Casa Metato is a charming stone cottage that was refurbished a few years ago, using traditional methods and local natural materials. Inside, beamed ceilings and an fireplace create a warm, rustic atmosphere with modern comfort.
The house is set in an elevated position 1.5 km from the historic medieval village of Castiglione di Garfagnana, offering spectacular views of the Garfagnana valley and the iconic "Uomo Morto" mountain.
Accessed via a narrow country lane, the property features a private gated entrance, around 1,500 square meters of beautifully maintained garden, and a range of outdoor amenities including a BBQ, firepit, pizza oven, hammock, a jacuzzi and a private pool (6.5 x 3.5 m) surrounded by terracotta paving.
Inside, the ground floor includes a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and utility room. Upstairs, there is a double bedroom and a second bedroom with bunk beds. Spacious porches on both sides of the house provide perfect spots for relaxing and enjoying the scenery.
Just 2 km from Castiglione, with its restaurants, bars, and historic charm, Casa Metato offers a peaceful yet convenient location. This idyllic retreat is perfect for couples or small families seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and easy access to local attractions.
