Tuscany, Pistoia, Pistoia, Italy

Charming 2 bedroom home situated in Massa e Cozzile, which is a magical place nestled in the flourishing and lush Tuscan hills, offering a pleasant regenerative cradle for body and soul.

Located in the ancient homonymous medieval village, a short distance from the historic spa of Montecatini, it is a precious glimpse of a time when the supremacy of Italian art, history and style, were undisputed.

This charming property is a lovingly restored apartment within a 2 storey house, with a private and independent entrance and a private panoramic garden area with a covered veranda.

Inside there is a careful choice of materials: from serene stone, local travertine, terracotta tiles, natural linen fabrics and prestigious sought-after furnishings, to the delicate porcelain services branded Richard Ginori.

From the outdoor garden and the windows of the house you can enjoy the spectacle of the Valdinievole, the surrounding villages and small hill towns, the ancient Monasteries, while nearby are breathtaking views and renowned Tuscan wineries. All the above is an attempt to allow you to get a feeling for this unique property, of which a mere description of facts and figures do not do any justice at all.

This property is accessed by one of the winding roads of the small town of Massa e Cozzile, with an independent external stone staircase which leads to the outdoor garden and terrace and the main entrance. From here the property develops on a single ground floor, and covers a net floor area of around 80m2. The main entrance opens onto the beautifully appointed living room and dining room with exposed chestnut beams ceiling, 2 windows opening onto the beautiful panorama of the Valdinievole below. To the far left is a stool counter which opens onto the kitchen, small but with every appliance needed. A small corridor with access to a storage/utility room and a master bedroom en-suite. The master bedroom has character to give away. Antique furnishing, white washed ceiling, well appointed en-suite with venetian plastered walls, and then the beautiful bed linen, which are part of the sale as everything seen in the images. From the far side of the living area there is access to another room, which would have been originally the man entrance hallway as it still has a blocked off entrance door which would bring to the other access to the property. This room, also with panoramic windows, can be used as a studio or second living room, but mostly becomes a second bedroom, with its own bathroom en-suite with a bath.

On the outside the terraced garden hosts a Jacuzzi with amazing views of the valley below and a covered terrace with an outdoor table and chairs.

The property is fully functional, connected to all main services and it is ready to live in.

The sale includes all the hard and soft furnishing, including the beautiful sets of bed and bathroom linen, the porcelain sets marked Richard Ginori, lovely cutlery and crockery, and everything else as seen in the images published.

The location is very quiet, made for those in search for tranquillity but at the same time close to other main attractions. It is a perfect second home to be used in all seasons, and also an excellent opportunity for holiday rental when not used.

It is not for the faint hearted; access to the house, like for the other residents in this part of the town, is on foot, while the car can be parked just a hundred metres below, unless you become a proper local resident, and buy yourself an Ape Piaggio.
