A short distance from the renowned beaches of Versilia, in a quiet position in Pieve di Camaiore and with the Apuan Alps framing the landscape, stands this extraordinary historic villa, a charming residence where centuries of history, art, and landscape culture coexist in an architecturally rare elegance.

The rooms develop around a central hall and include two bedrooms, a study, a bedroom with a bathroom, a room equipped with a kitchen, and a charming fully frescoed library.
