Immersed in the rolling hills of the Lucchese countryside, in a dominant and exceptionally panoramic position, this prestigious 16th-century historic villa is one of the most captivating properties in Tuscany. The breathtaking open views extend across the surrounding landscape, offering scenes of rare beauty and a profound sense of harmony with nature. Despite its privacy and tranquility, the villa is located just a few minutes from the historic center of Lucca, making it an ideal setting for those who wish to enjoy peaceful rural living without sacrificing proximity to services and major connections.

The villa has undergone a careful and respectful conservation restoration, designed to preserve its historic soul and original elegance while seamlessly integrating modern comforts. For over twenty-five years, the property has been meticulously maintained, ensuring impeccable condition throughout. The interiors retain fine materials and high-quality finishes, the result of skilled craftsmanship that enhances the authenticity and timeless charm of the residence.

Arranged over two levels, the villa offers spacious and light-filled interiors, perfectly suited both for everyday living and for refined entertaining. On the ground floor, the entrance leads to an elegant main living room, complemented by a formal dining room ideal for hosting guests. This level also includes a charming study/library, a comfortable TV room, a fully equipped kitchen, a breakfast room, and a well-appointed bedroom with en-suite bathroom, ideal as a guest suite or staff accommodation.

The first floor is centered around an extraordinary 17th-century frescoed hall, the historic heart of the villa, creating an atmosphere of remarkable elegance and distinction. From here, one accesses five additional bedrooms, all generously proportioned and filled with natural light, along with three bathrooms finished with high-quality, handcrafted materials. Overall, the villa offers six bedrooms and four bathrooms, making it perfectly suited to accommodate multiple families or guests in an exclusive and comfortable environment.

Externally, the property is surrounded by a beautifully landscaped garden of approximately 6,000 square meters, thoughtfully designed to enhance the natural beauty of the setting. The estate extends over roughly seven hectares and includes an olive grove with around 700 productive trees, an area of approximately 10,000 square meters suitable for vineyard planting, as well as woodland, natural land, and areas with potential for a fruit orchard. The panoramic swimming pool blends seamlessly into the landscape and is complemented by gazebos and relaxation areas, ideal for enjoying the Tuscan climate and outdoor living.

Additional outdoor features include a separate building with a traditional wood-fired oven, perfect for convivial evenings, pizza nights, or open-air dining, as well as an impressive cypress-lined driveway that leads to the villa, creating a striking and elegant approach.

The estate also includes two or three additional buildings with a total surface area of approximately 600 square meters, already registered for residential use. These structures offer significant potential, whether as independent guest accommodations or as part of a luxury hospitality project, fully in keeping with the prestige of the main villa.

This historic estate represents a truly rare opportunity for those seeking a residence of exceptional character in the Tuscan countryside, combining privacy, elegance, and accessibility. Perfect as a prestigious private home, an exclusive retreat, a luxury hospitality property, or a venue for high-end events, the villa offers a unique blend of history, beauty, and refined living in one of Tuscany’s most desirable locations.
Immersa nelle dolci colline della campagna lucchese, in una posizione dominante e straordinariamente panoramica, questa prestigiosa villa storica del XVI secolo rappresenta una delle più affascinanti proprietà della Toscana. La vista aperta e mozzafiato abbraccia il paesaggio circostante, regalando scorci di rara bellezza e un senso di assoluta armonia con la natura. Pur godendo di grande privacy e tranquillità, la villa si trova a pochi minuti dal centro storico di Lucca, rendendo la posizione ideale per chi desidera vivere nella quiete senza rinunciare alla comodità dei servizi e delle principali vie di comunicazione.

La villa è stata oggetto di un attento e rispettoso intervento di restauro conservativo, volto a preservarne l’anima storica e l’eleganza originaria, integrando al contempo tutti i comfort moderni necessari a una vita contemporanea di alto livello. Da oltre venticinque anni la proprietà è sottoposta a una manutenzione costante e meticolosa, che ne ha garantito condizioni impeccabili sotto ogni aspetto. Gli ambienti interni conservano materiali e finiture di pregio, frutto di un sapiente lavoro artigianale che valorizza l’autenticità della dimora.

Distribuita su due livelli, la villa accoglie al piano terra ambienti ampi e luminosi, perfettamente organizzati per la vita quotidiana e per l’ospitalità. L’ingresso introduce a un elegante soggiorno principale, affiancato da una raffinata sala da pranzo formale ideale per ricevere ospiti. Completano il piano uno studio-biblioteca di grande charme, una sala TV, una cucina completamente attrezzata, una sala colazioni e una confortevole camera da letto con bagno privato, perfetta anche come suite per gli ospiti o per il personale.

Il primo piano è dominato da uno straordinario salone centrale affrescato risalente al XVII secolo, autentico cuore storico della residenza, che crea un’atmosfera di rara suggestione e grande rappresentanza. Da qui si accede alle altre cinque camere da letto, spaziose e luminose, e ai tre bagni, realizzati con materiali di alta qualità e finiture artigianali. Nel complesso, la villa offre sei camere da letto e quattro bagni, risultando ideale per accogliere più nuclei familiari o ospiti in un contesto di assoluto comfort ed esclusività.

All’esterno, la proprietà è circondata da un magnifico giardino paesaggistico di circa 6.000 metri quadrati, curato con grande attenzione e pensato per valorizzare la bellezza naturale del luogo. La tenuta si estende complessivamente per circa sette ettari e comprende un oliveto con circa 700 piante in produzione, un’area di circa 10.000 metri quadrati particolarmente adatta alla realizzazione di un vigneto, oltre a bosco, terreno naturale e spazi con potenziale destinazione a frutteto. La piscina panoramica, perfettamente inserita nel contesto, è affiancata da gazebo e zone relax ideali per godere appieno delle giornate all’aperto e del clima mite toscano.

Completano gli spazi esterni un edificio separato dotato di forno a legna, perfetto per organizzare serate conviviali, cene all’aperto o eventi informali, e un imponente viale di cipressi che accompagna l’arrivo alla villa, conferendo alla proprietà un ingresso scenografico di grande impatto.

La tenuta comprende inoltre due o tre edifici annessi per una superficie complessiva di circa 600 metri quadrati, già accatastati per uso residenziale. Questi spazi offrono molteplici possibilità di utilizzo, sia come ulteriori unità abitative indipendenti sia come base per sviluppare un progetto di ospitalità di alto livello, in linea con il prestigio della proprietà principale.

Questa villa rappresenta un’opportunità estremamente rara per chi è alla ricerca di una dimora storica di grande carattere, immersa nella natura ma facilmente accessibile. Perfetta come residenza privata di rappresentanza, rifugio esclusivo nel verde, struttura ricettiva di lusso o location per eventi e ricevimenti di alto profilo, la proprietà coniuga in modo impeccabile storia, eleganza, privacy e qualità della vita, nel cuore di una delle zone più ambite della Toscana.
