Rustico Molazzana

In the most authentic and dramatic part of Garfagnana, in a commanding position above the medieval village of Sassi, this charming stone hamlet enjoys extraordinary views over the Apuan Alps and a truly rare natural setting.

Here, Tuscany is still deeply authentic: forests, silence, hiking trails, small stone villages, and a lifestyle far removed from conventional tourism. A place designed for those seeking privacy, nature, and authenticity, immersed in one of the most evocative landscapes of northern Tuscany.

Originally dating back to the 18th century and fully restored in keeping with the local architectural tradition, the property consists of three independent stone buildings, perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape.

The main villa, approximately 200 sqm, offers warm and welcoming interiors typical of Tuscan mountain homes, featuring a large living room with fireplace, eat-in kitchen, four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and beautiful panoramic views.

Adjacent to the villa is a second stone farmhouse of approximately 170 sqm, also carefully restored using original materials, comprising a living room with fireplace, kitchen, four bedrooms, and three bathrooms.

Completing the estate is a third independent unit of approximately 80 sqm, ideal as a guest house or private dependance, with living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom, and a covered loggia overlooking the surrounding landscape.

The property preserves all the charm of traditional Tuscan architecture, with original stone structures, terracotta floors, exposed wooden beams, and chestnut wood window frames, combined with renovated and fully functional systems.

The outdoor spaces are among the most captivating features of the estate: approximately 1.5 hectares of terraced and fenced land, additional woodland and chestnut groves, pergolas, outdoor dining areas, barbecue area, and a stunning 9 x 5 metre panoramic swimming pool completely immersed in nature and privacy.

Its intentionally secluded mountain setting makes this property ideal as:

a charming private residence,
a nature retreat,
a hospitality business,
or an experiential tourism and wellness project.

This is not a “convenient” or urban property, but rather an authentic place deeply connected to its territory, designed for those who wish to experience the most genuine and unspoiled side of Tuscany.

Molazzana and the Garfagnana region offer a unique landscape setting, with mountains, medieval villages, hiking trails, untouched nature, and traditions that remain beautifully preserved.
