Villa 6 sovrum, 300 m²

Coreglia Antelminelli, Lucca (provins)

This Villa Liberty was built in 1910 and is very private despite its central location, this is due to the walled garden and well placed trees. Each floor is 200 mq with high ceilings and square rooms 25 mq in area.
The ground floor is a raised apartment of three bedrooms and two bathrooms. This is the apartment which has been empty a few years but has full central heating. The kitchen is large with two large windows. The sitting room has a fire place. Originally, the house was an entire villa with a central staircase but this has been cleverly hidden with a plasterboard. It will be very easy to convert this into a single home again.
There is a beautiful staircase down to the four cantinas under the house. This is where the new boiler (wood burner) is which was installed in 2018.
The house was converted into 2 apartments in 1976 when the exterior staircase was built.
The upper apartment has three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The current owners have put in a glass door to make a snug living room leading out to the south facing balcony.
The floors are tiled except for the main bedroom and the large sitting room which have the original hardwood floors. The kitchen has two entrances, one from the corridor and one from the sitting room.
In the Summer, the hot water is provided by a collector on the roof. In the Winter, the owners have an electric water heating. The roof was replaced about 20 years ago with bitumen paper but without insulation.
The garden is 7000 mq of a flat walled garden with lots of space for a pool or a tennis court.
The delightful thing about this home is that there is transport within walking distance as well as shops and bars.
