It’s been a rainy day here today (actually that’s an understatement – it’s raining like it only can in October in Italy and the road outside my house is a 15cm deep torrent) but this did at least allow me to finally add the last properties that I saw at the end of August.
That would normally mean the the website was up-to-date if I hadn’t agreed to go out yesterday and see some more so…
Five new properties on the site today (www.toscanaverde.co.uk) priced from 75,000 to 500,000 euro. I’d personally love the last of these http://www.toscanaverde.co.uk/properties/VillaFrutta.html but I can’t afford it either.
Four at least (I’ve been promised some more if it ever stops raining) next week.
Il Glicine – a very nice house in central Bagni di Lucca has been on sale for some time. The owner has now reduced the price to a very reasonable 250,000 euro in the expectation of a quick sale.
If you are looking for a high quality house, centrally located, with plenty of bedrooms, a separate apartment, great road and public transport access and a lovely garden this is for you.

I never know what to do with these! It’s a small flat piece of Tuscan Hillside – a few miles from Bagni di Lucca and juast outside a village so nice that we live there. There is permission to build. I’ve not seen the plan but would guess it’s about half an acre in size and contains four large chestnut trees (which would get in the way of building unless you plan to recreate Lothlórien)
Should you fancy this as a project your options would either be to sell the wood and build – or if you feel sorry for the trees – work you way around them.

The property is nothing special – however the price is. Chiesa is a small terraced village house in need of some internal modernization. As far as we can see the structure is pretty good and the works required inside are well within the capabilities of someone skilled at DIY - or could be fixed professional at a reasonable cost. In fact, if you are not too fussy, you could just move it.
Basically it need a good scrub and a coat of paint and, if you are planning at connecting modern appliances, you might want to get the electrics looked at.
The main problem is that the main bedroom is at the top floor and the bathroom and WC are in the basement. As the stairs from the ground floor to basement are a bit tortuous I’d personally not prefer to have to do this at 3am which leaves you with either the traditional method of using a chamberpot, or installing a more modern bathroom at the top of the house. Frankly I’d go for the latter as there is plenty of room for this.
Incredibly, at this price, there’s a garden although this is a few metres walk from the property. Details at http://www.toscanaverde.co.uk/properties/Chiesa.html
Life! – too busy to blog. Too busy to update the website.
Just a quick post to say that Casa Portico – which is a sweet little house in Convalle – has had its price reduced to 135,000 euro.
We were out in Tuscany over Easter and have at least twenty new properties to add to the site. I hope to get at least some of these listed in the next week.
Two new properties for Valentines Day.
Il Giardino – a comfortable and spacious village house in the Lower Garfgnana with road access to the door, a lovely garden and views over the Alpi Apuane.
Casa Colle – a small detached house with terrace, garden and views. In a thriving village with a bar and restaurant a minute from the door.
