The thoughtful restoration of two farmhouses brought this beautiful villa to life. Encircled by forests, olive groves, flowerbeds, and manicured hedges, it’s the picture of a Tuscan countryside home. From the bedrooms to the poolside loungers, the lush, green views will follow. Stepping inside, you’ll find a charming interior that’s perfectly set up for family getaways. It’s welcoming and homely, with distinctly Tuscan touches that set the tone for a special stay. But we imagine you’ll be spending most of your time in the garden. Let the blissful hours roll by while you sip coffee beneath the fairytale-like pergola, take long swims in the pool, get lost in a good book, and explore the gorgeous gardens. By night, the green and blue landscape comes alight with gold, the warm-toned solar lights casting a regal glow across the home. Prepare zingy salads in the farmhouse-style kitchen and get the barbecue going for a grilled feast, before tucking in alfresco beneath the sloping canopy. When it’s time to explore, the historic town of Lucca is just 5 miles away. Walk along the famous walls, take a bike ride through its hills, explore the many piazzas, and pop into elegant galleries.
