Charming Home for Sale Above the Medieval Town of Barga
Positioned just above the historic hilltop town of Barga, this property offers a unique opportunity to create your dream home in one of Tuscany’s most admired locations. Barga—recognised as one of I Borghi più belli d’Italia (“The Most Beautiful Villages of Italy”)—is a celebrated medieval town in the province of Lucca, home to around 10,000 residents and known as the cultural heart of the Media Valle of the Serchio River. With its stone archways, centuries-old architecture, lively piazzas, and renowned music and arts festivals, Barga remains a vibrant and sought-after destination.
The house enjoys an elevated position with enchanting views that stretch over Barga’s terracotta rooftops and across the surrounding valley. The property includes a private garden, offering a peaceful outdoor space perfect for al fresco dining, relaxing in the sunshine, or cultivating your own Tuscan retreat.
Inside, the home features a welcoming living room centred around a traditional fireplace, adding warmth and charm to the main living area. The kitchen offers a functional space ready to be reimagined, while the layout includes four bedrooms, providing ample room for family, guests, or the creation of a study, studio, or additional living areas.
The property does require renovation, giving the new owner the chance to restore and redesign the spaces to their own taste—whether maintaining the home’s traditional character or introducing more modern elements. With its solid structure, wonderful views, and generous layout, the house holds significant potential.
Homes in this location are increasingly rare. With breathtaking views, walking access to one of Tuscany’s most enchanting medieval centres, and ample room for transformation, this property presents an excellent opportunity for anyone seeking a renovation project in a truly remarkable setting.
