- 2:14Calvani explores wisteria-covered pergolas, outdoor seating and the estate's dining area.
- 6:36The olive-grove walk leads into herb gardens and a woodland apiary with affirmation-labeled hives.
- 14:12A wood-fired sauna and hot tub form the outdoor spa, before the house tour begins at 15:42.
- 17:17In the kitchen, Calvani shows his stove and slicer and explains food's growing place in his life.
- 20:16The mudroom doubles as a dog lounge; the dining room features an antique armoire repurposed for display.
- 23:58The guest-suite tour begins with Quercus, its green-and-pink palette and an original chestnut beam.
The mudroom has a second job: it's the dachshunds' lounge. Luca Calvani has given the dogs sleeping space alongside the boot storage, with wood paneling tying their corner into the rest of his Tuscan farmhouse.
That lived-in detail is part of the appeal of "Touring Luca Calvani's Historic Italian Farmhouse and Country Estate," which drew about 28,000 views in fourteen hours, well ahead of The Luxury Home Show's usual first-day pace. On a channel whose recent tours include an F1 showroom and a vast California estate, this visit spends as much time among trees and beehives as it does admiring rooms.
Calvani, an actor, author and chef, welcomes viewers to Le Gusciane in Camaiore, where he and his husband, Alessandro, have gradually restored the property. Outside are wisteria-covered pergolas, an olive grove and a woodland apiary. A vintage French milk van has become an outdoor bar; a secluded cabana offers somewhere to read.
The tour doesn't cross the threshold until nearly halfway through. Once inside, the restoration becomes a story of keeping and repurposing: an antique armoire from Lucca supplies both a dining-room display cabinet and bookshelves upstairs. An original chestnut beam remains in the Quercus guest suite, amid green and pink furnishings.
One viewer singles out the traditional kitchen rather than a more modern makeover. Calvani's own approach comes through upstairs in the Liquidambar suite: "I think when it's cozy, make it cozier."
