House of the Sunflower
 Ref. A0321 - We want to present you this lovely residence, nestled between stone houses, archivolts and suggestive views within a typical village on the hills between Camaiore and Pescaglia. The place seems like a corner of paradise where time seems to have stopped, where the old stone walls tell stories and traditions of times gone by. The small village can be reached either from Lucca along the Serchio valley or from Camaiore along a provincial road that leads us inland, passing Valfreddana. After leaving the car in the public car park, walk along a charming paved street which after a few minutes leads us to the Casa del Girasole
 The house, built in stone, is arranged on three levels, with a small paved courtyard, where even the wrought iron fence fits into the typical context, and where a small table makes you want an outdoor coffee.
 Upon entering, a characteristic "above the door" welcomes us, at the entrance we find a welcoming living room with fireplace and window facing south-east, a small but functional kitchen always lit by the sun still on the ground floor we find a bathroom with shower and dressing room.
 With a medium-sized spiral staircase, you enter the first floor, where there is a bedroom and a storage room that can be used according to your needs, with windows facing south-east on the second and last floor a spacious attic, equipped with two windows and a skylight, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the valley and the small villages nearby. Overall, the house has a useful surface area of approximately 60 m2. And an external courtyard of approximately 15 m2.
 The house was completely renovated in 2007 and is connected to public electricity, aqueduct and sewerage utilities. The heating system with radiators is powered by Lpg cylinders, as are the kitchen burners and domestic water. Every detail was taken care of in the renovation and ordinary maintenance, the windows are in lacquered wood with double glazing the wooden floors and stone details convey the warmth of the typical local materials, bringing the mind back to the habits of the past at the same time, the attention to every detail and the excellent state of maintenance give freshness and comfort to the home.
 The village is located at an altitude of approximately 350 meters above sea level and is approximately three km from commercial and public services such as schools and post offices, approximately 26 km from Lucca, 27 km from Camaiore and 43 km from Pisa.
 In our opinion…
 This house is suitable for a couple, willing to travel a distance between 7 and 26 km for work. The town is served by public transport.
 The house is also very well suited for those who want to live it as a second home, in fact the area offers various leisure opportunities. It is located within the Apuan Alps Park and some marked routes depart from the village, used by hikers and cyclists. A short distance away are the suggestive medieval villages of Garfagnana, and if you want to vary between the mountains and the sea, the latter can be reached with a distance of approximately 32 km.
