2. the limonaia (130 sqm)
3. a building called "hut" (150 square meters)
4. other service buildings (125 sqm)

The main villa is spread over three levels above ground plus basement and consists of five independent apartments with double entrances that are connected by reception rooms in the central wing. In total there are 3 living rooms, a dining room, 2 studies, 9 bathrooms, 10 bedrooms, 4 kitchens and a cellar of 60sqm. Possibility to build a swimming pool in front of the villa.

Located in a hilly position the villa offers beautiful panoramic views over the surrounding countryside of Lucca.
