3间卧室半独立房屋, 250 m²

巴尼奥内, Massa-Carrara (省)

卢尼哥纳

Large stone farmhouse with a further two outbuildings, all in need of restoration, totally immersed in nature yet only a short drive away from amenities. Set in a stunning position surrounded by its own land, with commanding 360 degree views across the countryside to the mountains beyond. The setting is competely private, with only a distant hilltop village in sight.

The sale includes extensive land surrounding the property, some of which is woodland. A portion has already been cleared and terraced.

Electricity and water are available on site.

The property requires restoration and therefore is exempt from the requirement of an APE (energy certification).

The property is set between Licciana Nardi and Bagnone. Bagnone is a charming medieval town dominated by a castle and a cobbled piazza is ideal for watching the local town life go by while sipping a cappuccino in one of the many cafès. Cobbled lanes with interlinking archways and restaurants hidden under the stone vaults, shops offering local produce and the backdrop of the mountains make this a particularly pretty town in the area. Licciana Nardi is a town in the Taverone valley with a 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 nobles had direct access to prayer and dealings with the local priest. There are also a bank, schools, restaurants and medical facilities. The nearby village of Monti has a castle on the hill above and offers a good selection of amenities.

The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and for lovers of the coast the sea is just 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 area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The Tuscan towns of Florence, Lucca and Pisa make great day trips to take in the art and architecture treasures, or just to soak in the italian life, and the coastal towns of Pietrasanta, Viareggio and Portofino are perfect for an aperitivo in the sunshine. Importantly, the airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are each just over an hour away.
