Like many Italian villas, Villa Michelangelo has a remarkable history. Built originally in the 15th century as a summer home by a noble Lucchese family, it remained in the same family until the 19th century when it was given to an order of monks left homeless when Napoleon sequestered all church property. The monks divided the large rooms into smaller simpler ones and added a school that was attached to the villa. When the current owners bought the property, they spent 14 years restoring it to its original beauty, including hiring their own “Michelangelo”, an artist from Florence who lived in the villa for a few years, painstakingly restoring the 18th century frescoes and adding her own interpretations as well.
The villa looks out over a beautifully reconstructed formal garden designed using the original 1843 plans. Beyond the gardens is a view of olive groves and rolling vineyards, a small village and the distant mountains. The villa is ideally located, within walking distance to the village, which has shops and a supermarket and just 7 km north of the historic city of Lucca. Within the villa grounds there is also a “limonaia”, which has been converted into a large airy space for events such as weddings.

A paved path or a flight of steps, takes you to the formal, walled  gardens, complete with a large fountain - the air is scented by the nearby walls of roses and over 100 potted lemon and grapefruit trees, which are scattered throughout the property. The views from the formal gardens look out over the valley and a pretty village. At the far side of  the formal gardens, there is a large swimming pool area, with banks of roses and jasmine climbing two sides of an ancient wall, creating a shaded canopy area for relaxing.

LIMONAIA

The Limonaia (original lemon house) has been converted into a large hall suitable for events such as weddings or meetings. It can be divided into four private rooms if needed for meetings (projector, internet connection available). Large round tables and large windows make this a wonderful all occasion room.
