This home was once an ancient mill operated by the owner's grandfather, who worked its wheel to produce flour for the surrounding village. Now, it's a rustic escape steeped in charm. Traditional stone walls, terracotta tiles, and nods to its milling past add a sense of history to every room – though you'll find plenty of contemporary touches here, too. The garden is bathed in golden light, making it the ideal spot to enjoy tipples and alfresco Tuscan feasts. There's also a private heated pool where you can make the most of lazy days at home. When you're ready to explore, you'll find the ancient city of Lucca just a short drive away.
