The exclusive historic villa, for sale in Lucca, preserves within its confines a quiet and authentic world of great charm and privacy just 4 km from the historic centre of Lucca.
The prestigious property, for sale in Tuscany, located on a hill with excellent exposure, consists of the 17th-century manor house, a farmhouse divided into two apartments and various storerooms, all immersed in a land of approximately 4 hectares, within which it is possible to build a large swimming pool.
The land, with ample flat areas, is partly cultivated with olive groves in production, consisting of approximately 200 olive trees, and partly woodland.
The ancient aristocratic villa, dating back to 1600, within its own boundary wall, echoes the theatrical vocation of the Lucca's villas of the period and maintains its authenticity in its finishes and atmosphere; it is characterised by its symmetrical spaces and compact volume with a large double-ramp entrance staircase.
The historic villa, for sale in Lucca, is on three main floors for a total area of 900 s. qm, and it was renovated in the mid-1990s. During the renovation, a convenient lift was added to connect the various levels of the villa and various frescoes were meticulously restored and well maintained.
At present, the villa, which is a single unit, is divided into three independent residential units on the three levels of the building. The subdivision, realised by closing some doors with plasterboard, is however easily restored to its original conformation with the characteristics of an elegant single villa.

On this livel we find a study, din room, kitchen and a first large bedroom with en-suite bathroom, as well as two double bedrooms from which it is pleasant to admire the surround landscape framed by the large windows, and two bathrooms.
The second floor houses a flat moved by three steps composed of kitchen, liv room, two large bedrooms, two bathrooms, as well as the ancient private chapel that is still consecrated.
Adjacent to the villa, but also reachable by independent access from a private road, is an ancient and characteristic build of approximately 750, totally to be restored.
