La Sorgente
A restored olive mill turned family haven, La Sorgente offers six bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a fenced saltwater pool in the Tuscan hills. Just minutes from village life, between medieval Lucca and the Versilia coast.
Olive Mill turned Tuscan treasure
Between the medieval towers of Lucca and the Versilia coastline, this restored stone villa offers a peaceful retreat amongst Tuscan olive groves. The property features a fenced saltwater pool, making it particularly suitable for families, while its position in the hills provides sweeping views across the countryside. Once an olive mill and barn, the building has been thoughtfully converted into a spacious home that balances rustic charm with modern practicality.
Description
The restoration has preserved the villa's original character whilst incorporating practical updates throughout. Every bedroom has been equipped with air-conditioning and comes with an en-suite bathroom. The fully equipped kitchen provides everything needed for preparing meals, while Wi-Fi connectivity and a washer and dryer in the service room ensure convenience during longer stays.
Two separate living areas offer flexibility for larger groups, allowing everyone to find their own space when needed. Each bedroom comes with its own en-suite bathroom, removing any morning queues. The interiors blend rustic and elegant elements, creating comfortable spaces that feel both welcoming and refined. Outside, the landscaped garden provides various terraces and quiet corners where you can settle with a book or gather for meals overlooking the olive groves.
The saltwater pool serves as the property's focal point, offering a gentler alternative to chlorinated water. Its secure fencing means children can play safely while adults relax nearby. A village sits just five minutes away with a supermarket, pizzeria and bar for daily essentials. From here, Florence's monuments make an easy day trip, as do the beach clubs of Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi. Wine estates dot the surrounding countryside, while the artistic town of Pietrasanta offers galleries and workshops to explore.
