The Property

Nestled in the picturesque Tuscan countryside, just minutes from the historic centre of Lucca, Fine & Country Milan is delighted to present an exceptional 17th-century estate, where the timeless charm of Italian aristocratic architecture meets the sophistication of contemporary luxury hospitality.

Set within approximately 16,400 sqm of private parkland, the estate comprises a magnificent historic villa, a charming traditional Tuscan hamlet with independent residences, two swimming pools, beautifully landscaped Italian gardens, ornamental fountains and centuries-old trees.

Already operating in the luxury hospitality and exclusive events sector, the estate represents a distinctive investment opportunity, while also offering the perfect setting for an exceptional private residence, a multi-generational family retreat or an exclusive Tuscan countryside escape.

A Remarkable Historical and Architectural Heritage

The estate’s origins are deeply intertwined with the history of the Bernardini family, one of Lucca’s most distinguished aristocratic families.

Villa Lenka Bernardini, built in 1664 as the summer residence of Count Cosimo Bernardini, retains the elegance and character of Tuscany’s great noble residences, featuring frescoed reception rooms, impressive ceilings, original architectural details and beautifully preserved period interiors.

Among the estate’s most distinctive historical features is an ancient fishpond dating back to the 13th century, now incorporated into a picturesque setting of landscaped gardens and ornamental water features.

With more than seven centuries of history, the estate offers an extraordinary combination of architectural heritage, authenticity and timeless elegance.
