Ancient farmhouse with park and swimming pool, for sale on the hills of Lucca, located in an easy-to-reach position, at the foot of the hills and a few minutes from the characteristic town of Montecarlo, famous for its wine and oil.
Access to the property is guaranteed by a pedestrian entrance and two motorized driveway gates, one of which is newly built and leads us through a well-kept tree-lined avenue to the parking area.
The farmhouse is immersed in a large and well-kept park of about 15.000 square meters on which there is a generously sized swimming pool, with an adjacent solarium area, as well as an artificial lake in local stone surrounded by wonderful flower beds. The park, although the property is located on the first hill, is mostly flat, so much so that a tennis court could also be inserted there, and is protected by tall trees.
The farmhouse was carefully renovated in 2023 and is on two floors above ground plus a cellar in the basement for a total of 520 square meters and is divided into the main residence and the old barn used as an outbuilding.
Entering the main residence, on the ground floor we are greeted by a large open space of about 150 square meters that extends along the entire length of the farmhouse divided, by furniture, into a relaxation area in front of the imposing stone fireplace, TV area and study, as well as a dining area. The latter is connected to the functional and spacious eat-in kitchen also equipped with a fireplace, in addition to the adjacent pantry. This level is completed by a guest bathroom and, with access only from the outside, the technical lease.
Going up the stone staircase you reach the first floor where the entire sleeping area is located. A corridor leads to 4 generously sized double bedrooms, all very bright, with a view of the park, the master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom of about 30 square meters.
Another large bathroom and a closet complete this level.
With an external entrance you access the barn where the original almond floor has been maintained and used as a loft for guests or as a residence for service staff.
The property is suitable both for those looking for a property in which to place their main residence, as it is a few steps from all the main services and for those who want a holiday home in the quiet of the countryside but well connected to all the major Tuscan art cities and the coast.
