130 m\u00b2 ground-floor flat with a 280 m\u00b2 garden and a 130 m\u00b2 basement, forming part of a historic villa, for sale: a Tuscan property with history, character and potential<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Flat<\/h3>\n

Built at the turn of the century, this beautiful villa retains its original charm whilst offering scope for modernisation. The fully renovated flat offers around 130 m\u00b2 of living space, comprising four spacious living and bedroom areas, a fully fitted kitchen with a dining area, a pellet stove in the former fireplace, views over a very attractive medieval village, a large, newly designed bathroom, and access to both the front and rear sections of the lovingly landscaped garden. Particularly charming is the frescoed room with its old original tiles and the sense that many stories have unfolded here over the years. The property is also fully equipped from a technical perspective: connection to the public sewerage system, as well as electricity, gas and water, and a reliable internet connection, plus a new gas boiler.<\/p>\n

Basement and garden<\/h3>\n

The ground-floor flat has a full basement: two entrances lead into a spacious, dry basement\/semi-basement \u2013 one via the former garage, the other via the garden. Connected by small corridors, rooms and a summer kitchen, this space offers plenty of scope for creative ideas: storage, a workshop, a studio or a wine cellar. Due to the property\u2019s hillside location, the rooms have direct, level access to the rear garden, whilst a flight of stairs leads to the flat and a small, cosy terrace (at the front, the entrance to the flat is at ground level). The basement\/cellar and the rear fa\u00e7ade are in need of renovation.<\/p>\n

The fully fenced garden is a place of tranquillity, space and character. In the 125 m\u00b2 front garden facing the street, an old magnolia tree provides shade, whilst in the peaceful 153 m\u00b2 rear garden, roses bloom and there is plenty of space for vegetable patches or simply for walking barefoot. There is also an above-ground swimming pool there.<\/p>\n

Note<\/h3>\n

As the upper flat, which has its own garden area, is also currently on the market, the entire villa, including the garden, can be purchased if you are interested.<\/p>\n

Location<\/h3>\n

The flat is situated in a medieval village in northern Tuscany, nestled amongst the gently rolling hills of the Pisa countryside. It offers not only historic charm and an excellent location between Pisa, Livorno and Florence, but also a wide range of possibilities \u2013 whether as a private retreat, a holiday destination or an investment. The house is situated on a quiet street, just a two-minute walk from the historic village centre, ideal for anyone looking for a special place to live, work or create. All the amenities you need for daily life are in the immediate vicinity: a bakery, a butcher\u2019s, a bank branch, a post office, a chemist\u2019s, a library, an ice-cream parlour and a weekly market with fresh local produce. Small specialist shops selling electrical goods and gardening supplies, as well as a garage and a petrol station, are also within walking distance. Several good restaurants, caf\u00e9s and bars invite you to linger \u2013 with a panoramic view that is nothing short of inspiring.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

Village life<\/h3>\n

The Borgo is a vibrant showcase of Tuscan culture and way of life. Within its historic walls, over which an imposing castello has towered for around 1,000 years, an impressive blend of tradition, joie de vivre and artistic flair unfolds. The village itself is lively, charming and festive: a variety of events and village festivals, such as the widely renowned Cherry Festival, set the rhythm of the year and create an atmosphere in which you quickly feel at home.
\nAt the \u2018world\u2019s smallest pasta factory\u2019, pasta is still made by hand, and the bakery\u2019s fragrant delicacies are just as award-winning as the organic, locally sourced produce from the two butchers. But this village of 1,000 inhabitants thrives not only on flavour, but also on expression: a small but excellent theatre with a vibrant cultural scene, a professional recording studio of international standard, and the annual \u2018Collinarea\u2019 summer festival featuring music and the performing arts make the village a cultural hub with real character. There are some lovely walks to be had from the villa.<\/p>\n

Transport links<\/h3>\n

Despite its idyllic setting, the village has excellent transport links: the airport in the provincial capital, Pisa, is just 30 minutes away, whilst the regional capital, Florence, is just over an hour away. You can get around easily via the well-developed FiPiLi motorway, as well as by bus and train from Pontedera. Thanks to its wonderfully central location, this is a great base from which to explore and enjoy the whole of Tuscany: in just half an hour, you can be swimming in the sea, discovering cultural treasures such as Volterra, San Gimignano or Lucca, or visiting one of the countless attractions in Italy\u2019s most beautiful region.<\/p>\n
