Magnificent 15th Century Villa in the Tuscan foothills € 1450000
Description
Villa Raffaelli was a medieval fortress from the year 1000 until
in1582, it became a magnificent villa and the country home of the
Raffaellis, a nobile family from Lucca. Situated in the small mountain
village of Fosciandora, Tuscany it overlooks the village and the
Serchio valley and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding Apuane
mountains. Settled in 200,000 sqm of private grounds which include
vines and an old farmhouse that needs restoring, the villa boasts an
Italian garden and a domed hot tub as well as a swimming pool and a
lemon house, stables and even a secret garden! Most of the 800sqm villa
was restored around 2010 and at the moment it is composed of 6 bedrooms
which depict the original style with four-poster beds and 4 bathrooms,
a library, a music room, sitting rooms and kitchens. With further
renovation work the number of rooms can be increased. Villa Raffaelli
is the perfect place to soak up the calm and quiet of rural Tuscany.
The frescoed vaulted ceilings, the cool floors and the sounds and
fragrances of this historical villa invite you in and make you feel at
home. Villa Rafaelli is only a short drive away from the spa town of
Bagni di Lucca and the medieval village of Barga and is 40 minutes from
the Roman walled town of Lucca. Florence and the other major cities of
interest in Tuscany are easy to reach from the villa as are Forte dei
Marmi and the beaches.
