Lune’s origins begin as a country house that was rescued from the fog of history. Originally built in 1860, for the past 160 years its grand rooms served as both a private residence and a place for lavish entertaining. To enter these grounds today is to walk among past dignitaries and bon vivants alike. We gather at Lune once more, as they did so long ago, to remember the moments and memories they left behind and to create our very own, under the moonlight. The property is designed to host intimate, private gatherings.

THE SPACE

8 Phases Of The Moon

PHASE 01

The Garden

Outside our doors is a place of untamed natural beauty. Of wildflowers and grassy fields. Left mostly untouched, gather from late spring to early fall from the avenue to our moss-covered stone paths, pond and pergola, all framed by ancient canopied evergreens and maples. Suitable for gatherings up to 100 guests.

PHASE 02

The Fountain

The avenue that leads to Lune is intersected only by our historic stonewalled fountain. The fountain runs from spring to late fall, and like the house, is modeled in classic Italianate style. An enchanting place to gather from late spring onwards, revel among the fountain gardens and towering pines. Suitable for gatherings of up to 40 seated guests.

PHASE 03

The Light Room

The light side of the moon is our airier half. Two spaces are bridged by a pair of sweeping grand arches and in the daytime natural light abounds. At dusk, shadows dance across milky frescoed walls, set aglow by custom-designed sconces and twin fireplaces with original Italian marble from 1860. Suitable for gatherings of up to 40 seated guests.

PHASE 04

The Dark Room

Only half the moon is visible from Earth and the dark side of Lune envelopes guests within its inky black frescoed walls. A fireplace with black marble mined in Italy during the late nineteenth century, custom-designed sconces and a larger-than-life gilded mirror cast dynamic shadows as day turns to night. Suitable for gatherings of up to 28 seated guests.

PHASE 05

The Arc

Between our light side and our dark side - and in the centre of it all - is our Davide Groppi Moon Pendant. Floating above this intimate hallway. Hushed conversations across candlelit tables feel especially spellbinding with the moon above our hand-sculpted barreled ceiling that illuminates from within. Suitable for gatherings of up to 20 seated guests.

PHASE 06

The Table

Bathed in natural light from rows of French windows that look out to our gardens, our dining room houses a custom sculpted plaster table and arced light. In the adjoining kitchen, our brass island and onyx backsplash can be seen, its hand-finished edge artfully mirroring the moon’s rocky terrain. Suitable for gatherings of up to 18 seated guests.

PHASE 07

The Loft

Available 2025

PHASE 08

The Garden Terrace

Looking out from the dining room and kitchen is our Garden Terrace. Inspired by our trips to Spain and Italy, the sun-baked stone patio accented with elegant iron and white lounge furnishings offers a quiet Mediterranean-like escape. Two hand sculpted stucco walls with a picture window stand among the soft ivory pea gravel adding privacy to every intimate gathering under the same Tuscan sun. Suitable for gatherings of up to 70 seated guests.

Primary Bath + Dressing Suite

A luxurious space to refresh, relax, and get ready. Includes a rain shower, two vanities + sinks, full length mirror, fireplace, and french doors that open onto the porch
