Small House To Restore

ITALY, TUSCANY, LUCCA, BAGNI DI LUCCA

In a beautiful area about 5km from the charming spa town of Bagni di Lucca, on the edge of an old village, we have this lovely little barn to restore.

On two floors, each measuring about 22 sqm metres, the building still has the old animal pens on the ground floor. The upper floor was used as a den by the previous owner's children, hence the interesting wall art!

The barn is located in a good location, being on the edge of an old village, with tarmac road going right up to the barn (really used only by one other house). To one side of the barn is an ideal parking place, to the other, is the garden, which will measure about 200 square metres (perhaps a little more, for negotiation) which has lovely views.

The house can be restored and a balcony and loggia added. It can also be extended but is equally charming as it is, as a small cottage with living room/kitchen downstairs (and loggia looking out over the hills) and bedroom and bathroom upstairs (with balcony added over the loggia if wished).

It would also be possible to install a pool.

Electricity and water are close by and easy to connect to.
Heating could be LPG or wood-burning stove.

Given its edge of village position, location, views and ease of access this is a great little project which should certainly be considered by those looking for this type of small restoration project.

There is a shop/bar in a nearby village (about 1.5km) and all the services of Bagni di Lucca (shops, restaurants, bars, post offices, banks, pharmacies, market, thermal baths, public pools, tennis club, theatre, train station, historic casino, suspension bridge and lots of history) are just 5km away.
