This modern Tuscan retreat is a feat of contemporary architecture. Both the villa and guest house are constructed against a dramatic white marble hillside, and the villa’s translucent and open design allows the natural surroundings to seamlessly blend with the space. With panoramic windows, unique iron shutters, and a hydraulically operated roof, the property feels alive, inviting Tuscany’s natural beauty indoors.

The main villa can accommodate up to 6 guests comfortably, with additional space for a couple of children or one adult in the sitting area. The spacious guest house offers a private retreat for up to 6 more guests, with room for additional children if needed. Both properties boast fully-equipped kitchens, luxurious bedrooms, and outdoor terraces perfect for soaking in views of Lucca below. The pool is a marvel of design, with a jacuzzi section, lap area, and breathtaking views from the terrace.
