About this property
Beautiful village house, pool. Walk to restaurant. WIFI. Flexible changeover.
Giammengo is a beautifully restored romantic stone property, with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms in the cottage, with a further 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom set across the little courtyard 10M from the house. There is a gorgeous pool and outdoor relaxing area.
Set in the depths of the Garfagnana, an hour or so North of Lucca, in a small village with a population of circa 300. There are village and mountain views. This house really is a treat!
Unusually for this area, one can walk to a pizzeria/restaurant (less than a 5 min walk) where one can dine al fresco on the terrace and take in the view, as well as a basic shop/bar, gelateria and butchers. For other facilities the local market town is less than a 10 minute drive away.
This 2 bedroom, 2 shower room village property, along with further bedroom and bathroom across the courtyard has been restored with lots of love and care, and retains its original character, but with the addition of modern shower rooms, beautiful furniture and stunning pool area complete with an outdoor kitchen, and no less than a choice of 3 eating areas, making it an ideal holiday home.
The cottage is tastefully presented, with a wonderful mixture of original flooring, beamed ceilings, chestnut windows, original balconies from bedrooms, blending perfectly with modern fireplace, pristine bathrooms, country kitchen and bang up to date outdoor area with good size modern pool.
This place really is a treat!
In more detail the property is arranged as follows:
Kitchen/diner with oven, hob, microwave, fridge, coffee machine. Double doors leading to outdoor area.
Living area with comfy seating, wood fireplace, TV, WIFI.....
There are beamed ceilings and traditional flooring.
Also on this floor is a shower room.
Upstairs to :
2 double bedrooms - each with their own balcony featuring village views with mountain backdrop.
Shower room
Across courtyard to :
Twin bedroom with en-suite shower room. Please note when putting the twin beds together there will be a gap between the 2 beds.
All bedrooms have insect screens to take advantage of the beautifully cool mountain air at night. They also have ceiling fans.
Outside:
Beautiful pool with Roman steps
Sunbathing area with quality sunbeds
Modern seating area
Covered dining area
Uncovered dining area
Outdoor kitchen with large gas BBQ, sink and fridge
Gated property with private parking via electronic gates
Garage with washing machine and freezer.
NB - Owner sometimes lives in the house next door, and whilst respecting the privacy of guests, they are happy to assist with any difficulties and with suggestions. They speak English, German, all three Scandinavian languages, Spanish and Italian.
Please note that automated distance information can be misleading in rural areas. Although some places may appear close “as the crow flies,” walking routes are often impractical.
