This property was built on the ruins of one of the old farmhouses dating back to 1600 belonging to the villa nearby owned by a noble family. It is located on top of the hill in the South side of Lucca countryside, only 7 km from the historic city center. It has been totally restored a few years ago using traditional materials such as beamed ceilings, terracotta tiled floors and maintaining an original pizza oven and barbecue outside the main entrance, thus keeping all the character of a typical Tuscan farmhouse. The result is a very comfortable country home furnished with all modern comforts, such as wi-fi, mosquito nets and air-conditioning in all bedrooms except a single one. A particular feature is the totally fenced pool area, protected by a gate that can be closed for kids safety with a comfortable gazebo with sofa and chairs. The pool is equipped with upstream swim. The last few miles of the road leading to the property are quite curvy and pass through beautiful high antique stonewalls. Being the road quite narrow on some points, we recommend to those not familiar with this kind of country roads not to hire large vans

This fascinating farmhouse has been restored in a very appealing country style by its owner, who added a very personal touch in the renovation. Along with the beamed ceilings and cotto floors, typical of the Tuscan tradition, warm colours were chosen for the interiors, making it charming and comfortable. Montevigna’s unique style has been portrayed in several interior design magazines. The stone-built property is located above the village of Marlia, famous for the historical villas of Lucca and their magnificent parks. This makes the views from the garden and swimming pool spectacular, since scattered in the surrounding countryside, with its olive groves, it is possible to see Villa Grabau and Villa Reale, where Elisa Bonaparte Baciocchi, Napoleon’s sister and Princess of Lucca, resided.
