- About The Experience
-
Dramatically situated on a hillside, this restored farmhouse boasts panoramic views over vineyards, olive groves, and chestnut woods from its patios and pool. The walled city of Lucca is a 15-minute drive down the hill, while beaches, Pisa, and Florence are all within day trip distance. Constructed in the early 1900s, the property was originally a local “bottega” or general store, reflected in unique features distinguishing the building from standard farmhouses, such as higher ceilings and larger windows. The spacious interiors are well–suited for a family or group of friends.
- Location Description
-
This farmhouse is located in the scenic hills that divide Lucca from the Versilian coast, and has offers easy access to both as well as great views. Nearby, the small village of San Martino in Freddana offers shops, a post office, a doctor’s office, and dining. A short drive away, the Renaissance-era stone walls of the picturesque city of Lucca is home to the 14th century Duomo di San Martino, a Roman amphitheater, and a wealth of late gothic architecture. The Versilian coast (the “Versilian Riviera”) offer miles of popular sandy beaches and resorts.
