Villa with expansive terrace in a hidden location, but within easy distance of all amenities.

Wonderful house with feeling of space and light and with large rooms for easy living, with a large terrace which runs the full width of the house.

The house is entered up a few steps to the terrace and into the cosy dining room, with fireplace. The kitchen is well-equipped and welcoming and the sitting room is large and features an open, curved staircase. There is a bathroom downstairs with shower. Upstairs are three bedrooms (one with terrace) and a room which is piped for a bathroom, and is now ready to be finished.

There are sets of double doors from the reception rooms to the terrace for inside/outside living. There is a flat lawned area of garden and pretty planting all around. The terrace is a generous space, large enough to hold a dining pergola as well as for a relaxation area.

Down an external staircase and with private courtyard garden is a separate one bed flat, with independent entrance. This is currently used for summer lets and generates a good income.

Licciana Nardi is a town in the Taverone valley with 13th century pedestrian street flanked with local shops. Central in the town is the Piazza del Municipio which hosts the 16th century Malaspina castle and many festivals such as the Chestnut Festival in the autumn. The castle is linked to the baroque church by a covered bridge so that the noblemen had direct access to prayer and dealings with the local priest. There is also a bank, schools, restaurants, coffee bars and medical facilities. The nearby village of Monti has a castle on the hill above and offers a good selection of amenities.

Lunigiana is a magical part of Tuscany. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and 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. The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre are ideal for swimming and sailing. The area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are all just over an hour away.
