4 Bed Villa for sale
Borgo a Mozzano, Lucca, Tuscany, Italy
Full Description
Fantastic 17th Century Villa along the old processional road to Pescaglia. This villa was partly lived in until the 1980's and, indeed, even has a boiler from that period.
The courtyard was originally open to the road to allow the carrages going to the Municipal town of Pescaglia to enter in the, now cantina but was once the garage for the carraiges. One see that the stone of the wall has been sculpted to allow the carrages easy access without damaging the wheels.
There is a chapel under the loggia which was consecrated until 30 years ago and formed part of the religious procession from Diecimo to Pescaglia.
The ground floor consists of 5 cantinas and the original kitchen with French doors out to the garden.
There is a double staircase going up to the gorgeous frescoed sitting room with elegant doors to the other rooms and the balcony in the front.
There is another room on this level with another French door out to a balcony, this is smaller and would make an amazing study.
There are two more bedrooms which then connect to the bathroom and kitchen that was used in the 1980's.
Up again, there is a section of the villa that was converted into a two.bedroomed apartment with parque floors and a bathroom with shower. This apartment is also characterised by the double staircase.
Behind the villa, the servants house is attached, this is characterised with beams and wooden floors. The servants' house is also on three floors with a cantina on the ground floor, a kitchen and two rooms on the first floor and three more rooms on the upper floor. It has its own entrance but is also connected to the villa.
Outside is a separate annex on two floors with new floors and a new roof. The owner could make this liveable very easily whilst doing up the villa and servants' house into a wonderful home or business venture.
The position of the village is strategic with easy access to the dormitory town of Diecimo and the station to take one to Lucca. This area is within very easy commuting access for local people too.
