Nestled amongst the remarkable countryside of Lucca, Villa Paolina is a historic property which has its origins in the 15th Century. From its vantage point, the property affords views across the hills, stretching all the way out to sea.
And, if all that isn’t enough to satisfy your craving to get into the Great Outdoors, it also comes with an impressive farm consisting of several rural buildings, which is dedicated to the production of oil from the 111 hectares of olive groves.
The villa has an elongated structure, typical of the Lucca style, and its façade is embellished with ornate windows, simple and elegant stone cornices, and a characteristic portal. The front entrance to the villa has a wonderful double staircase, which you can descend to reach a beautiful Italian garden below.
Step inside, and the villa is spread over five floors. In the basement, a billiard room is connected directly to the garden, and you can also find a large dining room, living room with a big stone fireplace, two bathrooms, and a spacious kitchen.
Complementing the villa’s historic authenticity and individuality, the property has been completely renovated and modernised and boasts many luxurious features including a heated outdoor pool and Jacuzzi as well as a private helipad.
