2 bedrooms house, 184 m²

Aulla, Massa-Carrara (province)

Lunigiana

This charming detached stone house sits in a tranquil setting, enjoying wide-open views across the rolling hills of Lunigiana, the unspoiled northern corner of Tuscany. A true turnkey property, the villa has been carefully restored with great attention to preserving its original character, while updating the living spaces for comfort and practicality. Original features include exposed wooden beams, a working fireplace, and terracotta-style floors. These are balanced with updated bathrooms and a well-fitted kitchen, giving the home a warm, inviting feeling – ideal for year-round living or as a lock-up-and-leave holiday home. The house is located in a quiet residential area just outside the historic centre of Aulla, one of the main towns in the region. With the train station, supermarkets, shops, cafés, restaurants, and even medical facilities just a short walk away, you have everything at your doorstep – a rare convenience in a countryside property. From the gated entrance, a private driveway leads to the house, where a covered veranda runs along the front – a perfect space for outdoor dining or simply relaxing while admiring the views. Inside, the ground floor features a cosy living room with a fireplace, a country kitchen, a double bedroom, and a modern bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find a large master suite with its own bathroom, plus an additional flexible-use room that could serve as a third bedroom, study, or creative studio, all with panoramic countryside views. Outside, the property is surrounded by a garden with mature fruit trees, and includes additional land suitable for a vegetable garden, landscaping projects, or outdoor living areas. A detached outbuilding (cantina) offers excellent storage and has potential for workshop or guest annex conversion. The home is perfectly placed for exploring both Tuscany and Liguria. Within a 30–40 minute drive, you can reach the stunning Ligurian coastline, including Lerici, Tellaro, and the Cinque Terre. Portovenere and the Gulf of Poets are just as close and offer ferry connections, seaside walks, and excellent swimming spots. To the east and south, Lucca, Pisa, and Florence offer outstanding day trips rich in art, architecture, and dining. Closer to home, the surrounding hills are dotted with medieval villages like Licciana Nardi and Monti, each with their own castles, narrow stone streets, and lively seasonal festivals celebrating local wine, chestnuts, truffles, and more. This area is a hidden gem of Tuscany – authentic, peaceful, and well connected. The autostrada is 5 minutes away, and international airports in Pisa, Parma, and Genoa can all be reached in just over an hour. Whether you're looking for a permanent residence, a vacation getaway, or a property with rental potential, this lovely villa offers the best of traditional charm, comfort, and accessibility.
