The villa is registered with the Association of Italian Historic villas constructed to serve the spa at San Giuliano Terme which has been known as a spa resort since 1618.  The villa was completely restructured in the middle of the 19th century to take it back to a classic villa interior design.  This restoration included the addition of important frescos.  This restoration includedthe planting of a fantastic botanic garden called "il giardino di Armida" which was designed by Cesare Studiati who we believe was resident in the villa at the time.  The garden, at the time of our visit, was the home to owls, it is noted as being an excellent habitat also for peacocks and butterflies.

The villa is hidden by a wall and electric gates, there is an ample, gravel driveway with parking for a number of cars.

One enters into the double height salon with central columns (6 x 10)  off this main room there are three rooms either side.  Plus a bathroom on each wing of the villa.  These rooms are 16 mq each apartment from the breakfast room which is 12 mq.

On the first floor, there is an apartment which is rented out to tourists in the season.  This apartment has 4 bedooms and 2 bathrooms.  There is an eat-in kitchen (3 x 4 m) which comes off the 50 mq sitting room.  The four bedrooms all come off this main sitting room which opens out onto the terrace in front.  All the bedrooms have air-conditioning.

The owners live on the second floor, this apartment has three bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an eat-in kithen, and a study.

The bathrooms are in Carrara marble.  The villa is also equipped with a biliard room.

Behind the villa is 15 x 5 m swimming pool set on the lawn.  It was put in in 2008.  The entire garden is fenced with a garage for cars inside.

The Villa is found equi-distant between the historic cities of Lucca to the north and Pisa to the house at the base of the hills which separate these two cities, along the ancient route Via Julia Augusta e Via Aemilia Scauri which form part of the Silk Route.

Bars, restaurants, shops and banks are just 2 km away along a level road.  The villa is also inserted into the  "La Strada dell’Olio dei Monti Pisani”.  There is also the famous spa "Bagni di Pisa" just 2 km with a regular bus service running right in front of the villa to get to Pisa, Lucca amd the airport just 12 km away.  6 km away is the motorway to connect to all part of Italy. 

The location is key and the villa is spectacular.
