Stunning Stone Property Near Historic Barga – Eco-Friendly with Infinity Pool, Barn, and Breathtaking Views
Situated in a panoramic position close to the beautiful and historic town of Barga, this meticulously restored stone property is full of charm, character, and modern eco-conscious features. Set over three floors, the home can be accessed via either the middle or lower level, offering flexibility and convenience.
Interior Accommodation
Entering  on the lower level you step from the partly shaded terrace which is ideal for al fresco dining which leads directly into a spacious wooden kitchen, fully fitted with integrated appliances. An open archway connects to the dining room comfortably seating eight to ten guests. This configuration allows for easy indoor-outdoor living perfect for enjoying summer meals outside or cosy dinners indoors during the cooler months. Also on this floor is a small shower room-wc  adjacent to a utility room. This floor has underfloor heating. Two other doors lead onto the  south facing terrace.
From the dining room an open plan staircase takes you to the ground floor where you will find the main entrance hall. The valley side terrace is the main access front door which leads to  the heart of the hall and  is a large atrium with a welcoming wood burner creating a warm and inviting focal point.
Off the atrium is the main sitting room, a bright and airy space with low level Juliet windows on two sides offering stunning natural light. Radiators along with a second wood burner ensure the room stays cosy throughout the winter. Also on this level is the first of three en-suite bedrooms with access onto a balcony. The boiler room that is accessed mainly from the outside has a second door from this bathroom.
The open staircase continues up to the atrium to the first floor where you will find two additional en-suite double bedrooms. One of these features a small balcony-a perfect spot for your morning coffee while enjoying tranquil surroundings.
Traditional Meets Modern Comfort
Situated in the middle of terraces with olive trees and figs, the main house is rich with original features including chestnut beams and terracotta ceilings with tiled floors all expertly restored to preserve the property’s Tuscan heritage while ensuring modern comfort.
Outdoor Features & Additional Buildings
Just above the main house the current owners have added a spectacular infinity pool offering uninterrupted views across the valley to the village of Tiglio. The area provides a completely private and serene retreat.
Adjacent to the main house is a large stone two storey barn recently re-roofed and insulated offering excellent potential for conversion into guest accommodation (subject to planning permission). There is adequate parking in front of the barn.
An ancient two story chestnut drying shed lies between this and the main house which provides ideal storage for logs opposite the boiler room.
A recently rebuilt  garage is situated next to the drive a short way from the house.
There is a small stone two storey farm building alongside the drive.
The property enjoys frontage onto a peaceful trout stream where locals occasionally fish and is adjacent to an ancient donkey path that leads directly into Barga one way, a thirty minute scenic walk  and Tiglio the other.
