Historical Apartment with 2 Baths and View

Historical apartment with 2 baths and 2 bedrooms for sale in Prata (GR).
The property is located in the heart of the historic town center, at the top of the village. It is on the first and top floor, bright and airy, with only its own attic floors remaining over it.

The building is one of the first constructed within the Prata Castle. Its origins date back to around 900-1000 AD and it is located just steps from the palace of the “Lord of Prata,” where the famous Pia of Dante is said to have lived (for more information, read the article “Did Pia di Dante Really Live in Prata?”).
In addition to being one of the oldest residences in the village, it had the honor of hosting the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Leopold II, in 1833. A marble plaque at the entrance commemorates this event (see the photo in the gallery).

The property therefore has the classic structure of old Tuscan houses, with very thick stone walls and ceilings with wooden beams and exposed terracotta tiles.

The roof was recently redone and replaced. The systems and fixtures were also completely redone in 2018.
