Description
in the heart of the lush hills of Castiglione di Garfagnana, surrounded by the majesty of the Apuan Alps, lies the Borgo di Carpineta, an enchanting place where time seems to stand still, and the air is filled with magic. This property, acquired more than 30 years ago by a passionate family, has been transformed into a charming example of historic living combined with a successful agritourism activity.
The borgo extends over 10 hectares of land and includes several renovated buildings, including the main residence of about 200 sqm. The house is the epitome of Tuscan tradition, with spacious rooms and typical details of rural homes, ideal for living immersed in nature while enjoying modern comforts. in addition to the main residence, there is a small multi-purpose laboratory for transforming the farm's products, and a former metato (a traditional drying hut), now converted into a 40 sqm chalet, where the breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains creates a unique, relaxing atmosphere.
A nearby building, once the manor house of the farm, has been converted into two spacious independent studios with kitchenettes, perfect for hosting tourists or family members. On the ground floor of this building, a large room, once used as a dining hall for numerous summer guests, now hosts a small cellar and is used for storing agricultural products such as spelt, cornmeal, jams, syrups, and wild fruit gelatins prepared by Mrs. Annamaria, as well as honey, walnuts, hazelnuts, and wine for personal use and catering for guests.
in a quiet corner of the borgo, there is also a swimming pool offering a stunning view of the Apuan Alps, perfect for relaxation after a day immersed in nature and the history of this extraordinary place.
Castiglione di Garfagnana is a fortified town, part of the Most Beautiful Villages of italy, just a short drive from the historic cities of Lucca, Pisa, and Florence, and the fashionable Versilia, with the renowned destinations of Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi. This property represents a unique opportunity for those seeking a historic residence in an untouched natural setting, yet still well connected to the main art cities of Tuscany and the Tyrrhenian coast.
