Complexe De Villas Bagni DI Lucca

A winding road through the woodland leads to an ancient stone hamlet, nestled in the natural landscape of the Tuscan hills. A secluded setting where the surrounding countryside and traditional rural architecture tell a story of restoration and renewal.

Occupying a south-facing hillside position, the property combines the charm of a settlement dating back to medieval times with an established project centred on hospitality, agriculture and environmental sustainability. The nearby river and surrounding woodland contribute to the distinctive character of this peaceful rural setting.

An extensive restoration programme, begun in the early 2000s, has brought much of the hamlet back to life while respecting its original character. Stone, timber, terracotta and natural materials preserve its authentic atmosphere, while the buildings have been adapted to accommodate guests and activities connected with rural life.

Accommodation and Communal Spaces

The property includes an established agriturismo offering seven self-contained apartments and three en-suite guest rooms, with accommodation of varying sizes and layouts, ranging from studios to apartments with separate living and sleeping areas, including some arranged over two levels. Several feature panoramic terraces, and every apartment benefits from its own private outdoor space.
The hospitality facilities include a restaurant with a kitchen and wood-fired oven, an indoor dining area of approximately 32 sq m, and an outdoor dining area of approximately 75 sq m, complete with a large barbecue. Additional communal facilities include a space for educational activities and workshops, a reception area and a shop for local produce.
The swimming pool, carved into the rock to follow the natural contours of the landscape, blends into its surroundings and features a saltwater treatment system. Adjacent facilities include changing rooms, bathrooms and a sauna.
One of the hamlet’s most distinctive features is its atmospheric open-air square with tiered, amphitheatre-style seating, used for events, performances and cultural activities. This welcoming communal space reflects the character of a small village designed to be experienced and shared.
Land, Natural Surroundings and Additional Buildings
The estate includes approximately 23 hectares of land, spread across several plots around the hamlet, along the river and over the surrounding hillsides. The combination of agricultural land and woodland is an integral part of the property’s identity and its approach to rural hospitality.
The property also includes a separate residence of approximately 102 sq m, together with a woodshed, situated in a secluded position beside the river, where restoration works remain to be completed. Further buildings include a three-storey property requiring renovation, additional rural buildings in a state of disrepair and various service areas.
Two further units, with a combined area of approximately 88 sq m, are currently used for operational and service purposes, alongside cellars and technical rooms.
The buildings awaiting restoration offer further opportunities to enhance the estate, subject to the necessary technical assessments, planning permissions and regulatory approvals.
A Project Rooted in the Land

The restoration of the historic buildings has been accompanied by a practical commitment to the responsible use of natural resources. Photovoltaic panels, solar thermal systems, wood-biomass heating and a constructed wetland wastewater treatment system complement the estate’s agricultural activities, cultivation, livestock farming and honey production.

The result is a distinctive property where historic buildings, landscape and everyday activities form part of a project developed over many years, maintaining a close connection with the countryside and local traditions.
