Tuscany, Lunigiana, Fivizzano, Italy

Exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautiful Tuscan farmhouse, in a good, livable condition with plenty of potential to achieve a wonderful home. Easy car access, plentiful parking and extensive land. New roof.

The farmhouse currently comprises accommodation all on one level with entrance hall, spacious kitchen/dining room with wonderful open fireplace, a large living room (could be used as a bedroom) and off this is another large bedroom. An attached portion of the property is yet to be restored, so it could be possible to connect this to create a comfortable four bed home. There are three good 'cantina' (store rooms) below which offer potential. Additionally, there is a lovely stone outbuilding which has been restored to provide a bedroom with mezzanine and a small bathroom. Full of character with paved courtyard, chestnut beams, terracotta, stone doorways, open fireplace. Land of around 25,000 sqm (around 6 acres) planted with fruit trees, some vines and olives. It is possible to install a swimming pool on the extensive land, subject to consent.

New roof. Services are connected. Central heating. Water from a spring. Set in the countryside, but within easy reach of Fivizzano, the house is close to the confluence of two streams, where there is wonderful river swimming in the rocky pools and waterfalls: farmhouse is situated an easy drive from Fivizzano (6 km), a medieval walled town with a central cobbled piazza and is often referred to as the Florence of Lunigiana. The bustling town hosts many cultural events over the summer with concerts in the piazza and reenactments of medieval parades. With its musical heritage the town also attracts international musicians during its annual folk music festival. There is a hospital, shops and restaurants in the town. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and for lovers of the coast the stunning Ligurian coastline is within easy reach.

Lunigiana is a magical part of Tuscany. 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 only half-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 among 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 and are just a short hop 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 a little over an hour away.

Distances: Fivizzano 6 km, Aulla (autostrada and train station) 20 km, Lerici (beaches) 40 km, Cinque Terre 50 km, Pisa (airport) 95 km, Lucca 95 km, Florence 150 km.
