This property offers the rare opportunity to retreat to an authentic paradise, away from the crowds yet only 40 minutes from an international airport (PSA), 12 minutes from the beautiful city of Lucca and just minutes from grocery stores and restaurants where you can enjoy the finest Tuscan cuisine.
Built in the late 19th century, the villa stands on the first hills northwest of Lucca, overlooking the Serchio River plain with an unparalleled view. The area, characterized by its alluvial nature, has remained protected and virtually unchanged over the centuries, offering a pristine landscape. The fenced park of approximately 3 hectares is surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, with a few houses scattered across the surrounding hills. The lay of the land and the layout of the gardens ensure absolute privacy and intimacy. Numerous paths crisscross the property, allowing for long walks without ever having to leave the gate. The 25-meter pool, set on a large green terrace and framed by bamboo and oak trees, is the ideal size for both swimming and relaxation.
The villa is spread over three floors: the ground floor contains the living room, study, kitchen, and dining rooms; the first floor contains three bedrooms with private bathrooms and a suite with two bedrooms and a bathroom; the second floor contains a bedroom with bathroom and a further suite with two bedrooms and a bathroom. Also on the second floor, a large room with a fireplace and large windows opens onto the landscape to the west, offering suggestive views of the vineyards and the small church that dominates the hill.
The kitchen and dining room overlook a vast lawn framed by lime trees and horse chestnuts. Beneath one of these majestic chestnut trees, just in front of the kitchen, lies a large paved space with tables and an outdoor living area: the ideal spot for aperitifs, lunches, and dinners immersed in the tranquility of the garden.
This prestigious villa with its 25m swimming pool is located in a completely private area, a few steps from the river park with jogging and cycling paths, 25 minutes from the beach, 1.5 hours from the hiking trails of the Apennines and Apuan Alps, and 45 minutes from Florence. The entire property is fenced. Chef service is available upon request, for a fee.
This villa is a true family residence, cared for by three generations. Its soul and history emerge in the extensive library spread throughout the house, comprising thousands of volumes in several languages.
Within the same private complex, just 80 meters away, there is a guesthouse with two other apartments, one with three bedrooms and two bathrooms and one with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Rates for those interested in renting the guesthouse for additional guests are available upon request. A private chef service is also available upon request, for a fee.
