The house on the street
The house has been recently converted from two tiny apartments whilst keeping some of the old features of the ancient building. Entered from the traffic free street,there is a bright open plan living/dining room/modern kitchen. A spiral staircase takes you to a sunny double bedroom, with the bathroom off the bedroom. There are good open views from the windows to the park below.
Barga is a medieval town situated on a slope surrounded by terraced fields and the great shapes of the Apuane mountains. The town is rich in history and was politically associated with Florence for more than five centuries. Evidence of this can be seen in the pallazos and piazzas of the narrow winding streets within the old city walls.
