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.

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.

Distances and Attractions
Villa Jasmine enjoys a privileged location on the hills above Viareggio, one of Tuscany's most celebrated seaside destinations, placing guests within easy reach of the golden beaches of the Versilia coast, just a few kilometres away. The area has long been a popular destination for both Italian and international travellers, drawn by its natural beauty, cultural heritage, and vibrant seaside atmosphere. Nearby Torre del Lago is a particularly notable attraction, renowned as the long-time residence and creative inspiration of the celebrated composer Giacomo Puccini, who spent extended periods there. The shimmering waters of Lake Massaciuccoli, visible directly from the villa, add a further dimension of natural splendour to the surrounding landscape. The village of Bargecchia, on the edge of which the villa is situated, provides a tranquil and authentic Tuscan setting while remaining conveniently close to the amenities, restaurants, and cultural offerings of the wider Versilia region.
