REAL ESTATE FOR SALE (€ Euro 155,000)
Farmhouse for sale in Barga (Lucca) Lucca Tuscany Italy

Country house for restoration with land and outbuildings

This property is situated just outside of a medieval village with easy access to the services back down on the valley floor. This is a classic stone building, with a beautiful arched doorway, terrace to the front and great views. A 1960s cowshed is attached to the building. This part of the house is in very sound condition and offers 2 very large rooms once restored.

The rest of the house is full of original features with 2 fireplaces, chesnut beams and terracotta tiles. It is in need of restoration. The walls seem sound, most of the flooring is in reasonable condition, there is a temporary roof over the structure to prevent further deterioration.

There is also an issue with access. The property lies about 300M off the road which runs up to the village. There are a number of options and permission and rights of way have been negotiated to put in a road. Depending on the option chosen, the road could cost between Euros 20, 000 and 30,000. However there is also a grassy path which goes all the way to the house and some improvement of this could be a very much cheaper option, at least initially.

There are 7 hectares of land with great views. There are also at least 2 barns included with the sale, one of which is large and could be made into a further habitation.

This property needs lots of work, but all the ingredients are here for a perfect Tuscan home; great stone work, interesting features, lots of land, room for a pool, out-buildings, views etc.
