3间卧室公寓, 120 m²

巴尼-迪卢卡, Lucca (省)

Bathed in golden Tuscan light, this enchanting apartment in the heart of Ponte a Serraglio captures the essence of la dolce vita. Perfectly positioned in the village center, it offers the rare pleasure of strolling hand in hand to charming cafés, local boutiques, and everyday essentials just moments from your door—a place where life slows, and every moment feels savored.
Set on the second floor of a historic former hotel in the sought-after area of Bagni di Lucca, the home whispers stories of a bygone era, when Ponte a Serraglio flourished as one of Europe’s most celebrated spa destinations. From the 18th and 19th centuries, aristocrats, writers, and travelers on the Grand Tour were drawn here by the famed thermal waters—renowned since Roman times for their healing properties. Elegant bathhouses, refined villas, and grand hotels lined the river, creating an atmosphere of cultured leisure and quiet indulgence that still lingers in the air today.
Even now, the communal entrance reflects this noble heritage, with its impressive proportions and sweeping staircase leading gracefully to the second floor, where the apartment awaits.
Step inside, and you are welcomed by an expansive, light-filled living space where soaring ceilings create a sense of openness and calm. The kitchen blends seamlessly into this airy room, inviting long, leisurely evenings with family and friends. A glass door opens onto a charming east-facing terrace—perfect for sipping morning coffee as the first sunlight spills across the hills. Even in winter, the warmth of the Tuscan sun makes it a magical place to begin the day.
Graceful arches guide you into the zona notte, where three generous double bedrooms await, each recently enhanced with new double-glazed windows for comfort and tranquility. A full bathroom and an additional cloakroom complete the interior, both thoughtfully updated while preserving the home’s timeless character. Throughout the apartment, elegant flooring installed during a full restoration in 2006 adds a sense of continuity and refinement, while the original windows and lovingly maintained shutters echo its historic soul.
Yet the true romance of this property reveals itself just below…
A hidden treasure, the lower-level cantina has been transformed into a captivating summer kitchen, opening directly onto a garden and solarium that overlook the gentle flow of the river. This intimate outdoor space—recently structurally restored—feels like a secret sanctuary, where long lunches turn into sunset aperitivos and the soft murmur of water recalls the very springs that made this place famous.
Here, in a town shaped by its thermal waters and timeless beauty, you are not simply buying a home—you are stepping into a rich and enduring story of wellness, elegance, and Italian charm.
