Full Description


Newly restored stone 7 bed farmhouse, currently arranged as four individual units, but could easily be arranged to become a wonderful family home.

Beautifully restored character stone property, an ancient farmhouse.

The farmhouse has been very well restored and just requires to be finished with choice of kitchen and final fittings. It is now at the stage where it offers scope to a new owner to finish the project in a customised configuration. It offers flexibility: it is currently arranged as four small self-contained units, but these could easily be arranged to form one spectacular family home or it could be divided into two or more rental units.

This stunning farmhouse offers charm and character with exposed stone walls, terracotta floors and beamed ceilings.

The four units are currently arranged as follows:

two units which each comprise a living room with kitchenette, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom;
a further attic unit comprised of living room with kitchenette, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom;
and a smaller unit with a small kitchen, 1 bedroom and a bathroom.

These are all self contained but can be put in communication. There is central heating throughout and all services are connected. All the plumbing and electrics are new. There is parking at the property.

There is a small town with pizzeria, shops and a station (trains to Lucca) and also a restaurant with a swimming pool within a short drive.

Distances: Aulla (autostrada) 30 kms, Castelnuovo di Garfagnana 30 kms, Cerreto Laghi (skiing) 35 kms, Lerici (beaches) 50 kms, Lucca 75 kms, Pisa (airport) 105 kms.

Set on the border between Lunigiana and Garfagnana in the Tuscan hills with a nearby lake and trails into the mountains. The area is famous for its stone statues which date back to the Neolithic age and are thought to be gifts to the moon Goddess. Garfagnana is the valley that stretches west of Lucca and is characterised by hilltop villages and small towns with cobbled piazzas.

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 less than 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 well-being 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.
