Listing and 44 photos describe a perfectly restored 18th‑century villa with pool, so I assume €0/m² renovation. At €15,000,000 (€4,839/m²) the price is ~9.1× the local catalog median (€531/m²), so despite high quality and location this is well above the cheap‑home market and therefore overpriced.
More on the house and the area
A perfectly restored 18th‑century Tuscan villa with palatial frescoed salons, grand exterior stair, pool, dependences and sweeping hill views — utterly photogenic and livable as a turnkey grand home. Realistic ownership means accepting heritage restrictions and significant ongoing costs for heating, upkeep and staff.
The listing and its photos show a house you can move into. Anything you spend beyond the price is your choice, not a repair.
- Monumental/historic status likely — strict preservation rules and permit needs.
- Very large property with high running, heating and maintenance costs.
- Not a budget buy — price and upkeep put it out of reach for most buyers.
Estimate from the listing and its photos, not a survey. Treat it as the starting point for your own quotes. An Italian builder's quote is normally written without VAT and without design fees, so add about a quarter to any figure a firm gives you.
The area around
Location score 52/100The cluster sits on the Lucca plain between Monte Pisano to the south and the first hills that rise toward the Pizzorne plateau and the Apennine foothills to the north. The Serchio basin shapes this part of the province, with flat agricultural land, canals and settled strips between the villages. Lucca is the nearest town of size, with complete services and a walled historic centre. Within this radius the area is known mainly for the plain of Lucchesia, mixed farming and nursery cultivation rather than for a single named natural feature.
