Bright and stylish, this apartment on the second floor of a renaissance building is wonderfully laid out, welcoming guests in with fresh, open spaces, comfortable furnishings and a relaxed ambience. The ancient city of Lucca is the perfectly-juxtaposed backdrop to this chic, modern home. The open-plan kitchen, living room, and dining area make this home distinct yet comforting, thanks to super-high ceilings and a colour palette that mixes clean white with vibrant reds and greens. Each room is saturated in warm sunlight, thanks to the huge huge windows, and the patio terrace is ideal for early morning coffee and candlelit, star-strewn evening dinners, overlooking the city square and church. You’re close to the action, with quaint cobblestone streets and little avenues waiting to be explored, as well as sumptuous restaurants to sample local delicacies and produce. For those looking to explore further afield, the iconic city of Pisa is just a twenty-seven-minute drive from home and offers a wealth of bars and restaurants, as well as more historical and cultural sights than you could possibly fit into one day.
