Tucked away in the picturesque heartland of the Tuscan region, this delightful 2-bedroom terraced house in Borgo a Mozzano, Lucca, waits for someone with an eye for Italian charm and tranquillity. Offering an inviting ambiance in the heart of Tuscany, the dwelling is located in the charismatic hamlet of Castello – a stone’s throw from all conveniences but far from the madding crowd.
Find your way into this cosy abode via a charming stone staircase, a unique touch to its quaint allure. Depending on your preference, you can either leave your vehicle at the village's pinnacle and descend, or park in the lower car park and ascend. Both options offer a scenic journey to your new home, emphasizing its secluded and authentic atmosphere.
Upon arrival, a small utility area greets you, perfectly equipped to house your washing machine, before branching off into a snug study area. Next, the house unfurls into a inviting living room, complete with a soothing fireplace, perfect for those cooler autumn nights. This subtly leads to a homely kitchen/dining room, rounded out by charming French doors.
Open these doors, and you find yourself on a covered terrace offering breathtaking views of the lush valley floor and the towering heights of the final mountains of the Alpi Apuane. This outdoor space is truly a gem, adding an element of serene al fresco living to your everyday routine.
The staircase takes you up to two generously sized double bedrooms and a bathroom that gives a nod to simple Tuscan design. From the top floor, another door leads back of the house to a two-story barn. This unique aspect of the property comes with a promise of a fixer-upper journey into creating a space of your dreams, whether it be a guest house, studio, or a workshop.
Steps away from the house, some land lies flat, perfect for cultivating a vegetable garden or creating an outdoor dining area. Adding to the charm of this enticing home, green olive groves encircle the property, which faces south, basking in abundant sunlight.
The local town of Valdottavo is just a quick, six-minute drive away, providing you with access to grocery stores, a quaint bar, a delightful restaurant, and a post office. The bustling city of Lucca is not far, just under 30 minutes, offering you a bigger variety of amenities and attractions, yet your home remains a peaceful escape.
Nestled within Italy, Tuscany is famous for its temperate climate. Mild springs and autumns, warm summers, and cool but not freezing winters add to the attractiveness of making this province your own. With hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters, the weather in Borgo a Mozzano makes both indoor and outdoor living enjoyable.
