Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
The views from this apartment over Piazza dell'Anfiteatro are truly wonderful. No less impressive is the home itself – the open-plan living space with its double-height ceiling is fantastic. One bedroom is a Japanese-style zen retreat, while the second is located on a mezzanine with an additional lounge area (the ceilings of this bedroom are on the low side). And while there are a lot of stairs to reach this home, you don’t have to go far for an array of shops, cafes and restaurants – they are right on your doorstep. In fact, the location couldn’t be much better – most of Lucca’s main attractions are a short stroll away, including the Duomo and Guinigi Tower.
