Monasterolo di Savigliano, farmland near Savigliano

On the plain between Cuneo and Turin, a short way from Savigliano, Monasterolo is a farming village where fields of maize and fodder and livestock farms reach right up to the last houses. The centre is compact, with farmsteads spread through the surrounding countryside. Savigliano, a few minutes away by car, has the railway station, secondary schools, hospital and shops.

The population has changed little: there are 1,323 residents (2023), down 2.5% since 2011. The average age is 44.6, younger than the 46.3 of the province of Cuneo, and over-65s are 22.9%. Foreign residents make up 7.6%. Average declared incomes are slightly above the provincial figure.

Buyers mostly find detached houses, small villas and farmhouses with land, plus a few buildings in the old core. The land is flat and cycling to Savigliano is realistic; winter fog is common and the climate is zone E.

The municipality is in seismic zone 3, like 140 other municipalities in the province, with an expected ground acceleration of 0.084 g in the built-up area. That is not high, but for a farmhouse with solid brick walls and timber floors it is worth getting a structural survey before planning a renovation.

The report finds the land parcel on the Revenue Agency maps and, for that address, checks the official flood maps along the watercourses of the plain.
