Description

Picture yourself stepping through wrought-iron gates into your private Tuscan retreat, where morning espresso on a portico terrace overlooks the rolling Lunigiana hills, castle silhouettes dotting the horizon as the morning mist lifts. This 416-square-meter villa in Villafranca in Lunigiana offers something increasingly rare in Tuscany: authentic village life combined with modern sustainability, just a five-minute walk from train connections that whisk you to coastal beaches in thirty minutes or Florence's Renaissance treasures in under two hours. Welcome to your Lunigiana vacation home, where Tuscany's overlooked corner reveals itself as a perfect blend of mountain tranquility and coastal accessibility. This five-bedroom villa represents the ideal second home for families seeking year-round Tuscan authenticity without tourist crowds. The property sits within Villafranca's residential fabric, close enough to walk to morning pastries at the local café yet surrounded by 1,500 square meters of landscaped gardens that create complete privacy. Unlike tourist-heavy destinations further south, Lunigiana remains genuinely Italian, where local markets pulse with seasonal produce and restaurant menus change with what grows in nearby valleys. Your daily rhythm here follows the natural cadence of Tuscan village life. Morning begins on the covered portico, where the terrace captures eastern light perfect for breakfast while planning the day ahead. Walk into town for fresh bread, stopping to chat with shopkeepers who quickly recognize regular faces. Return home through your gated entrance, arms full of local cheese and wine, ready to prepare lunch in the fitted kitchen that opens directly onto terrace space ideal for outdoor dining. Afternoons might mean exploring marked footpaths that crisscross these hills, leading to medieval castles and mountain viewpoints, or driving thirty-five kilometers to Lerici's golden beaches for swimming in the Ligurian Sea. The villa's layout maximizes both family togetherness and personal space across its generous proportions. The ground floor centers on a dining and living room anchored by a working fireplace, the kind of gathering space that becomes command central during family holidays. Five bedrooms and three bathrooms on this level mean everyone has comfortable quarters, while the fitted kitchen's direct terrace access makes indoor-outdoor living effortless during warm months. The study provides workspace for those balancing remote work with vacation time, increasingly important for modern second-home owners. Upstairs, the attic level transforms the property's potential, offering three additional rooms and a bathroom that could serve multiple purposes: guest quarters for extended family visits, a creative studio, home cinema, or children's playroom. Storage space here solves the practical challenge of maintaining a vacation home across seasons, with room for sports equipment, holiday decorations, and off-season furniture. On the ground floor, the taverna with its own fireplace creates perfect gathering space for cooler evenings, functioning as a hobby room, wine-tasting area, or casual dining space when you want a different atmosphere from the main living areas. The substantial 93-square-meter garage provides secure parking for multiple vehicles plus storage for bicycles, hiking gear, and beach equipment. Two basement rooms and a dedicated boiler room address practical maintenance needs while keeping mechanical systems organized and accessible. Energy efficiency sets this property apart from typical older Italian homes. Photovoltaic panels connected to an inverter battery system significantly reduce electricity costs, particularly valuable for a vacation home where you want systems running efficiently even during absences. Solar panels provide hot water, while the diesel central heating system ensures comfort during winter visits. These sustainable features lower ongoing costs and align with modern environmental consciousness, making the property more attractive to potential renters during periods when you're not in residence. The surrounding land package includes approximately 1,500 square meters beyond the immediate garden, offering expansion possibilities, vegetable gardens, or simply maintained green space that ensures your views remain open and private. Mature landscaping frames the villa, creating outdoor rooms for different times of day and various activities, from morning yoga to evening aperitivo. Villafranca in Lunigiana occupies a strategic position in northern Tuscany's Lunigiana valley, equidistant between Aulla and Pontremoli. This location provides genuine immersion in Tuscan culture while maintaining excellent connectivity. The railway station one kilometer away connects to the main line between Genoa and Rome, making car-free travel feasible for guests arriving from major cities. The town center, easily reached on foot, contains banks, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, and a weekly market where local farmers sell seasonal produce directly. This walkability factor cannot be overstated for vacation-home ownership; the ability to live car-free for days at a time enhances the relaxation factor and reduces the property's operational complexity. Lunigiana itself remains one of Tuscany's best-kept secrets, a region where Medici and Malaspina castles punctuate landscapes that transition from Apennine foothills to Ligurian coast within forty-five minutes. Spring brings wild asparagus and mushroom foraging, summer opens hiking trails through chestnut forests, autumn delivers truffle season and grape harvest festivals, while winter sees snow-dusted peaks visible from valley floors. The region's cuisine blends Tuscan heartiness with Ligurian coastal influences: testaroli pasta, herb-rich focaccia, local lamb, porcini mushrooms, and wines from nearby vineyards that tourists rarely discover. Coastal access defines Lunigiana's appeal for vacation-home buyers. Lerici's sandy beaches lie thirty-five kilometers west, offering family-friendly swimming, sailing, and waterfront dining. The Cinque Terre's famous pebble coves and cliffside villages sit slightly further, accessible for day trips without the accommodation costs of staying directly in those tourist magnets. This proximity means you can breakfast in mountain tranquility and lunch beside Mediterranean waters, the kind of flexibility that makes vacation time feel expansive and varied. Cultural richness surrounds the property. Lucca's Renaissance walls and towers await ninety kilometers south, Pisa's architectural wonders sit ninety-four kilometers away, and Florence's artistic treasures lie one hundred sixty kilometers distant, all manageable as day trips or overnight excursions. Closer still, Pontremoli hosts Italy's oldest bookshop and September's Bancarella literary prize, while numerous medieval villages crown nearby hilltops, each with distinctive character and local festivals throughout the year. The investment perspective merits consideration. At 450,000 euros for 416 square meters plus outbuildings and land, this villa offers substantially more space and land than comparable budgets provide in tourist-heavy Tuscan destinations. The move-in ready condition means immediate enjoyment without renovation stress, while the property's size and layout suit rental income generation during periods of owner absence. Lunigiana's growing recognition among informed travelers creates rental demand from guests seeking authentic Tuscany away from overcrowded hotspots. International buyers will find Tuscany's property market well-established for foreign ownership, with straightforward purchase processes and English-speaking legal professionals available. Italian property law protects buyer interests, while various ownership structures accommodate different tax situations. The property's connection to mains water and electricity, plus its modern energy systems, reduces operational complexity for owners living abroad between visits. Key Features: Five bedrooms and three bathrooms on the main floor with additional attic rooms; 416 square meters of living space plus 93-square-meter garage; Covered portico terrace with valley and mountain views; Working fireplaces in living room and taverna; Photovoltaic panels with inverter battery plus solar hot water; Diesel central heating system throughout; 1,500 square meters of additional land beyond private gardens; Walking distance to Villafranca train station and town amenities; Fitted kitchen with direct terrace access; Ground-floor taverna ideal for entertaining; Attic level with three rooms, bathroom, and storage; Two basement rooms and dedicated boiler room; Gated entrance with private driveway; Move-in ready condition requiring no immediate work; Strategic location between mountains and Mediterranean coast. This villa represents more than a vacation property; it's your gateway to authentic Tuscan living in a region where life retains genuine Italian character. Whether you envision multi-generational family gatherings, a base for exploring northern Italy's diverse attractions, or a rental investment in an emerging market, this Villafranca property delivers space, sustainability, and lifestyle in equal measure. Contact Homestra today to arrange your viewing and discover how this Lunigiana villa can become your Italian second home, where every visit reconnects you with the rhythms and pleasures that make Tuscany eternally appealing.

The first thing you notice on a summer morning at this Putzolu villa is the silence. Not the eerie, empty kind — the kind that costs something. Cicadas in the macchia, a faint breeze moving through the cork oaks, and the distant shimmer of the Gallura hills sitting still against a cloudless sky. Then you remember: you're five minutes from Olbia's city center and 20 minutes from some of the most coveted coastline in the Mediterranean. That combination is genuinely rare. Sardinia gets written about a lot, but usually through the lens of the Costa Smeralda's superyacht scene — Porto Cervo, the Billionaire Club, the July crowds. What doesn't get written about enough is the real Olbia. The Tuesday morning market on Via Nanni where locals argue over which vendor has the better seadas, the fried pastry pockets of ricotta and honey that are basically a religious experience. The evening passeggiata along Corso Umberto that starts slow and somehow ends at midnight over a bottle of Vermentino di Gallura at a terrace bar. This villa puts you inside that rhythm, not observing it from a resort. The property sits on approximately 1.5 hectares of private land in the Putzolu area, one of those semi-rural pockets just outside Olbia that manages to feel a world away from the city while actually being about a five-minute drive from it. A flat garden of roughly 3,000 square meters wraps immediately around the house — and this isn't the kind of garden you maintain out of obligation. It's the kind you actually use. Space for a proper dining terrace, a future pool if you want one, a bocce court, a vegetable patch. The surrounding land buffers you from neighbors in every direction. The villa itself spans 214 square meters across two levels. T ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Sunday morning in late October, and the smell of woodsmoke is already drifting up from the valley below. You're sitting on the terrace outside the kitchen, coffee in hand, watching the first light catch the silver undersides of your olive leaves. The hills roll away in every direction — golden, green, impossibly quiet. This is not a postcard. This is your garden. This 200-square-metre country villa outside Chianni sits on roughly five acres (20,000 sqm) of mixed land — working olive groves, open meadows, patches of woodland — and it's the kind of property that becomes a reference point for the rest of your life. Not because of grand architectural gestures, but because of what it actually feels like to be there. The house arrives in good, liveable condition, which matters more than people give it credit for. You won't be gutting a ruin or project-managing a rebuild from another country. You can arrive, unlock the door, and start living — then improve things at your own pace. The pellet boiler provides central heating and hot water throughout, and all windows are double-glazed, which means the place stays genuinely warm through the Tuscan winter, not just decoratively Tuscan. What makes the layout especially interesting is that the accommodation currently runs as two independent units. The main section is entered via an external staircase that leads up to a first-floor terrace — a landing wide enough to actually eat at, which becomes your default dinner table from April through October. Inside, a generous open-plan kitchen with pantry flows into a sitting room anchored by a freestanding fireplace positioned in the centre of the room. It draws the eye immediately. Two bedrooms occupy this level, one ... click here to read more

Sunday morning in the Valdera hills smells like woodsmoke and rosemary. You push open the kitchen door, coffee in hand, and the whole of Tuscany rolls out in front of you — a long slow exhale of olive groves, vineyards, and medieval tower tops catching the early light. No neighbour in sight. Just the faint toll of a bell from Rivalto drifting up the hillside, and the crunch of gravel under your feet as you walk to the pergola table for breakfast. This is the quiet that people spend years trying to find. This two-bedroom renovated farmhouse sits above the Valdera hills near the village of Chianni, on a private plot of just over 10,000 square metres — about two and a half acres of fruit trees, old stone walls, and open sky. At 150 square metres of interior living space, it's compact enough to feel intimate, generous enough to host family comfortably. The renovation has been done with a sure hand: modern infrastructure underneath, authentically Tuscan on the surface. Terracotta floors, exposed stone, wooden beams — nothing that jars with the landscape outside the window. On the ground floor, a glass-enclosed living and dining room opens the whole hill view into the house without losing warmth in winter. The kitchen runs alongside it, practical and well-equipped. There's a tavern — a sitting room that converts easily to a TV room or reading corner — plus a bedroom and bathroom. What was once a woodshed now houses a jacuzzi. The cellar holds an aluminium wine barrel and a pizza oven, which tells you something about how the previous owners spent their evenings and gives you a very good template to follow. Upstairs, two further bedrooms, quiet and cool in summer, take in the wide panorama from above. A 40-square-metre garage ... click here to read more

July in Lajatico. The sun drops behind the cypress-lined ridge, the air cools just enough to make sitting outside feel like a reward, and somewhere across the valley you can hear the distant swell of an orchestra drifting up from the Teatro del Silenzio. You're on your own terrace, a glass of Vernaccia di San Gimignano in hand, watching the last gold light drag itself across a landscape that hasn't fundamentally changed since the Etruscans farmed these same hills. That's not a fantasy — that's Tuesday evening when you own this three-bedroom stone villa outside Lajatico. Set on one of the finest elevated positions in the Valdera, the property commands an unobstructed 360-degree panorama of rolling Tuscan farmland. No neighbor blocking your east-facing view. No road noise creeping up from below. Just that particular silence — birdsong, wind through the olive trees, the creak of the wooden shutters in the afternoon breeze — that people drive hundreds of kilometers and pay serious money to find for a single weekend. The house itself has been built in the tradition of a Tuscan cascina, which means it doesn't try to look rustic. It actually is. Stone walls cut from the local hillside, handmade terracotta cotto tiles underfoot, thick wooden ceiling beams left exposed the way they've always been in farmhouses across this province. The difference here is that behind the traditional skin sits genuinely contemporary infrastructure. Underfloor heating runs throughout, powered partly by solar panels. Air conditioning handles both heating and cooling for the shoulder seasons. Double-glazed wooden windows keep the interior thermally efficient without sacrificing the old-world look. The insulation meets Italy's current Class A energy ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Tuesday morning in late September, the kind of morning that makes you want to cancel everything. You're standing on your upstairs terrace with a coffee, watching the mist slowly pull back from the Apennine ridgeline, and the only sound is a woodpecker somewhere in the fig tree below. That's the daily reality of owning this three-bedroom villa in the Lunigiana hills of northern Tuscany — a place most Italians know about and most foreigners haven't found yet. That's not an accident. Lunigiana sits in the crease between Tuscany, Liguria, and Emilia-Romagna, technically within Tuscany's administrative borders but with a character entirely its own. Fewer tour buses. More castles per square kilometre than almost anywhere in Italy. Hiking trails that cut through chestnut forests older than the republic. And properties like this one — solid, well-maintained villas on quiet lanes with proper gardens and proper views — that would cost twice as much if they sat twenty kilometres further south in the Chianti. The villa itself is 208 square metres across three levels, and it's been kept in genuinely good condition. This isn't a project. The finish is high-end throughout: marble bathrooms, solid wood and marble kitchen, beamed ceilings in the main living room. The first floor is where daily life happens — a wide entrance hall opens into a living room with a fireplace that earns its keep in November, french doors spilling out onto a covered patio where you can eat dinner outside well into October without needing a jumper. The kitchen is fully fitted and connects to the same covered patio, so cooking and outdoor living flow into each other the way they should in a Tuscan country house. Two bedrooms on this level ... click here to read more

On a clear morning, you push open the shutters of the upstairs bedroom and the Apuan Alps are just there — close enough that you can trace the ridgelines with your finger, white-tipped in winter, darkly forested through July and August. The smell drifting up from the kitchen is coffee, and somewhere below the terrace an olive grove is already warm in the early sun. This is your Tuesday. Imagine your Saturday. Sitting at the end of a quiet lane outside Aulla in the Lunigiana corner of Tuscany, this two-bedroom, four-bathroom stone villa sits on four hectares of land — olives, fruit trees, vines — and feels genuinely removed from the world while remaining surprisingly easy to reach. It's the kind of property that gets into your head the first time you visit and doesn't leave. The house itself has the bones that matter. Thick stone walls keep rooms cool well into the afternoon heat of August. A wisteria-covered portico frames the entrance, and inside, the living room pivots around an impressive stone fireplace that earns its keep from November through March. The kitchen-dining room has marble surfaces and a marble sink — not an affectation, just the way kitchens were built here, and still the best material for rolling pasta dough. There's a utility space tucked out of sight with a washing machine, a ground-floor WC, and a separate ground-floor room — flooded with light on three sides — that opens directly onto the garden and has its own ensuite shower. Upstairs, two double bedrooms each have their own ensuite facilities: one with a bath, one with a shower, both with air conditioning for the peak summer weeks. The first bedroom steps out onto a large terrace where those mountain views hit you full in the face. Every room i ... click here to read more

Stand at the top floor of this three-storey farmhouse on a clear October morning and you'll see why people have been building on these hills since the Etruscans figured out the view was worth it. The Valdera valley rolls out below in every direction — vineyards going amber, cypress rows casting long shadows, and the faint outline of Volterra's medieval towers on the western ridge. This is what 360-degree actually means, not the estate-agent shorthand version. The farmhouse sits about 5 kilometres from Casciana Terme Lari, a small spa town that most Tuscany visitors drive straight past on the way to Pisa or Florence, which is precisely what keeps it real. The weekly Thursday market on the central piazza draws local farmers selling pecorino, dried porcini, and Valdera olive oil pressed from trees that have been on the same hillsides for centuries. The Bar Centrale opens early. The locals are not performing for tourists. That's the thing about this corner of central Tuscany — it hasn't been discovered yet, not in the way that San Gimignano or Montepulciano have, and the property prices reflect exactly that. At 450 square metres across three floors, with roughly a hectare of land wrapping around it, this is a serious restoration project. No connected services, no EPC required — it comes to you as a shell with good bones, waiting for someone with a vision and a decent architect. The structure is solid stone, the kind that was built to outlast everyone involved in building it. What you're buying here is a blank canvas on some of the most quietly coveted land in Pisa province, at a price that reflects the work ahead rather than the finished article. For buyers who've watched completed Tuscan farmhouses sell at twice this figu ... click here to read more

Picture yourself waking to the soft golden light filtering through centuries-old stone walls, the only sounds breaking the morning silence being birdsong echoing across the valley and the distant tolling of church bells from hilltop villages. This is the reality awaiting you at this 327-square-meter stone farmhouse, perched on a panoramic mountainside just 13 kilometers from the Renaissance town of Città di Castello, where authentic Umbrian country living meets the freedom to create your perfect Italian retreat. Spread across 5 hectares of private land, this property offers something increasingly rare in modern Umbria: genuine privacy combined with convenient accessibility. The approach via asphalt road followed by just 200 meters of white gravel track strikes that perfect balance between seclusion and practicality, meaning you can escape to your countryside sanctuary without sacrificing connectivity to essential services and cultural experiences. The main 227-square-meter farmhouse, delivered in builder's finish condition, presents a blank canvas for international buyers seeking to craft their vision of Italian country life, while the 100-square-meter annex opens possibilities for guest accommodations, artist studios, or rental income opportunities. Life in this corner of northern Umbria unfolds according to nature's calendar and the region's agricultural traditions. Spring transforms the surrounding hillsides into patchworks of wildflowers and new vineyards, while autumn brings truffle hunting season to nearby forests and harvest festivals in every village square. Your 5 hectares could support olive groves, vegetable gardens, or simply remain a private natural sanctuary where deer and wild boar occasionally wander th ... click here to read more

Picture yourself standing on a hillside in the heart of Tuscany's Valdera region, where the morning mist slowly lifts to reveal a 360-degree panorama of rolling countryside, medieval villages perched on distant hills, and rows of dark cypress trees cutting across golden fields. This is the view that greets you from your own 450-square-meter farmhouse on three levels, set on 2.5 acres of Tuscan land just five kilometers from the historic spa town of Casciana Terme. Here, halfway between the ancient Etruscan settlement of Volterra and the iconic Leaning Tower of Pisa, you'll discover a vacation home opportunity that places you at the geographic and cultural heart of one of Italy's most celebrated regions. This is your chance to create a bespoke retreat in Tuscany, shaped entirely to your vision, in a location that offers both peaceful countryside living and extraordinary access to art, cuisine, and Mediterranean coastline. The farmhouse requires complete restoration, presenting a rare blank canvas for international buyers who want to craft their ideal Tuscan vacation home from the ground up. Spread across three levels, the 450-square-meter structure offers generous space to design multiple bedroom suites, entertainment areas, and those essential elements of Italian country living: a proper kitchen for long Sunday lunches, terraces for evening aperitivos, and perhaps a reading room where afternoon light filters through restored shutters. The absence of existing systems means you'll install modern heating, plumbing, and electrical infrastructure to contemporary standards while preserving the authentic stone walls and architectural character that make Tuscan farmhouses so desirable. The restoration journey, while requiring in ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Tuesday morning in late September, the kind of morning that makes you want to cancel everything. You're standing on your upstairs terrace with a coffee, watching the mist slowly pull back from the Apennine ridgeline, and the only sound is a woodpecker somewhere in the fig tree below. That's the daily reality of owning this three-bedroom villa in the Lunigiana hills of northern Tuscany — a place most Italians know about and most foreigners haven't found yet. That's not an accident. Lunigiana sits in the crease between Tuscany, Liguria, and Emilia-Romagna, technically within Tuscany's administrative borders but with a character entirely its own. Fewer tour buses. More castles per square kilometre than almost anywhere in Italy. Hiking trails that cut through chestnut forests older than the republic. And properties like this one — solid, well-maintained villas on quiet lanes with proper gardens and proper views — that would cost twice as much if they sat twenty kilometres further south in the Chianti. The villa itself is 208 square metres across three levels, and it's been kept in genuinely good condition. This isn't a project. The finish is high-end throughout: marble bathrooms, solid wood and marble kitchen, beamed ceilings in the main living room. The first floor is where daily life happens — a wide entrance hall opens into a living room with a fireplace that earns its keep in November, french doors spilling out onto a covered patio where you can eat dinner outside well into October without needing a jumper. The kitchen is fully fitted and connects to the same covered patio, so cooking and outdoor living flow into each other the way they should in a Tuscan country house.
