Two independent village houses (which could be joined) on the 'borgo' of a traditional Lunigiana village. The first house is entered into a living room which follows through to the kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, all on one level. A patio area by the front door offers potential for outside dining. The other unit comprises a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and cupboard and it would be straightforward to join the two to produce a lovely three bed village house. The house is in good condition, although it would benefit from some modernising. There is central heating and all services are connected.There is a 'cantina' and a separate shed, and a sweet little garden. The immediate surroundings are peaceful and quiet, and yet the location is not isolated, as it is only around 5 kms to the village of Licciana Nardi.

Licciana Nardi in Lunigiana is a town in the Taverone valley with 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. Lunigiana is a magical part of Tuscany. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and for lovers of the coast the spectacular Ligurian coastline is close by. The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre are ideal for swimming and sailing in the summer. The area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are all just over an hour away.

Distances: Licciana Nardi 5 km, Aulla (supermarkets, autostrada, trains) 15 km, Lerici (beaches) 40 km, Cinque Terre 50 km, Lucca 90 km, Pisa (airport) 95 km.
