Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, Lucca, Tuscany, Italy

This property is located close to Castelnuovo di Garfagnana and yet has complete privacy. There is easy access to the property with a lovely, open aspect. It was designed by two local architects and is completely anti-seismic.

Last year the house was completely upgraded to respect the latest energy efficiencient heating, lighting and windows. It has a thermal "cappotto" and roof insulation making it cool in the Summer and warm in the Winter.

The main entrance is found on the first floor. The first thing you will notice is the amazing wrap-around terrazza ideal for al-fresco dining, This then leads into the main living area with kitchen and indoor dining room, this open plan room is 30 mq and has glass doors and a window onto the terrace where the reception rooms and kitchen are located.

The house is built on a split-level with just ten steps going up to the bedroom area called the 'zona camera'. Here there are three large bedrooms and two bathrooms, the master bathroom is very attractive with a walk-in shower as well as a large bathtub.

The views over the Garfagnana National Park and up to the Appenines are unparalleled.

This very competively priced house deserves early inspection especially as it is now equipped with photovoltaic cells and batteries to make it in class A for energy efficiency.

All this equipment is found in the ground floor garage which is large enough for many cars.

The attic also has new windows and is finished to builders finish.
