Villa In Casola In Lunigiana

Characterful Tuscan stone-built home, in two units, with terraces and gardens.

Located in a historic village a step away from Casola in Lunigiana, the property features traditional architecture, exposed wooden beams, terracotta floors and inviting, individually styled interiors.

The accommodation is arranged over several levels and with two separate units. Each includes living and dining areas, kitchen, and bedrooms. The interiors combine traditional architectural features with carefully selected antique furniture, and each unit has a beautiful fireplace as a central feature to the living area.

Extensive cantinas on the ground floor offer additional spaces for storage, laundry, workshop spaces etc.

Outside, the property offers stone-paved terraces, garden areas, a pergola covered with climbing plants and an ornamental pond. The outdoor spaces provide charming areas for ’al fresco dining’ and relaxing while enjoying views of the surrounding hills and woodland.

The property is suitable as a permanent residence or holiday home in Tuscany. Its layout and location also offers potential for tourism accommodation.

Close by, the pretty village of Codiponte has shops and a bar, plus beautiful views to the Apuan mountains and cobbled lanes leading to the river with rock pool for swimming. The larger village of Gragnola has a wider selection of shops and a train station with direct trains to Lucca. The ancient spa town of Equi Terme, with open air thermal water pool, river swimming and restaurants is a lovely place to spend the day.

The municipality of Casola in Lunigiana - as the name suggests - is situated in Lunigiana, a fascinating and still relatively undiscovered corner of Northern Tuscany. Renowned for its medieval castles, historic stone villages, walking trails, traditional cuisine and unspoilt landscapes, you can discover a more authentic side of Tuscany, away from the busiest tourist destinations yet rich in history, culture and natural beauty. The town of Casola itself is set on the hill above the Aulella river, with the houses clustered tightly around its central stone tower. The area is famous for stone statues which date back to the Neolithic age and are thought to be gifts to the moon goddess.

Lunigiana is a magical place to live and visit. While it remains a comparatively undiscovered and unspoilt part of Tuscany, it is neither isolated nor remote. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and for lovers of the coast the sea is only half-an-hour away. The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre are ideal for swimming and sailing. The area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are each just over an hour.

Distances: Equi Terme 10 km, Fivizzano 14 km, Aulla 19 km, Lerici (beaches) 40 km, Cinque Terre 45 km, Lucca 75 km, Pisa 95 km.
