Going up from the Val di Susa towards Almese and Rubiana you reach Colle del Lys, a pass located between the Val di Susa and the Val di Viù which recently reopened the ski facilities. Going down towards the Val di Lanzo, after having passed the villages of Niquidetto and Bertesseno and after having passed the Col San Giovanni, in the Biolai region, 3 km above Viù you come across an excellently asphalted side road on the right of those arriving from the Val di Susa , which leads to an isolated valley through a descent of about 5 km up to Richiaglio... where time seems to have stopped.
This ease of access convinced some young people who had left the town to renovate the old house of their ancestors , for holiday use, maintaining the basic structure and without altering its physiognomy for a master plan that still protects the remote structures of these very ancient homes. The ancient crafts of the Alpine valleys are thus protected and remembered to restore the culture, aggregation, sense of community and toil of these populations lost in the oblivion of time.
The village of Richiaglio located at 736 meters above sea level sea level, in fact it is made up of a handful of rustic houses with shaved roofs, some leaning against each other and some more isolated. Yet the village is not uninhabited, 27 souls resident in the winter season, including elderly people, families and children, still live from sheep farming as they did 100 years ago.
The stone houses remain as a reminder of a distant past as evidence of a cult that is not dead, but is only linked more to the few souls who stubbornly decided to still live here as evidence of a village not entirely forgotten.
In Viù, in the hamlet of Richiaglio 9, we offer for sale an ancient independent farmhouse, surrounded by greenery and the coolness of splendid woods at 736 m. above sea level, located in the center of the hamlet and composed of two residential units with external service, equipped with independent entrances with a portion of land.
The first unit includes a kitchen and cellar on the ground floor, on the first floor two bedrooms and a balcony and on the third floor two other rooms with a second balcony. The second unit is composed on the ground floor of a storage room (an old stable), on the first floor of a kitchen and a bedroom and on the second floor of another storage room (an attic that could be transformed into 2/3 bedrooms).
The real estate units are equipped with a water and electrical system and the heating is currently provided by wood stoves.
