A fully restored Tuscan detached farmhouse located 5 minutes from the village of Molazzana, 15 minutes from the towns of Gallicano and Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, in the beautiful mountains of the Garfagnana, northern Tuscany. Molazzana offers a bar, shop, pharmacy and post office. The larger towns offer all amenities.

Stazzana is a wonderful example of traditional workmanship and modern materials, and the owners have created a warm and welcoming home with stunning views over the 40 acres that the property includes. The property is accessed via a 1 km white road leading through the woods to the house, so the location is secluded and a small 4×4 vehicle is required. There is in addition a large characterful barn needing renovation, a chestnut house, and two further barns, so there is a great potential here to create a holiday business or agriturismo.

The property is 148m2 and has recently been renovated to a high standard. The property is fully insulated and benefits from solar panels and all new fixtures and fittings. All work has been fully signed off with the relevant authorities and has certificates. The home is heated in winter by the wood burning range, and the solar panels provide hot water. There is a private water source with a filter and UV system. Wireless internet supply (eolo) and security camera system installed. The roof, floors and double glazed windows are all made from locally sourced traditional chestnut wood.

The property is surrounded by its own land, 16 hectares (40 acres) of arable and woodland, crossed by a brook. The property owns two private springs.
