Located in the countryside just outside of Lucca, guests staying at this Tuscan villa are treated to views of the old town, rolling fields and the Mediterranean Sea in the distance. As you can imagine, it's a truly idyllic location and what's perhaps most impressive is that the home is just as easy on the eye, too. The main portion of the home sits within a villa that dates back to the 15th century and you get a sense of this history with the high ceilings, large fireplaces and wooden beams. There's also a real sense of grandeur when it comes to the interior design — you only have to look at the chandeliers, artworks and lavish dining areas to see what we mean. This opulence can be witnessed in the pool house and suite house, as well. Stepping outside, there are plenty of terraces, verandahs and lounges out on the lawns populated by olive trees and flowers where you can sit and admire the scenery. That being said, the views are equally as dreamy from the home's swimming pool, too. When you can prise yourself away from this tranquil address, you can hop in the car and be wandering the historic streets... of Lucca in a little over ten minutes, while the Italian coastline takes around thirty-five minutes to reach.
