Villa La Chiusa has parts dating back
to the 17th century and parts to the 18th century
when it was enlarged and refined with decorations.It
is situated on the level countryside in Lucca
area, with a large lovely Italian garden full
of flowers, fruit trees, and old lemon pots. All
the garden is surrounded by an old garden-wall
keeping it nicely secluded from the outside world.This
elegant villa has been in the family ?for ever?.
In the old days it was part of a vast estate with
the homes for farmers behind it. All the complex
was called ? La Corte?, a typical lucchese country
settlement still existing in some areas of Lucca
countryside.The owner is a creative lady who is
still maintaining the traditional manufacturing
of old lucchesi silk fabrics for house decoration.
Her studio is located in the lemon-house, an annex
to the villa.It is consequently understandable
the way she recently fully restored the house,
equipping it with all the modern appliances, but
yet maintaining the traditional charmand character
of a typical period villa, with terracotta tiled
floors, and frescoed rooms.Antique precious furniture
and refined upholstery and decoration make the
villa elegant and charming, a special stay for
art lovers.Downstairs: Entrance-large sitting
