Description

Beautiful detached home with large garden in the heart of Tuscany, close to Lucca and the coast.

In a peaceful, sunny position, surrounded by nature and with fantastic views over the valley and hills, this lovely home offers total privacy whilst still easily accessible and close to restaurants, coffee bars and shops.

Accommodation comprises: bright kitchen / dining room opening onto a dining terrace, a big living room with fireplace, a store room (but can be used a study) with a door opening to the garden, plus laundry room, bathroom with shower, and under-stairs storage. The staircase leads to the first floor, where there are two bedrooms and a second bathroom with shower, plus a fantastic west-facing terrace with panoramic views. There is independent access to this level, if required.

The house is presently used for letting purposes and so on the first floor there is currently a second kitchen, while on the ground floor the living area has been divided with a sliding door to create a bedroom; it could easily be rearranged as a family home with two or three bedrooms.

Outside is a private garden of approx 1,700 sqm, (just under half an acre) with beautiful olive trees and a fabulous view. There is an above-ground swimming pool with technical room; it is likely that planning permission would be granted for an in-ground pool if required. The perfumes of aromatic herbs - thyme, sage and rosemary - complete the magic that surrounds the house, the terraces and the pool. The surrounding countryside is very beautiful: you can walk in the surrounding orchards and forests for hours, with many hiking trails linking ancient hamlets.

The house was fully renovated six years ago and it is presented in very good condition, with recent maintainance and redecoration works. There is air conditioning/heating adjustable within each room, a pellet stove in the kitchen plus a fireplace in the living room to keep the house cosy in the winter. There is plentiful hot water and good wifi. Private parking in the driveway for two cars, and also on the street for one car.

Many picturesque villages are dotted around the surrounding area, including Partigliano, Fondagno, and Pescaglia, with winding, narrow streets to explore. It is worth a trip to nearby Castiglione di Garfagnana with its castle and impressive defensive walls. There are many good restaurants in the area including Guzzanello Ristorante or Mulino della Volpe which serve typical Tuscan dishes and excellent 'porcini' mushrooms. In nearby Valdottavo (5 minutes drive), you'll find a small supermarket, friendy bar, and weekly market. Just 10 minutes' drive away you'll find the village of Diecimo with shops, coffee bars, ice cream and pizzeria, plus railway station. or the big Esselunga of Marlia close to Lucca is not far. The beautiful small city of Lucca is reachable in under 30 mins (by car, or train from Diecimo), while the coastal resorts of Pietrasanta and Viareggio are also close by.

Pietrasanta is a town set around a central piazza and flanked with lovely cafes and excellent restaurants. The town has always attracted artists and sculptors and there are many exhibitions held whether in the piazza or in one of the beautiful vaulted halls. Viareggio is set on the sea front with a wide golden beach and art deco buildings along the main street. There is a marina and excellent sailing opportunities. Viareggio is set at the end of the Versilia golden coast and is famous for the spectacular 'Carnevale'.

The town of Lucca is a walled historical city that endears itself to everyone who visits. Hidden behind imposing Renaissance walls the cobbled streets, elegant piazzas and shady promenades make it a perfect destination to explore on foot or riding the bicycles offered for rent in many points throughout the city. Lucca has many boutiques, historic cafes and restaurants and the 'anfiteatro' in the centre is perfect for sipping an aperitivo while watching piazza life. The nearby Torre del Lago hosts a summer Puccini festival in the Summer with evenings of opera set on the beautiful lake.

Distances: Valdottavo (shops, restaurant, cash machine, market) 5 km, Diecimo (shops, pizzas, ice creams) 5km, Bagni di Lucca 15 km, Lucca 20 km, Viareggio (beaches) 40 km, Pietrasanta 40 km, Pisa (airport) 45 km, Abetone (skiing) 50 km, Florence 90 km.
