If the idea of staying in a beautifully-designed villa in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking views sounds like the perfect way to escape, then this home is the perfect fit. Effortlessly luxurious, this home was created to incorporate the stunning views that reach all the way to Lago Trasimeno by a well-known Italian architect and interior designer. Start your days by taking a nice cup of strong Italian coffee out on the terrace, enjoying the melodic whistling of birds and watching as the world around wakes up, the pergola is the perfect spot for a hearty Italian breakfast before whiling the day away soaking up balmy rays on plush, poolside loungers. The peace and tranquillity of this home make it perfect for those looking to escape from the humdrum of urban living. Should you wish to go out exploring, the medieval hilltop towns and cities of Lucca, Pisa, Viareggio, and Pietrasanta are some of the most charming locations you'll encounter, and are within scenic driving distance, so don't be afraid to exit the highway when you see something you like. If adventure and nature are more your scene, the wilds of Tuscany are right on your doorstep, so grab your walking boots and water bottle, and head on out to see what you can discover. When you're back, relax in the hot tub with a glass of Chianti (obligatory) and work on your tan in the afternoon when the sun is a little more pleasant.
