4 apartments with swimming pool in Celle dei Puccini – Tuscany

At the highest point of the picturesque medieval village of Celle dei Puccini, nestled among the hills of Lucca, stands a remarkable estate built around 1594. From an elevation of 400 meters, it offers panoramic views of hidden valleys, ancient Tuscan villages, and vast forests. On a clear day, you can even see the ancient Roman city of Lucca.

Celle dei Puccini is a place steeped in history and tradition. The village is known as the birthplace of the famous composer Giacomo Puccini, whose museum is located in a charming, cobbled square. Right next door is a rustic restaurant and bar where you can enjoy delicious home-cooked food. For centuries, the people of Celle have cultivated vineyards and olive groves, and the fertile land provides excellent olive oil, wine, porcini mushrooms, and fresh fruit and vegetables.

The property consists of four independent apartments:

“La Rondine” (80 m², 1 bedroom)
“Filomena” (172 m², 3 bedrooms)
“Sinfonia” (150 m², 2 bedrooms)

Entering each apartment, we are greeted by spacious interiors with a unique character. High beamed ceilings, massive chestnut doors, and terracotta floors lend the interiors a typically Tuscan atmosphere. Elegant stone fireplaces, wrought iron elements, and a sturdy staircase harmoniously blend classic style with modern amenities.

The thick, 16th-century stone walls provide excellent thermal insulation – protecting against the heat in summer and retaining warmth in winter. The history of this property dates back to its time as a monastery. Due to its location, conducive to peace and contemplation, this place was an ideal retreat for the monks.

Currently, the apartments are equipped with modern plumbing and electrical systems, as well as high-quality appliances, combining tradition and comfort. The property has a 55 m² swimming pool, renovated in 2023, offering uninterrupted views of the picturesque Tuscan hills.

This unique location offers the future owner the opportunity to live a peaceful life surrounded by nature, away from the crowds of tourists. Local shops are nearby, and the historic center of Lucca is easily accessible.
