Located in the historic heart of the city, this modern apartment is a serene urban oasis with splendid 360° views of the city walls and surrounding gardens.
Breaking with the classic context of the historic city, designers Marco Vincenzi and Andrea Caturegli of Studiòvo, have created a thoroughly contemporary space with a dominant monochromatic palette of white and dove gray that complements the warm oak floors and accents and natural linen fabrics. Subdivided into a living and dining area with a spectacular curved walled kitchen, the space is open and airy with a minimalist yet comfortable approach to design. All of the hand crafted furnishings were designed specifically for the apartment and special emphasis was placed on an intricate lighting system throughout the space to create a striking ambience.
There are two en suite bedrooms that sleep up to four with a shared therapeutic hammam and even a cozy fireplace in the master bath.
The enormous three sided terrace projects the residence out over the city and is equipped for total relaxation with a teak solarium and heated spa with hydromassage and chromotherapy capability. This is a luxurious and private spot to take in the city and makes this an indulgent and stylish vacation home in Italy.

AROUND
Centrally located in the most historic center of Lucca, you will be ideally situated to explore this ancient, medieval city. A former Roman colony, there are traces of history everywhere. From centuries old Ducal palaces, churches and fortifications to the remnants of the Roman amphitheater, there is much to explore. There’s no shortage of amazing cafes, shops and restaurants along with fresh local markets and if you’re timing is right, check out the monthly antique market. A sprawling cacophony of antique items and curios on the third weekend of the month. The drama of history is everywhere and is all tightly contained within the ancient fortified walls. Don’t miss Piazza dell’Anfiteatro, the ellipse of medieval houses that comprise the central region of the city that were built around the amphitheater ruins. The fabulous seaside resort town of Versilia and Viareggio beach are under a half hour away.
