A three-minute walk from the 11th century Lucca Cathedral, discover a secret garden home in the shadows of its striking facade. Housed in a former palace, this apartment is set in a medieval oasis of calm right in the middle of this bustling city. As you step inside, you can’t help but immediately notice the modern, white spiral staircase and the array of vintage furniture in the bright, sunny living room. With matching white furniture, enormous windows, a glamorous chandelier, and pops of red, these interiors have been designed with VIPs in mind. This continues throughout the home, with an impressive four-poster bed offering gorgeous views of the garden on the ground floor, while the upstairs master provides another glorious perspective above the treetops. From the lounge, open up the French doors to step out into this renaissance garden, brimming with lush greenery. You can smell Mediterranean scents of fresh orange zest from the plump fruits growing on the trees. Pour yourself a glass of Tuscan wine and take in your gorgeous surroundings. And if you want even more, visit the Orto Botanico Comunale di Lucca, just a two-minute stroll from home.
