A rare opportunity to purchase a mountain house in stone with outbuildings, all in need of complete renovation, set on about 5 ha of woodland with river frontage in an idyllic area not far from the town of Barga.

Just 10 minutes by car outside one of the most beautiful medieval towns in Tuscany, Barga, lies this country house with several outbuildings, totally nestled on a mountain side with spectacular views and river frontage.
The property is in need of total loving renovation to restore it to a beautiful country home with great potential to provide several holiday units that could easily be rented to the ever-increasing tourist market in Barga.
In a small community of only four houses it is an oasis of peace and tranquillity.

The road leading to the property serves only three houses spread across the mountain side and no further building will ever be allowed.
The main house is built in stone and has five bedrooms, bathroom, a large live-in kitchen with enormous fireplace and a second reception room which could be used as a dining-room or study.
There is a storage room on the 2nd floor that could be converted into a 2nd bathroom. At ground level there are the "cantinas" which could be converted into extra rooms or used for storing wood, wine, oil, etc. as in former times.

Next door to the house is a 2nd stone building, where once the animals were housed, stretched and long it would easily convert to provide two apartments or even house an indoor swimming pool.

The property has about 11 acres of mountain woodland that slopes down to the river. This river frontage is one of the great attractions of the property as it provides a peaceful area for barbecues and picnics in the summer months. A private footpath leads from the house down to the river, where half way down there is a third building, a small two-storey "capanna", the land around which could be cleared to provide another summer outdoor eating area completely hidden and private in the midst of the woods.
Below the house there are the usual "terrazze", terraced land that was used by the family for growing vegetables.

Utilities: electricity on site, water comes directly from a mountain spring close to the property and needs to be linked.
