Historic Estate in the Hills of Lucca
Historic Estate. In a hill top location in the verdant Lucca countryside, with a wonderful view of the Serchio river and the valley, this historic estate enjoys a central position between the cities of Lucca and Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, just over 20 km from the property. Services are located 6 km from the villa. Viareggio and the Versilia coast are 50 km away, as are the ski slopes of Abetone and Pisa international airport.
The property comprises a complex of buildings (a renovated, 7+ bedroom, 17th century manor house and 6 other buildings to restore) providing a total of 1,990 sqm of space. The estate includes 3 hectares of land with the option to purchase more.
Access is provided by a well maintained road of about 2 km that runs through woods of oaks, chestnuts and pines. At the top of the hill, the hamlet is approached via a characteristic avenue of cypress trees. A beautiful wrought-iron gate leads into a lovely, terraced walled garden that surrounds the 17th century main villa of approximately 600 sqm on 3 storeys which has been recently restored and is in good condition. The 6 other buildings are in need of complete renovation. The entire estate can be converted into an accommodation facility or bed and breakfast, with the potential for 15 independent units in addition to the main villa as well as a pool, as per the project designed by the current owners.
