Prestigious Historic Residence on Lake Massaciuccoli - Immersed in the Nature of the Natural Park
In this villa lived Giacomo Puccini, who composed some of his most famous operas here.
In the heart of Tuscany, overlooking the picturesque shores of Lake Massaciuccoli, we offer for sale an exclusive historic liberty-style residence, unique for its position, charm, and architectural value. The property, located in the hamlet of Quiesa (Lucca), is just a few kilometers from the renowned towns of Lucca (13 km), Pisa (15 km), Forte dei Marmi (29 km), and Florence (less than 100 km). The nearby Pisa International Airport (17 km) and optimal road connections make it easily accessible from all parts of Italy and abroad.
The main residence, dating back to the 18th century and subject to a significant neo-Gothic style renovation in the early 1900s, is spread over four levels with a total area of approximately 1,200 square meters. Characterized by elegant exposed brick decorations, mullioned windows with stone columns, and a refined porch overlooking the garden, it retains original furnishings, a lounge with a veranda, numerous bedrooms, and the piano played by famous guests.
The property includes a total of about 23 bedrooms, of which at least 11 are already existing and operational, and the rest need to be completed or renovated. The rooms are distributed among the main villa, the 18th-century building (partially used as a reception structure), apartments, and outbuildings.
The real estate complex also includes:
Partially renovated 18th-century historic building (approximately 800 square meters), with a dock and a project for a reception structure.
Unconsecrated private chapel (approximately 23 square meters), dedicated to Saint Andrew.
Club House (total of approximately 320 square meters between the entrance building and the actual club house) with a professional kitchen, living area with fireplace, services, and an apartment.
Partially renovated loft and apartment (185 square meters), with the possibility of creating a greenhouse/winter garden.
Lemon house in a state of ruin (72 square meters), with potential for reconstruction as a greenhouse of approximately 67 square meters.
The entire property extends over a land of over 98,000 square meters, including:
Exotic and acclimatized gardens with palm trees and oriental plants,
Agricultural and arable lands,
Wooded areas,
Private pond,
Navigable internal canals directly connecting to the lake,
Docks and boat storage,
Area with 4 fishing scales.
The estate, historically owned by noble Tuscan families and a meeting point for intellectuals and artists (including one of the greatest Italian composers), represents a rare combination of architectural elegance, history, and immersion in nature.
Subject to landscape constraints and located within the Migliarino - San Rossore - Massaciuccoli Natural Park, it offers an ideal setting for those looking to invest in a prestigious private residence, a charming tourist-accommodation structure, or a cultural and artistic project.
