Luxury 6-bed Tuscan villa near Lucca and Florence w/saltwater pool | Villa in Capannori
6 Bedroom Villa in Cascine-La Croce, Capannori
The Frantoio is an ancient olive mill, situated on a sunny hillside in a private 9 acre olive estate in Tuscany. The Frantoio has recently been fully converted and refurbished into a luxury property which now hosts holiday guests and annual retreats. Beautifully furnished and well appointed throughout, the interiors have been carefully chosen to complement the building and yet are contemporary, chic and stylish. Air-conditioning throughout, central heating, Sonos music system, Sky TV and strong wi-fi.
Until the late 1960's the Frantoio was a working olive estate and mill, employing many local villagers.
The bedrooms are all light and spacious; our Egyptian bed linens, feather mattress toppers and comfortable pocket spring mattresses ensure a luxuriously comfortable sleep. Each bedroom has a private en-suite bathroom with Davines bathroom products.
Other rooms include a study with screen to plug in your laptop, two private living rooms for bedrooms, a wine cellar, dining room and laundry room (with a Miele washing machine and tumble dryer).
The property has two large well equipped kitchens with doors leading onto dining terraces. Both have American style fridge freezers, dishwashers, hobs and high quality kitchen equipment. The main kitchen has two double steam Miele ovens, a Nespresso coffee machine, Bialetti Moka, an American filter coffee machine, Bialetti French coffee press, electric kettle and large toaster. All store cupboard essentials are supplied. The main kitchen has been architecturally designed as a chefs 'teaching kitchen' with chestnut beams, handmade chestnut kitchen units and large table, a Carrara marble sink and a stainless steel work surface.
The Tuscan summer kitchen is perfectly situated for the pool area and includes a dining area, antique stone sink, microwave, Nespresso coffee machine, Smeg fridge/freezer, 5 burner hob and dishwasher. It is an ideal place to enjoy a light lunch or to prepare light meals for the pool and garden terrace.
There are several dining areas throughout the property to choose from.
The stunning 10mtr x 6 mtr swimming pool with feature shallow pool surround is perfect for young children and has been created in the shape of the original mill pond.
