MELOGRANO FARMHOUSE shares a wonderful intimate family heritage with its guests. The Villa is owned by a renowned Tuscan family belonging to the art industry and dates back to the 1700’s. The villa is located in the village of Segromigno, which is just 10 km from the historical centre of Lucca and just 40 minutes from Florence, The sandy beaches of Versilia and the world famous UNESCO sites of Cinque Terre.
MELOGRANO FARMHOUSE is located in the heart of Tuscany on the side of a hill and it is surrounded by wonderful vineyards and offers a truly splendid view of the countryside. The villa is stone built and has been completely refurnished to create a truly elegant and accommodating family villa. Many summers have been spent by the owner’s family within these walls, many fond memories and amazing kid’s adventures have been experienced among the old olive trees and plants in the surrounding well-kept gardens of the house.
MELOGRANO FARMHOUSE has been completely renovated in a truly authentic Tuscan style and each single piece of the furniture and decoration tells a story: it can be a gift from a loved one or a family friend visiting the villa, it can come from the grandmother’s home on the italian mountains, it can be a wedding gift or a souvenir from a special trip around the world.
The villa is located on the surrounding hills of Lucca at less than 15 mins driving from the town centre.
It is conveniently located, with easy access to Pisa and Florence, to the beaches at Forte dei Marmi, and to the undiscovered northern tip of Tuscany, Garfagnana and Lunigiana. This pretty house is in a very peaceful position surrounded by lawns and olive groves and with a lovely top view of the countryside. The Hayloft, a few metres from the house, has been converted to provide additional accommodation and the property has been provided with Wi-fi internet connection. The structure of the property and the spacious living area make it suitable for two families. There is a 10 metres infinity pool overlooking the rolling hills and the lush greenery all around. The villa itself is 300 sq metres and the hayloft is 100 sq metres. 15,000sq metres of land surrounds the villa ’Melograno’.
