Elegant villa for sale in Lucca with swimming pool and panoramic views of the city and surrounding hills.
The access to this prestigious property for sale in Tuscany is on a well-maintained private road with a closed end and is via a pedestrian gate and a driveway, from which, through an alley that crosses the well-kept garden, we are led to the area used as a car park and to the main entrance of this fascinating dwelling.
This luxury villa, for sale in Lucca, is immersed in a property plot of approximately 5000 sq. m, planted with tall trees and luxuriant flower beds, as well as approximately 50 olive trees.
The property was built during the early 1970s and, subsequently, in 1992 underwent a total renovation that maintained the architectural peculiarities of the period; in 2006 a large swimming pool measuring 12 x 5.5 metres was built.
The house is developed on three main levels, on the ground, first and basement floors, for a total of approximately 590 square metres.
The entrance on the ground floor, with large windows overlooking the hills of Lucca, disengages the various areas of the living space and houses the elegant wood-panelled staircase, that connects the ground floor with the first floor. On the ground floor are the large and bright living room with fireplace, which opens onto a pleasant portico, the spacious and luminous dining room, with access to the large panoramic terrace and adjacent to the large kitchen, which also has independent access from outside. The kitchen, in Tuscan style, is connected to the pantry and a second spiral staircase leading to the basement.
On the first floor there is the sleeping area, entirely paved in parquet, composed on one side, of the large master bedroom equipped with a pleasant spacious terrace, a walk-in closet and a bathroom with a hydromassage tub.
On the other side of the villa, reachable via a corridor, we find three further spacious double bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom, as well as a shared bathroom for the others. On the basement level, internally connected to the kitchen area on the ground floor by a spiral staircase and with independent access from the outside, we find a large multipurpose room currently used as a further large living area with a functional kitchen and with direct access to the garden via two large French windows.
Also on this floor there is a large study with bathroom with shower, which could be used as a guest or staff room if required, a convenient laundry room, a technical room and a functional cellar.
From the well-kept outdoor spaces, there is a wonderful open view of the surrounding hills and the city of Lucca, distinguishing the Guinigi Tower and the bell towers of the most important churches of this important historical Tuscan city.
The large and well-kept garden of approximately 5000 square metres, all fenced in, and with an olive grove, also hosts the in-ground swimming pool, surrounded by the solarium area that enjoys a great deal of privacy thanks to the green backdrop created by the surrounding plants.
