The space

In this very special house, you will have the experience of living in an ancient tower, transformed into a cozy villa, immersed in the green hills of Lunigiana and very close to the beautiful sea of the Golfo dei Poeti ( Gulf of La Spezia), we are in fact 5 kilometers from Lerici. The house has a beautiful garden with century-old trees and a terraced part with a belvedere overlooking the valley of the Magra river with the village of Sarzana and the gentle hills, in the background you will be surprised by the enchanting panorama of the Apuan Alps. Olive trees, a walk under vine trees and a pine forest make the garden a green, relaxing, private and peaceful oasis where you can spend joyful hours. There is also a beautiful swimming pool surrounded by a pine forest of centuries-old pines, where you can cool off and sunbathe. For wood-burning oven lovers, there is one in the lower part of the garden, so why not try to make some pizza and enjoy it in front of a beautiful view?!

The house is inside an ancient tower, Torre degli Scipioni, clad in stone, it has three floors and two “wings.” On the stone facade we are greeted by an ancient wooden doorway that opens under an archway and a flight of steps leading to a small patio, this patio is the external access to the second floor of the house. On the ground floor there is a large gracious living room with a fireplace, a spacious well-equipped kitchen with dining area and a bathroom. From the kitchen there is access to a large covered terrace where you can eat with a wonderful view of the Magra River valley, the Lunensi hills and the Apuan Alps.

The house has been furnished with taste and care by the owners who are very fond of this family home, where they always gladly return to spend their vacations. The villa has four double bedrooms and four bathrooms; to access the bedrooms and three of the four bathrooms (one is on the ground floor) there are flights of stairs with several steps, the flight of stairs in the left wing of the house is spiral. In the left “wing” of the house you go up a spiral staircase and reach a large double bedroom with a large bathroom, then an entrance hall that gives onto the small patio on the second floor of the house. This covered patio, where one can drink coffee and read a book, is also accessed by the characteristic stone staircase on the facade.
