Ancient stone walls surround this
vast park-like garden planted with persimmon fruit trees, roses,
wisterias, and grapevines.
The sunny terrace is lined by
terracotta planters with a profusion of geraniums. The outdoor "al
fresco" seating group is a pleasant setting for coffee in the morning
and drinks in the evening.
For your enjoyment in the summer-time, inside the
private garden is a 26 foot
diameter newly built round in-ground swimming pool.
Lucca
was made famous and wealthy centuries ago by the silk trade. The artist-owner has a private
drapery studio with historical fabrics on the property.

The care-taker has a private
apartment on the property. The owner keeps a separate smaller house
for herself at the far corner of the garden; this house is not seen
from the villa.
