Spacious, detached house requiring restoration, set at the edge of a chestnut wood in a private location with views, in a picturesque village with family-run restaurant. Detached property with tons of potential and with around an acre of pretty land.

Entrance is off a lovely stone-flagged courtyard and accommodation comprises: kitchen, living-room, two large double bedrooms and bathroom. There is also a large store room on this level which could likely be converted to extra accommodation. The ground floor has five vaulted cantine (store rooms), each with their own entrance overlooking the chestnut wood and surrounding hills.

The land is approximately 3,600 sqm (a little under an acre) and there are lovely views. Possibility of installing a swimming pool subject to planning.

The property is on the edge of a little hillside village with restaurant and is within walking distance of a larger village, Crespiano, with baker, restaurant/bar and grocer's shop and is approximately 10 minutes drive to the village of Comano.

Comano is at the head of the Taverone valley with a backdrop of the breathtaking Apennine Mountains. There are many walking trails leading from Comano and the surrounding villages to the hills. The town which is surrounded by the farming community hosts an annual horse festival in the summer and offers a good selection of shops, restaurants and sport facilities. 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 a short hop away. The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre (UNESCO World Heritage site) are ideal for swimming and sailing. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are each just over an hour away.
