PESCAGLIA - [V0286] - The original property, built around 1594, occupies the highest point of the tiny medieval village of Celle dei Puccini, nestled on the wide hills of Lucca. From an altitude of 400 metres, a panoramic view is a particular feature, offering glimpses of hidden valleys, hidden villages and deep woodland below. On a clear day you can see as far as the Roman city of Lucca. The village of Celle, with its ancient narrow streets, is celebrated as the ancestral home of the composer Giacomo Puccini. A museum named after him stands in the pretty cobbled town square next to a rustic restaurant and bar serving excellent home cooking. Generations of Celle families have been cultivating the local land for centuries, and continue to do so. The rich dark soil continues to produce an abundance of local wine, olive oil, porcini mushrooms and wonderful fresh vegetables and fruit. On a clear night the pristine sky comes alive with stars - a true astronomical experience. The structure includes 4 independent lodgings, named as follows: "LA RONDINE" - 1 bedroom 80 sqm "FILOMENA" - 3 bedrooms 172 sq.m "SINFONIA" - 2 bedrooms 150 sq.m "BELVEDERE" - 2 bedrooms 123 sq. m The thick 16th century stone walls keep the heat of the summer out and insulate you from the cold of the winter. History tells us that the original property was built primarily as a nunnery, and given its peaceful and Shangri-la-like location, it's not hard to imagine why. For fifteen years the property has undergone a complete renovation; lovingly restored without expense, under the guidance of an admired local architect. Working with the current owners and with the full support of the village community, her design has embraced both the style of the past and the excellence of locally sourced materials. The project used the best craftsmen. The accommodation now boasts contemporary appliances, quality plumbing and modern electrical installation whilst retaining their traditional Tuscan charm. There is a charming blend of high beamed ceilings, wrought iron metalwork, chestnut beams and doors, stone fireplaces, stone staircases and beautiful terracotta floors. The accommodation is furnished to a high standard in keeping with local taste. There is a 55sqm swimming pool (refurbished in 2023) which is set in its own grounds, commanding an uninterrupted panorama of the surrounding hills, this is truly a special place. This property offers the buyer a wonderful life changing opportunity to enjoy Tuscany as it was meant to be. Away from the majestic crowds, yet within easy reach of local shops and the grand old city of Lucca. A place for families to use as a holiday home or as a long-term residence, this property is unrivaled in the region. Furthermore, the property has a proven track record as a successful holiday rental property, with all facilities for any buyer to get started immediately. Price Eu.. 1,100,000 negotiable
