyards.
