Fivizzano, Lunigiana, Tuscany, Italy

Located within the historic fabric of a traditional Lunigiana borgo, Casa Il Templare presents an opportunity to acquire a character-filled stone property with substantial architectural features and significant scope for transformation.
Extending to approximately 130 sqm across three levels, the house retains many of its original elements, including exposed stone walls, timber beams, a traditional stone fireplace and a series of vaulted spaces that reflect the rural heritage of the region.
The internal accommodation develops vertically through interconnected rooms, creating a layered arrangement of spaces well suited to a contemporary redesign project. The property offers generous volumes and considerable flexibility for reconfiguration, allowing future owners to create a distinctive village residence tailored to modern living.
Particularly notable are the extensive cellar and cantina areas at lower level, characterised by barrel-vaulted ceilings and atmospheric stone construction. These spaces provide excellent potential for wine storage, workshops, studio use or additional ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary permissions.
A small private garden is accessed directly from the first floor, while the upper level opens onto a panoramic terrace overlooking the Apuan Alps and the surrounding mountain landscape.
To the rear, the property follows one of the borgo's most picturesque lanes, where stone façades, passageways and traditional architectural details create the atmosphere for which Lunigiana's historic hilltop settlements are known.
The location combines the appeal of mountain village living with accessibility. The Tuscan coast, the gateway to the Cinque Terre and many of northern Tuscany's cultural destinations, can all be reached in under an hour.
A property defined by character, architectural authenticity and creative potential - offering the opportunity to shape a unique home within one of Tuscany's most authentic and lesser-known regions.
A renovation study, including layout proposals and estimated transformation costs, is available upon request.
