What it really costs
Can you move in?
Livable, but something basic is worn out
In the listingHabitableSee what needs doing and what each job costs
Habitable farmhouse at €1112/m2, roughly 2x the regional baseline of €517/m2, but the baseline reflects raw/rural stock while this is move-in ready with heating, two baths, fireplace and panoramic Apuan Alps views. Ready to inhabit means near-zero renovation cost. Fresh listing (0 days). Downsides: pedestrian-only access (car-free village, foot access only), remote mountain hamlet at 750m, and energy class G. Missing building year. Solid, honest listing at a fair-to-good price for a turnkey mountain property with a strong view and small plot.
More on the house and the area
Stone farmhouse in the historic hamlet of Trassilico (750m elevation) at the edge of the village near the medieval Rocca Estense. Standout feature is the spectacular 360° panorama over the Apuan Alps (Monte Forato, Monte Pania), clearly visible from window shots. Cozy habitable interior with fireplace, but decor and bathrooms are dated. Comes with ~50sqm garden plot and outdoor dining area. Exterior is a plain rendered stone building — pleasant but not striking. The dramatic mountain setting and view drive most of the wow; access is foot-only and energy class is G.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- Pedestrian access only — reachable on foot
- Energy class G (poor efficiency)
- Dated interiors and bathrooms
- Remote mountain hamlet, 10km from nearest services

The area around

The Serchio valley is the main valley system of this part of inland Lucca. The area falls within the Alpi Apuane Regional Park.

Barga, within this part of the valley, is known for its historic hill town and is listed among I Borghi più belli d’Italia. This area is known for mountain walking, caves and karst landscapes, and for villages set in the Garfagnana and upper Serchio valleys between the Apuan and Apennine massifs.
