17th-century Villa with a Spa and a private park

This charming historical villa is located in the hilly area northeast of Lucca, just a few kilometers from the village of Matraia. The property dates back to the 17th century and was originally built by the renowned Diodati family.

The villa, set in approximately 1 ha of land, is surrounded by a splendid park fenced off with stone walls and hosting majestic centuries-old trees. It enjoys approximately 2000 sq m of living space across three floors and is divided into two separate wings, each with its own staircase and lift, rejoined by a large central area.

The east wing, designed as a primary family residence, comprises three bedrooms, a principal bedroom with his and her bathrooms, a wardrobe room, two offices, a kitchen, a breakfast and dining room, a living room, a reading room, and a beautiful reception area.

The west wing, designed to accommodate guests, includes five suites, a staff flat, a laundry area, a kitchen, and a dining room.

Additionally, the villa has a technical kitchen, a wine cellar with a tasting room, a massage room, a heated indoor pool - including a waterfall, a whirlpool, a counter-current swimming, and an automatic cover - a sauna, a Jacuzzi, and a living room with a relaxation area and a fireplace. At the back of the Villa are the technical rooms for electrical and heating systems, and a laundry room. Outside are a lemon house and a garage/tool shed.

The property is currently under renovation. Consolidation and earthquake-proofing work has been carried out, including a new roof with a maintenance anchorage system and cork wood insulation, new gutters and drains, and an anti-radon barrier on the ground floor. Where possible, original features such as the terracotta floors and masonry vaults have been retained, alternatively, valuable materials such as marble, oak wood, and, for the service rooms, Ariostea porcelain stoneware have been used. The purchasers will be able to customise the finishes according to their own taste - to be added to the purchase price.
