Located just 5km north of Strada in Casentino with all amenities, we are pleased to offer this renovated stone built detached house with separate hay barn and bordering a stream suitable for swimming in the Localita Massi Grossi, about an hour east of Florence and the same north of Arezzo. The property provides spacious accommodation of 140m2 over 3 floors. The lower ground level has a small taverna, a cantina and boiler room as well as internal stairs leading to ground floor. The ground floor with the main entrance leads into a hallway, kitchen/living room with exposed beam ceilings and stairs leading to the first floor, ante-room, bathroom, and dressing room/storage room. The first floor contains 2 bedrooms, a usable loft area as third bedroom and a further loft area not livable. As well as the main house, there is a further haybarn over two floors which has recently had a new roof and loft, but needs to be renovated internally. The property, with outside terrace, pizza oven and ample room to dine, sits in about 2000m2 (0.49 acre) of land which leads to a stream in which you can swim and which in turn leads to the renowned mediaeval bridge of Massigrossi. A lovely property, within easy reach of all amenities at Strada in Casentino and Poppi, within an hour of either Arezzo or Florence and perfect for personal use in this lovely area of the Casentino.

Casa Travella was founded in 1987 when Linda & Pietro Travella saw an opportunity to offer Italian property for sale. At this time there were very few companies that offered any property for sale in Italy. Now years later read some of their story.

The company is fronted by Linda Travella and Casa Travella started selling property on Lake Como, where Pietro was born and Linda has worked and lived. The company were able to offer advice on numerous properties and ongoing help with all aspects of the buying process. If a client wants to restore a property, then Casa Travella can source tradesmen and professionals in the area and help with every aspect of the transaction.

When the BBC were looking for someone to speak on BBC Breakfast News about European property Linda was chosen to appear live on the programme. Other TV and radio programmes followed including Radio 5 Live, and ‘I want that House’ with Mark Simpkins, where Linda appeared in 6 episodes, the last one being a live programme from Florida, where an Italian apartment was given away as a prize. Linda appeared for RTE, Irish TV and for Channel 4‘s ‘A Place in the Sun’, where she accompanied Amanda Lamb along the shores of Lake Como by boat, to show her some of the stunning villas, including the one owned by George Clooney.

The Casa Travella team are always pleased to help when clients want to buy or sell a property in Italy. The office is multilingual with English, Italian and Spanish being spoken.

Linda says: ‘I feel proud that we can offer property for sale in many areas of Italy and we are able to give clients independent and professional advice on areas and types of property to suit their budget and needs.’

The Casa Travella team look forward to helping you buy or sell your Italian home.
