longer existing.
It is set on a slope of the hills, with a beautiful view on the
plain of Lucca.

It is surrounded by a large terraced property with beautiful olive
groves.
The house has been restored with great taste and great care for
the minimum details, both inside and outside, always using old
stones, terracotta tiles and wood beams.
The owner is a young antique dealer who found most of the restoring
decorative elements among real antiques, like the kitchen old carved
marble sink. Unusual and valuable antique furniture and objects
are spread everywhere.
Some antiques have been adapted to new
decorating uses as the beautiful mirror gilded frame turned into
a very original bed head. In any corner this lovely house retains
all the traditional charming atmosphere of a tuscan home.
