typical historical house for sale in Sasso di Castalda

"Giovanna's House"
In the heart of the ancient village of Sasso di Castalda, at an altitude of nearly 950 meters above sea level, stands a residence both rooted in history and striving for originality: Casa Giovanna.
Here, every detail speaks to the seasons of a tranquil yet intense life, amidst expansive views, warm lights, and the scents of wood and stone. The small town (fewer than a thousand inhabitants) nestled in the Appennino Lucano Val d'Agri Lagonegrese National Park has preserved its traditions, its typical architecture, its stairways, its stone houses, and the ancient streets that climb toward the dominating rock.
This typical property, approximately 120 square meters spread over three levels – ground floor, first floor, and basement – is a true architectural gem.
The ground floor features the living area, with a warm and welcoming kitchen and a living room that opens onto a large terrace offering breathtaking views of the surrounding valleys. The first floor contains two bright bedrooms, both of which enjoy the peaceful village setting and the beauty of the sunsets. The basement level houses a useful space for everyday use, with a second bathroom, additional rooms, and the possibility of using it as a basement or study.
The two bathrooms have been tastefully designed, combining practicality and style.
The exposed wooden beam ceilings harmoniously interact with the traditional terracotta floors, giving the interiors a warm, rustic yet refined feel.
The house is being sold fully furnished, with furniture that retains a strong historical and local character, reinterpreted with an innovative design: restored antique pieces, natural fabrics, and handcrafted details make each room unique, never "off-the-shelf."
All you need to do is come in and feel at home, immersed in an authentic and elegant atmosphere.
The terrace, a true space to breathe, allows you to enjoy outdoor living, breakfast, relaxation, and dinner under the stars, overlooking the woods and mountains surrounding Sasso.
The location is strategic: despite being immersed in nature and the tranquility typical of a mountain village, the property is well connected.
Sasso di Castalda is crossed by state and provincial roads (including the SS 598 della Valle d'Agri) that connect the town with Potenza and other centers of Basilicata.
The nearest motorway exits are not far away (A2 exits / road junctions) for those coming from outside the region or from nearby regions.
Furthermore, life in the village is enriched by local attractions of great value: the Ponte alla Luna (Tibetan) which offers spectacular views, the Frassati Trail, the via ferratas, the wooded areas of the Costara, the deer wildlife area, the charm of the alleys and ancient churches.
This house is not just a dwelling, but an experience: the sound of footsteps on the terracotta tiles, the smell of wood, the lights filtering through the beams, the silence that rewards those who know how to listen.
It is perfect for those seeking a retreat, a second home surrounded by nature, or a small real estate investment with strong tourism potential.
Casa Giovanna is a true jewel of Sasso di Castalda: typical, authentic, comfortable, with a view and atmosphere.
