Gallicano, Lucca, Tuscany, Italy

Buying a house in Tuscany

At Property in Lucca, we know all about trying to find the right property for sale in Tuscany – we’ve been there and done it ourselves. When we bought our Lucca home over 20 years ago, our purchase was straightforward and often enjoyable. The reality matched our dream. Today, we make it our business to make your property purchase experience one to remember, for all the right reasons.

We’ll deliver a level of service that you’d expect from a high-end British property consultant, but with a much more personal touch. Having spent an equal amount of time working and living in London and Lucca, we want to provide you with tried and tested, Italian born and bred local expertise, underpinned by a delight in delivering cosmopolitan service with an international mindset.

Looking at the Tuscany property market, we saw an opportunity to set up a business that shares our intimate knowledge of the local market in a warm, friendly and highly efficient way.

Local real estate experience

To this end, we teamed up with a local Italian real estate agent, who is registered with FIMAA and has over 25 years local experience specialising in properties around Bagni di Lucca, the heart of beautiful Tuscany. We bought our own property with expert help from our Italian partner and her geometra (surveyor/architect) husband. Their excellent, consistent service and their genuine care, truly beyond the call of duty, made us jump at the chance of collaboration.

We know you’re busy and also a little preoccupied with your big adventure. And so we’re on hand at any time to answer questions, allay fears and keep your dream on track. Our intimate knowledge of the villages and hamlets around Bagni di Lucca is second to none. Our Italian geometra was born high in the green hills above us and has lived here all his life. Together, we can help you decide whether to take on a restoration project or buy a property that’s ready to enjoy.

With our large range of Tuscan properties for sale, we are sure we have something to make all dreams come true. And something to suit every budget. Our properties range from €25,000 to well over €1,000,000.

Of course, if nothing on our books takes your fancy, we’re delighted to scout for properties that answer your particular specification*. And that will make your heart flutter.

Sounds like a big promise, but this is possible as the idea of an exclusivity deal with one agent is extremely rare in Italy. Most properties are listed with several agents. Many properties never get on to an agent’s books and can only be found by word of mouth. With experience of buying and selling properties in the UK and in Tuscany, we want to share our knowledge of the local market, but also offer a level of service you would expect from one of the major agencies in the UK – with a much more personal touch. Having spent an equal amount of time working and living in both London and Italy, we are fluent in both the language and knowledge of local laws and customs, and we want to provide you with a true Italian experience alongside a cosmopolitan service.
