Comano, Lunigiana, Tuscany, Italy

CHARACTER TUSCAN FARMHOUSE WITH GARDEN
A semi-detached farmhouse with approximately 312 sq m of internal space over two floors, including cellars, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an eat-in kitchen and a living room. Around the house, approximately 648 sq m of fenced land includes fruit and nut trees, complemented by two courtyards and a terrace.
Set in an unspoilt meadow between two picturesque stone hamlets, the property enjoys an open outlook across the valley, with fields and a small stream forming its immediate surroundings. Independent access is provided by a newly laid concrete road leading to a gated entrance.
This is a home for those who appreciate original craftsmanship and the pleasures of country living, with scope to update the interiors while retaining their distinctive Tuscan character.
THE HOUSE
Ornate stone fireplaces, wooden doors and door frames, painted timber beams, and carved and painted ceiling decorations give the farmhouse its individual charm. Traditional Tuscan floor tiles bring warm, earthy colours to the rooms.
The original pizza oven evokes the simple pleasures of preparing food, sharing a meal and spending an evening with family and friends.
The accommodation includes an eat-in kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Recorded internal areas extend to approximately 160 sq m on the ground floor and 152 sq m on the first floor, including the cellar spaces.
The spacious cellars offer possibilities for convivial dining and entertaining rooms in the Italian "taverna" tradition, subject to suitability and any necessary permissions.
A NEW CHAPTER
The farmhouse would benefit from modernisation and aesthetic renovation throughout.
The kitchen and bathrooms would benefit from updating, while the electrical installation and independent heating system require upgrading. The external façade needs cosmetic refurbishment, and interior redecoration and restyling are advised.
Its appeal lies in the opportunity to introduce contemporary comfort around the existing fireplaces, decorated woodwork and original floors, creating a welcoming home that retains its sense of place.
LIFE OUTSIDE
The fenced land offers room to garden, tend the fruit and nut trees, and find a favourite spot for an outdoor meal or a quiet afternoon overlooking the valley.
Courtyards of approximately 100 sq m and 13 sq m, together with an uncovered terrace of approximately 8 sq m, provide further outdoor space.
There is potential to install a swimming pool, subject to feasibility and the necessary permissions. A short walk also leads to a clear-water mountain torrent with natural pools-an appealing place to enjoy the surrounding landscape during summer.
WALKING, FOOD AND COMMUNITY
Marked paths invite walks through fields, woodland and neighbouring stone hamlets.
Two local agriturismi are approximately 20 minutes away on foot, along routes with uphill and downhill sections. They offer opportunities to enjoy regional cooking, local produce and wines, with horse riding and other countryside experiences available locally. One also offers access to its swimming pool, subject to its arrangements and availability.
Deer and wild boar inhabit the wider landscape, where seasonal wild fruit and mushrooms reflect the richness of the surrounding countryside.
BETWEEN THE APENNINES AND THE SEA
In the municipality of Comano, this property offers a base for discovering Lunigiana, a part of northern Tuscany shaped by mountain landscapes, historic villages and rural traditions.
The route towards the Lagastrello Pass follows a landscape associated with the historic salt road between the coast and the Parma side of the Apennines. Higher up, woodland, upland pastures and glacial lakes offer another world to explore.
For a change of scenery, the Ligurian coast invites outings towards Lerici and the wider Riviera. Motorway connections through Aulla provide routes towards Lucca, Parma, Genoa and beyond.
A garden to cultivate, original rooms to restore and countryside to explore: this farmhouse offers the opportunity to make Tuscan country life your own.
