Hand painted with passion and meticulous attention to detail by esteemed restoration-and-interior specialists, Giannoni & Santoni of Livorno… an instantly enchanting entrance hallway enrobed in a stunning tromp-l’œil, Italianate garden mural complete with pretty arbours, ambrosial vistas and fluffy white clouds (don’t forget to look up!) with Versailles wooden parquet flooring guiding you towards…
A fabulous dual-aspect main living room (well insulated from the bustle outside) comprising sumptuous sitting / dining areas with windows facing the piazza and hills beyond (what views!) and showcasing the most incredible blue marble-and-wood flooring crafted in such a way as to appear 3D, beautiful hand-painted beams scattered with leaf motifs above, plenty of comfy seating plus a traditional dining suite lit by lantern hosting 6 guests with ease surrounded by a collection of fine art that grabs your attention and upholds that all-embracing period Lucchese vibe
The well-equipped kitchen – a very luxe affair built for conviviality and culinary creativity – with deep vermilion bespoke cabinetry, marble work surfaces, antique mirror backsplashes and a host of Gaggenau appliances, including that all-important wine cellar for keeping the local Montecarlo Bianco chilled and ready!
