Villa Dell’Angelo is an antique villa which is 350 m above sea level, overlooks the whole plain, from a hillside landscape typical of the Lucca countryside. The estate, which dates back to the 17th century, is comprised of various groups of cottages, lived in by peasants. The surrounding land covers an area of about 44 hectares mainly dedicated to grapevines and olives following the classic Tuscan tradition. The current owner maintained the original structure of the villa during renovation. The villa is finished with stones and plaster, and has been recently restored by the owners who have carefully conserved the original materials. Still in view is the antique Olive Oil Mill which is situated in front of the property offering a real-life memorial to the hard work of the local farmers. Next to the main villa there is a small apartment which is completely independent and is where the caretaker resides, a very reserved person who ensures the maintenance of the villa while respecting the complete privacy of its guests.
The villa is spread over 4 floors. From the parking area leads to the first floor composed by entrance/dining room, an old stone kitchen, a service bathroom, a modern kitchen and laundry room. Also, on this floor there are two living rooms with fireplace (not working), one with direct access to the garden. Through an internal stone staircase that reaches the second floor made of two double bedrooms sharing a bathroom with tub, another double bedroom with en-suite bathroom with shower and a small study equipped with bunk bed ideal for two kids, and a double bedroom with French bed with en-suite bathroom with shower. Via a wooden staircase reaching the upper floor you have access to a quadruple room with en-suite bathroom with shower.
From the first floor, where is the dining room/entrance, thanks to an internal wooden staircase you can access the ground floor, where there is a tavern consisting of a kitchenette, dining area and a bathroom with shower. This environment has direct access to the garden through a large door.
From the garden you can reach a small independent apartment made of a further double bedroom with en-suite bathroom with shower.
Outside the property extends to over 20 hectares the majority of which is cultivated with vines, olives and forests. The area surrounding the villa is about 1000 m2 and is a very well-kept garden with crisp green lawn and fruit trees. In the garden at guest’s disposal under an impressive oak tree is a table and chairs ideal dine in the shade enjoying the view. The fenced pool, situated in a panoramic position, about 30 meters from the property, measures 6 x 12 metres with a variable depth from 1,50 m to 3,00 m. Only a few steps away from the pool there is a wrought iron gazebo equipped with table and chairs. Also at guest’s disposal are sun loungers, umbrellas and external shower.
