Villa

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 origins of the property date back to the 16th century, while the configuration visible today is the result of subsequent transformations that took place between the 18th and 20th centuries. Over the centuries, the villa was enriched by a succession of decorated and frescoed rooms, each characterized by a specific artistic identity and a distinct decorative theme, creating a pathway through different eras and languages.

The ground floor opens with two mirror-image entrance halls, located respectively on the main and rear façades. The latter is now used as a billiard room. The level also includes an elegant dining room, a fumoir, a large kitchen with fireplace, a small dining area, a bathroom, and a cellar. The decorations of the rooms, created in the early decades of the 20th century, develop the theme of travel through representations of distant, even exotic landscapes, accompanied by refined floral motifs.

The noble floor constitutes the most representative level of the residence and is characterized by valuable 19th-century frescoes related to the Lucchese decorative tradition. Here are a large hall with a piano, three bedrooms (including the master bedroom with fireplace), two bathrooms, and a hallway. A cozy lounge, fully decorated and equipped with a fireplace, leads to the outdoor spaces, creating a natural continuity between the interior environments and the garden.

The second floor preserves another element of great artistic value: an important cycle of 18th-century frescoes entirely dedicated to the landscapes of Rome. 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.
