Villa Gabri 8

Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled on the rolling hills of Montecarlo, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Villa Gabri is a prestigious vacation rental that rises from a masterful restoration of an ancient country house into an elegant and refined residence. Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, this exceptional property blends the timeless materials of Tuscan tradition — including Pietra Serena di Cardoso, Carrara marble, and wax-treated walls reminiscent of the great stately homes of Lucca — into an atmosphere of rare sophistication. The villa extends across 3 floors and is enveloped by a fully fenced flat garden of approximately 5,000 square meters, featuring an immaculate English lawn, terracotta pots with lemon plants, ancient vases, multicolored floral essences, and the characteristic olive trees of the region. Ample private parking is available on the property, and the expansive yard offers guests an exclusive outdoor retreat where tranquility and natural beauty converge seamlessly.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Villa Gabri are a true extension of the villa's elegance and charm. The garden, completely fenced and bordered by carefully maintained hedges, is enriched with aromatic plant bushes, ancient decorative vases, and a variety of flowering essences that change with the seasons. Adjacent to the main entrance, a generous outdoor living area shaded by large umbrellas is divided into 2 distinct zones: one dedicated to al fresco dining, where guests can enjoy breakfasts and lunches at a spacious table surrounded by the scents of the vineyards, and one arranged as a comfortable outdoor sitting area for relaxation. A mobile barbecue is also available in this area, perfect for organizing convivial gatherings in a setting of absolute tranquility. For younger guests, a ping-pong table is available near the pool alongside the wide lawn, which is ideal for outdoor games. The swimming pool, positioned at the front of the villa approximately 25 meters from the entrance and accessible through the rectangular square in front, measures 7 m x 13 m with a depth ranging from 1 m to 2.40 m. It is a non-heated pool, elegantly lined with blue mosaic in the style of Roman baths, and features 2 internal Roman staircases for easy entry, 3 hydromassage stations, and internal lighting. The teak wood solarium surrounding the pool is equipped with comfortable sun loungers shaded by 3 umbrellas and a hot shower for guests' convenience. The pool is open from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October. Please be aware that the 2 side wings of the villa are occupied by the owners, who are described as very discreet and respectful of guests' privacy; however, the garden and pool are reserved for the exclusive use of guests.

Unit Layout

Villa Gabri accommodates up to 8 guests across its 4 elegantly appointed bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, distributed over 3 floors. The ground floor is accessible from multiple entry points and features a spacious living area comprising a large living room with a TV corner, sofas, an ornamental fireplace, and a table suitable for games or work. A large, bright kitchen with a dining area completes the ground floor, along with 2 service bathrooms: one adjacent to the kitchen, equipped with a washing machine, and one near the front entrance that also benefits from direct external access, making it conveniently usable by guests coming from the pool. A majestic marble staircase leads from the living room to the first floor, where the sleeping area is located. This floor houses all 4 double bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom: 2 bathrooms are fitted with a shower, while the remaining 2 are fitted with both a shower and a whirlpool bath. Continuing up the staircase to the second floor, guests arrive at a bright open space with an additional bathroom with shower.

Distances and Attractions

Villa Gabri enjoys a privileged location just 3 km from the medieval village of Montecarlo, a charming hilltop settlement nestled between Lucca and the Val di Nievole, renowned for producing one of Tuscany's most celebrated red wines. The famous wine road that winds through the area is lined with cellars where guests can taste the local vintages firsthand. The proximity to the A11 highway exit at Altopascio makes it easy to reach a wealth of iconic Tuscan destinations, including Lucca, Pisa, Forte dei Marmi, and Florence. The celebrated thermal centers of Montecatini Terme and Monsummano Terme, home to the renowned Grotta Giusti, are also easily accessible within a short drive. Cycling enthusiasts will appreciate that the property is situated along the Biogiro road, a scenic route designed by a celebrated Italian cyclist that connects the most important towns in the province of Lucca. Families traveling with children will find the nearby town of Collodi particularly appealing, as it is home to the Pinocchio theme park, where the beloved fairytale comes to life for younger visitors.
