A Slice of Tuscan Life
Tucked away near the peaceful village of Stabbiano, just a short drive from the historic city of Lucca, this beloved family home has been a cherished summer retreat for generations. Set amidst olive groves and the gentle curves of Tuscan hills, it offers not just a place to stay, but a place steeped in memory, warmth, and timeless charm.
Passed down through the years, the house carries the soul of a family who has gathered here every summer—sharing meals under the trees, laughter echoing through the rooms, and quiet moments soaking in the golden light of late afternoons. Every detail speaks of care and continuity: wooden beams worn smooth with age, terracotta tiles that radiate warmth, and interiors filled with the unmistakable feeling of a home that has been truly lived in and loved.
Inside, the atmosphere is inviting and deeply personal. A sunlit sitting room beckons for afternoon reading or quiet conversation, while the dining room feels made for long, joyful dinners that stretch late into the evening. Bedrooms under sloping ceilings promise restful nights, and a stone staircase carved beside a rock wall hints at the home’s deep roots in the landscape itself.
Outside, shaded terraces offer the perfect setting for slow breakfasts or evening wine, while the lush garden hums with life. An infinity pool gazes out over the valley—a serene spot to cool off and take in the beauty that surrounds you.
And when the urge to explore strikes, you’re ideally placed: from the medieval wonders of Lucca to quaint hilltop villages, rustic trattorie, and the sunlit shores of Versilia, all are just a short drive away.
More than just a holiday house, this is a place to return to yourself. A place where time slows, connections deepen, and the rhythms of nature and family life come into beautiful harmony. A true home—filled with stories, laughter, and the gentle grace of generations past.
This is not a just a rental home, but a soulful home woven with the memories of generations, lovingly shaped over generations. It’s a place where every object has a story—a Tuscan hand-painted ceramic bowl, well-loved books, a painting —all gently collected over the years like treasures. The charm here isn’t curated, it’s lived-in: shaped by time, tradition, and the joyful rhythm of countless family summers. For those who value authenticity, warmth, and the character that only time can create, this home offers a truly special experience.
TO KNOW: The caretaker lives in a separate guesthouse on the property and is available if needed. Two friendly Labrador dogs are kept in a fenced area and occasionally accompany the caretaker to the garden or henhouse, always away from guests. They are playful and used to being around children.
The pool depth is from 20 cms to 2,7 meters

About the area
Lucca, Italy, is a captivating city that embodies the quintessential charm of Tuscany. Enclosed by well-preserved Renaissance walls that have been transformed into a pedestrian promenade, the city invites visitors to step back in time and explore its historical treasures at a leisurely pace.
The heart of Lucca is its old town, a labyrinth of cobblestone streets, picturesque piazzas, and elegant buildings. The Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, a unique elliptical square, is a highlight, built on the ruins of an ancient Roman amphitheater. Visitors can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the piazza, which is lined with cafes and shops, perfect for sipping a cappuccino and people-watching.
Lucca's rich history is showcased in its numerous churches, the most famous being the San Michele in Foro with its stunning façade and the Lucca Cathedral (Duomo di San Martino), which houses remarkable artworks and the revered Volto Santo di Lucca, a wooden crucifix. The city's religious heritage is further celebrated during the Luminara di Santa Croce festival, where Lucca is illuminated by thousands of candles in a breathtaking display.
For those with a taste for adventure, climbing the Guinigi Tower offers a rewarding experience. The tower is notable for the ancient oak trees growing atop its roof, providing a unique vantage point over the city and the surrounding Tuscan countryside.
Music enthusiasts will find Lucca especially endearing as it is the birthplace of the famous composer Giacomo Puccini. The Puccini Museum, located in his childhood home, is a pilgrimage site for opera lovers, and the city hosts an annual summer festival celebrating his works.
Beyond its historical and cultural offerings, Lucca is also a gateway to the Tuscan landscape, with opportunities for cycling and hiking along the Serchio River or through the nearby hills. The city's culinary scene is equally enticing, featuring traditional Tuscan cuisine, fine wines, and local specialties like Buccellato, a sweet bread that is a Lucca staple.
Lucca's blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, combined with its relaxed atmosphere and friendly locals, makes it a destination that offers a truly authentic Italian experience. Whether you're seeking to immerse yourself in history, enjoy the arts, or simply indulge in the pleasures of Italian life, Lucca is a city that will capture your heart and leave you longing to return.
