Clelia
Apartment located 200 meters from the sea, Marina di Massa
Modern and well-maintained, the “Apartment Clelia” welcomes you to its cool and verdant garden after a renovation in the winter of 2024. Situated in a beautiful residential condominium comprising villas and exclusive apartments with reserved access and parking. Located on a street parallel to the seaside avenue in Marina di Massa, just 200 meters from the sea and beach, close to all services. The apartment features two bedrooms, a splendid bathroom with a shower, an open-plan kitchen, and a dining area. A covered patio is ideal for relaxing over aperitifs.
Nestled in the province of Massa Carrara, the area is famed for traditional food and the white Carrara marble that Michelangelo used to sculpt his masterpieces.
INTERIORS
Apartment Clelia is a comfortable and well-maintained ground-floor three-room apartment with spacious rooms that can comfortably accommodate up to five people. It features a double bedroom with a French door overlooking the garden and a fragrant lemon tree; the other bedroom has two single beds, which can be reduced to one if fewer guests are staying. The living area is spacious and well-organized, boasting a beautiful modern kitchen with a handy pantry space. There is also a large sofa that converts into a sofa bed, though it is recommended for up to four adults or two adults with three children due to having only one bathroom. The bathroom is beautifully maintained with a comfortable shower and a window that opens to the garden area.
The house lacks air conditioning but remains cool due to the lush garden, its orientation, and its ground-floor location; mosquito screens are fitted on all shutters. A heated massage pillow is also available for relaxing.
Perfect for families with two or three children or for young or elderly couples looking for a quiet and relaxing place to enjoy the beach or this beautiful area in northern Tuscany.
EXTERIORS
Entry to the property is through a private electric gate via the condominium driveway that leads to the parking area with reserved space for one car; from there, a small pathway between the gardens of other properties leads to a gate accessing Clelia’s exclusively used and fenced garden, ensuring perfect privacy. The garden wraps around two sides of the property, facing the house and extending to the right with a laundry corner, which includes a very convenient shower for use upon returning from the sea.
Directly in front of the main entrance is a large gazebo with a lovely sofa and outdoor chairs, perfect for a refreshing “spritz” after a long day at the beach.
The apartment is within a meticulously maintained and clean condominium, with ample parking spaces and communal bins for waste disposal.
Bicycle rental is available, and bikes can be securely stored in the garden.
The Marina di Massa area is highly sought after for its beautiful beaches and appeals to nature and culture enthusiasts.
The house is located 200 meters from the sea in a quiet neighborhood, comprised of holiday homes and residential apartments. The area is very quiet and peaceful, surrounded by important and very useful connections for moving around by car and bicycle. Nearby are many shops, bars, cafes, and restaurants. It’s possible to go hiking or cycling along the Frigido river and reach nearby Forte dei Marmi.
The strategic location is also close to Liguria, the Cinque Terre, and Versilia with its beautiful beaches and famous venues between Forte dei Marmi and Viareggio; it is also near the Apuan Alps Park for a relaxing day amidst these natural beauties.
The historic center of nearby Carrara is beautiful; visit the historic palaces, narrow streets between houses, beautiful squares, and especially the important Academy of Fine Arts, located in what was a medieval castle of the Malaspina – open daily.
Here, many restaurants and taverns will serve you excellent local dishes such as Panigacci with cheeses and cured meats from local sources and Testaroli with Genovese pesto. The renowned Lunigiana area is also very close, where a day trip to visit the museum of the fascinating Stele Statues of Pontremoli is recommended.
