Potted plants and cypres still shade VILLA CLARA from view at this former 18th Century Small Mansion gone glam in the Tuscan countryside. Lush gardens frame a sparkling pool at this restored farmhouse near Lucca, in a village known for its Camellias festival and bespoke Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Beamed ceilings, brick floors, and archways retain the original ambiance, and a dining loggia shows off the views through a parish at the top oft he hill. Cut into local produce in the bright kitchen, relax and play chess in the stone-built pool house -once a horse stable- opening onto the patio by your private swimming pool. Horseback riding, tennis, and golf are all within range.
Grey-toned fabrics, and crystal chandeliers that fill this open-concept home frames big windows revealing rolling hills around the villa say country estate, but the city center of Lucca is only 12 kilometers away.
Listen to the bird's chirping as you stretch out on a lounger by the saltwater pool, play on the lawn, or steal away to the shade of the covered outdoor living area. Savor the complimentary fresh fruit and bottle of wine around the alfresco dining table for 10 before heating up the barbecue for dinner with sunset views.
Stone walls and a tiled roof still give the impression of a period villa, but inside, the home shows off its style in color, texture, and artwork.
