2 Bed Apartment for sale
Lajatico, Pisa, Tuscany, Italy
Full Description
A rare opportunity to renovate a wonderful stone village house, which will have spectacular views over the Tuscan hills from an enchanting 'loggia'.
Sweet village house, of good size (117 sqm), tucked away in a stone courtyard, set in a tranquil spot in a beautiful, well-kept Tuscan village. The house is solidly built, but it is need of a little modernisation to show it off at its best. We are working with a local architect who has a project plan in place to produce a great property, which would be ideal as a holiday base, at any time of year, or as a rental opportunity.
Subject to planning, it may be possible to renovate the house to produce a 2 bed, 2 bath house on 3 levels, with a spectacular open loggia on the top floor, for inside/outside dining. It could also be possible to include a self-contained guest suite on the lower floor. A local Architect has drawn up plans, which could be implemented subject to approval from the local authorities. He has at his disposal a good team of local builders who have produced some wonderful renovation projects in the area. The photos show an impression of what could be possible under this plan.
All services are connected. There is central heating.
The price is €60,000 for the property as it is. The cost of the renovation project depends on exactly what is required.
The lovely town of Lajatico, birthplace of the tenor Andrea Bocelli is set in breathtaking countryside. The natural contours of the land have been used to create the 'Teatro del Silenzio' where the singer holds a concert each July, with an international array of guests. The quintessential Tuscan countryside around Lajatico offers superb views and beautifully restored properties with soft rolling hills and cypress trees at every turn. The hillsides are scattered with great local restaurants serving the best seasonal local fare. The walled hilltop fortress town of Volterra is generally considered to be one of the most impressive of all the Tuscan villages, and it can be clearly seen from this property.
