    The book

    Dream came true

    Poggio Maria Piedmont is described and pictured in the book 'Piedmont - the dream, the house, the life' from the Danish Jesper Remo. After his football career, Jesper helped people to find the perfect location to build their dream house in the Langhe region (Piedmont). This book describes his love for the region. Jesper and his wife bought Poggio Maria end 90's and restored it completely. We bought the house in December 2017 from its (successive) Danish owners. The grand mother of our Italian notary also happened to be one of the former residents. A house with a rich history.
