Description
The roots of this historic estate lie in the period between the 17th and 18th centuries, influenced by the architectural innovations introduced in the Lucca area during the Late Baroque and the Enlightenment. The Italian garden, with an illuminated design, welcomes a new and fascinating swimming pool, offering an ideal refuge to cool off on hot summer days and completely immerse yourself in the beauty of the surrounding nature. With land planted with vineyards and olive groves, the property offers a combination of modern comforts and the charming atmosphere of times gone by.
The estate, which originally belonged to one of Tuscany's most noble families in the 18th century, consists of three main buildings . The 765 m2 villa, distributed over three levels, perfectly reflects the eighteenth-century architecture. The ground floor houses a large living room, billiard room, bedrooms and bathrooms, while the first floor offers a double living room, further bedrooms and bathrooms. The top level features a spacious habitable attic with a wood-burning oven, while the basement contains a 250 m2 cellar. The farmhouse, on two levels, features a bright living room, a spacious kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms. The private chapel next to the farmhouse is adorned with well-preserved frescoes.
A notable detail is the presence of a high hedge along the side that runs alongside the road, providing privacy from view and sound insulation for the villa. Behind the villa, a small vineyard of 1,800 m2 and 100 olive trees in production contribute to producing wine and extra virgin olive oil for private use. The southern part of the property is covered in 2.7 ha of woods, ideal for walks and relaxing moments in the shade. Finally, an unused field of 1.6 ha around the vineyard could be used for the cultivation of new vineyards or olive trees.
