Vivre Dans Un Appartement Historique, C'est Vivre L'histoire : Des Murs Qui Recèlent Des Secrets Et Résonnent Avec Le Passé.

This elegant historic villa, of notable architectural value and embellished with large rooms rich in natural light, overlooks the avenues of the Lucca ring road.
The property enjoys a privileged position, directly opposite the imposing Sixteenth-century walls and the characteristic tree-lined avenues built during the time of Duchess Maria Luisa of Bourbon, between the late Eighteenth and early Nineteenth centuries.

This elegant villa, of significant historical and artistic interest, represents a rare example of early Twentieth-century Liberty architecture. Inside, two apartments are for sale, located on the first and second and top floors.

Access to the apartments is from the main entrance on the North side, via an elegant central marble staircase with a refined wrought-iron railing, or via a modern glass elevator that guarantees full accessibility even for people with disabilities.

The rooms have retained their original charm over time, with precious period details: Lucca-style single-glazed windows, doors with stained-glass inserts, original Tessieri floors – an early-production of last century.

First floor apartment – about 185 sqm
The entrance opens onto a transverse corridor that harmoniously distributes the rooms.
Proceeding counterclockwise you will find a single room, an elegant living room with walls covered in red silk brocade and a study–bookshelf with a removable staircase and wood-burning fireplace. Both rooms overlook on a balcony.
The sleeping area includes two bathrooms (one with a bathtub and one with a shower), two large double bedrooms and a windowed storage room.
There’s also a bright living room with a white marble fireplace; the French window leads to a terrace of around 20 sqm whose external walls are decorated with ceramic works from the last century.
In the South corner of the terrace a spiral staircase it’s an external access to the garden.
The kitchen, located near the entrance, completes the floor.
The garden also features about 60 sqm of technical rooms serving the apartment with cellars.

Second and top floor apartment – approx. 185 sqm
This apartment of approximately 185 sqm, located on the second and top floor, develops around a corridor, to the right of which we find a room used as a closet cabin, a living room defined by a wood paneling, a double bedroom with floors in Tessieri, a dining room with an open kitchen framed by an elegant arch, two large rooms, a half bathroom and a windowed bathroom complete with a bathtub and shower.
Panoramic tower
From the second floor, a spiral staircase leads to the evocative square tower located on the Eastern corner of the villa, which offers stunning sceneries of the city of Lucca and its walls.
The tower is shared by the three apartments present in the villa.
The villa is embellished with decorative frescoes that enhance its unmistakable Art Nouveau style.
The property is completed by a magnificent garden of approximately 700 sqm, located on the South side of the house.
In 2002, major restoration work was carried out on the facades and roof, with conservative recovery of the original decorations.
