Features and description

Historic villa with frescoes, park and swimming pool in the hills of Lucca
In the prestigious hillside setting south of Lucca, in the Belvedere area, this 16th-century historic villa represents a rare opportunity in the prime property market. The estate extends over approximately 810 sq m in total and is surrounded by 7 hectares of private land, including arable fields, an olive grove and Mediterranean scrub. Set on the ridge of a hill, with panoramic views over the Lucca countryside, it offers complete privacy, a beautiful swimming pool, excellent condition thanks to a careful restoration, and significant residential development potential. This luxury villa for sale combines historic value, grandeur and prospects for further enhancement.
Villa, principal rooms and independent spaces
The main villa, approximately 470 sq m, spans four levels and retains the original charm of this historic residence. The basement contains a large stone cellar, ideal for storing and ageing wine. The ground floor features elegant reception rooms, including a decorated reception room, a sitting room, a bright double dining room with access to the portico, a kitchen, a study, a bedroom with en-suite bathroom, a consecrated chapel and a laundry room.
The piano nobile features a monumental reception room with rare trompe-l'œil frescoes depicting the hills of Lucca, a principal suite with private bathroom, and four further spacious bedrooms served by two bathrooms with windows. The attic floor comprises partially habitable attic rooms, ideal for future customisation.
Park, swimming pool and panoramic views
The property is set in a naturally beautiful and secluded setting. The fenced park features a 12 x 6 metre swimming pool with a stone sun terrace and areas for outdoor living. Its position on the ridge ensures particularly fine panoramic views and an atmosphere of complete tranquillity, while remaining just a few minutes from Lucca's historic centre.
Residential potential and lifestyle
In addition to the historic and architectural value of the main residence, the estate offers interesting development opportunities. A building of approximately 90 sq m requiring renovation can be extended to 180 sq m, while a second building of approximately 150 sq m may be used for residential purposes. The extensive landholding also offers further building potential, with the possibility of creating additional residential and ancillary space in accordance with current planning regulations. The property is completed by an outbuilding of approximately 25 sq m with an original antique wood-fired oven.
With its combination of historic value, fine frescoes, spacious interiors, private park, swimming pool and development potential, this distinguished residence is suitable as an exclusive private home, a family estate or an investment in the luxury rental market.
