Description
In the heart of the Ligurian hinterland, on the hills overlooking the Prino Valley, lies Prelà Castello, an ancient settlement that was once part of the County of Pietralata and home to its historic castle. Here, among the stones of this medieval fortress and the olive groves of Western Liguria, the history of some of the region’s most important noble families unfolded over the centuries: the Counts of Ventimiglia, the Grimaldi, the Doria, the Lascaris and the House of Savoy.
The castle’s location was far from accidental: the ancient settlement occupied a strategic position along the routes connecting the coast with the inland valleys. Traces of this past can still be found today in the village, its architecture and the surrounding landscape.
It is within this historic setting that the castle now offered for sale is located: a secluded and self-contained ancient complex, surrounded by greenery and overlooking the historic centre of Prelà. Its origins, dating back to between the 13th and 14th centuries, can still be seen in a medieval tower and a historic cistern, authentic testimonies to its past and character. From the castle, the view extends across the Prino Valley and the surrounding hills, in a setting of exceptional privacy.
The castle for sale comprises a number of rooms, ancillary spaces and areas to be interpreted according to the vision and project of its future owner: a property intended for those who can recognise its authentic value and wish to transform it without losing its identity.
A castle to live in, but above all, to interpret.
This is not simply a matter of acquiring walls and square metres. It means taking possession of a place that, for centuries, was a stage for power, alliances and passions, a unique castle for those who are not simply looking for a property, but for a story to continue.
