This outstanding villa, together with the adjacent farmhouse, has recently been restored to a very high standard by the current owners. Both houses date from the sixteenth century, retaining all their historic features as a true Tuscan idyll. Nonetheless, sufficient cosiness and comfort, combined with modern technology has been introduced to satisfy almost every twenty-first century requirement.
The property is set in a quiet location, high in the hills northwest of Lucca. A very well maintained garden surrounds the house and, on one side, a big centuries-old oak tree provides a shady area, perfect for al fresco meals. The views overlooking the surrounding countryside and the valley below are spectacular. The owners have kept two farmhouses on the same estate for their own use, about 80 meters from the villa. They will use them occasionally, but in no way do they encroach on their clients privacy. The property is situated in one of Italy's acclaimed olive oil producing regions. Naturally it has its own olive grove, producing fine organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil under its own label. During low season the house is available also for 8 people.
