The Frantoio Olive in Capannori, Tuscany

Description
In the charming village of Castelvecchio, terracotta roofs sit at jaunty angles within this hilly hamlet, contrasting beautifully with the verdant greens of surrounding Tuscan landscapes. While the region feels incredibly peaceful, it’s only a twenty-two-minute drive from the bustling medieval town of Lucca, and just over thirty from the city of Pisa. But this home feels a world away from any sort of metropolis.

A former farmhouse set in lush grounds, the owners recently renovated the building while retaining its old-world charm. With the scents of olive groves at ground level, and incredibly clear starry skies above, your rural retreat offers everything you’d expect from country living, but with a modern, luxury edge. The huge, panoramic private pool has views of the local village, and Lucca further afield, while your wooden patio is equipped with a barbecue and dining set for alfresco meals.

After sundown, head inside to admire the interiors, merging original elements with 21st-century updates. Exposed stone walls, flagstone floors, and wooden beamed ceilings ooze Tuscan tradition. But its fresh, white colour palette, chandeliers, and Scandi-style open wardrobes are elegant reminders of the modern age.
