The charm of wood in a villa just steps from Lucca

Some homes are meant to be looked at, while others are meant to be experienced. This villa belongs to the latter category. Once through the gate, greenery envelops the property, revealing an entirely wooden structure—warm, original and deeply welcoming—that conveys, from the very first moment, the feeling of having arrived somewhere special.

The outdoor spaces are an integral part of life in the home. Porches and paved areas surround the villa, creating little settings to enjoy at different times of day: morning coffee outdoors, lunch in the shade, or dinner lasting into the late evening. A dedicated wellness area also features an outdoor hot tub, immersed in the garden’s greenery and privacy, perfect for slowing down and enjoying a moment of relaxation.

Inside, wood becomes the common thread throughout the rooms, giving the interiors a charm rarely found in traditional homes. The living area is bright, convivial and naturally open to the outdoors: the kitchen, dining area and spaces devoted to everyday life flow into one another in a warm, welcoming atmosphere, designed for a home to be truly lived in and, above all, shared.

Upstairs is the villa’s more private area, devoted to rest and privacy. The welcoming, light-filled bedrooms retain the warm character that distinguishes the entire home, while the views and outdoor spaces maintain a pleasant connection with the greenery. Wood, also the dominant feature on this level, makes the rooms intimate and enveloping, creating the distinctive sense of comfort found throughout the property.

Alongside its residential character, the villa also has a natural vocation for hospitality. Part of the upper floor has already been used as an apartment for a bed and breakfast, creating a pleasant balance between private spaces and those intended for guests. It could be an unconventional family home, a place for welcoming friends and loved ones, or a residence capable of turning the pleasure of hospitality into a genuine project.

A home to enjoy in every season, surrounded by the warmth of wood, light and greenery, with the pleasant feeling of being slightly on holiday each time you return home.
