WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY

The villa offers potential as a holiday let or B&B. The views are superb and the beautiful town of Bagnone a couple of minutes drive or pleasant walk.

THINGS TO BEAR IN MIND

The upstairs apartment requires central heating.
The staircase is external so if it were to be converted to a single large house an interior staircase would have to be installed.

WHERE IS IT ?

Distances: Bagnone 3 km, Aulla and Pontremoli 17 km, skiing and beaches 40 km, Pisa (airport) 100 km. There is a train station in Villafranca in Lunigiana (4 km) with trains to Pisa, the Cinque Terre (beaches) and mainline to Parma and connecting cities.

Bagnone is a charming medieval town dominated by a castle and a cobbled piazza ideal for watching the local town life go by while sipping a cappuccino in one of the many cafès. Cobbled lanes with interlinking archways and restaurants hidden under the stone vaults, shops offering local produce and the backdrop of the mountains make this a particularly pretty town in the area.

Lunigiana (pronounced Loonee-janna) is a magical part of Tuscany starting with its name the ?Land of the Moon?. The hills that encircle Lunigiana create an intimate and relaxed atmosphere whilst the blend of the mountains and sea are extremely inviting to those who enjoy the outdoors. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage but for lovers of the coast the sea is only half-an-hours? drive away.

Lunigiana is special and has been likened to a magical kingdom. It is not only the breath-taking scenery with its abundance of medieval castles but you simply feel a huge sense of wellbeing radiating from the sunshine, glorious countryside, delicious food and wine, kind friendly locals and most importantly, from the sense of tradition and community amongst people here that is rarely seen in modern day life.

The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre are ideal for swimming and sailing in the summer while the snow clad mountains offer skiing in the local resorts during the winter months and are each a short drive away. The area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are all within an hours? drive.
