The Villa

Looking at your left you spot the majestic trullo – a traditional stone building that you will only find in this area of the region. The main villa of this property is arranged over 2 floors, for a total of 295 sq.m., constituting two separate apartments connected by an internal staircase. They can easily be turned into a single home on two floors.

Ground Floor

Step into the first apartment through the grand French doors overlooking the garden and the pool. You’re greeted by the large living and dining area which could seat up to 8 people. This room is bright and welcoming, perfect for warm days as it directly opens out onto the garden. On the right side of this room, you access the kitchen. On the left side of the living room, you then find two bedrooms and a bathroom, while to the right, past the kitchen, you access the third bedroom with its en-suite bathroom, all furnished with exquisite taste, bright and modern. This apartment also features a storage room accessible from outside and a stunning porch placed next to the living room, directly opening out onto the garden and the pool – perfect for summer meals in the shade.

First Floor

Access to this apartment is granted through the outdoor staircase leading you to the upper level of the property. You step into the living area through the large French door placed directly on the long terrace that wraps around the front of the house. From here you have a stunning view of the pool and the greenery surrounding the house. The living and dining area is spacious and grants direct access to the kitchen. This area is very luminous thanks to the grand French doors, and also features a cozy fireplace and a guest bathroom. From here you then access the four bedrooms, elegant and bright, all with en-suite bathroom. There is also a storage room close to the living area which can be employed as a pantry or storage for cleaning appliances.

The Trullo

Placed just a few steps away from the main villa you spot the two peaks of the 35 sq.m. trullo, whose façade features locally sourced stones and white walls, along with a few steps allowing you to access the roof. Stepping into this splendid little home you enter the bedroom, embedded in stone vaults for a uniquely idyllic atmosphere. From here you access the living area where you can create a small cooking area, perfect for intimate candlelight dinners. A few steps away you instead spot the bathroom. It is the perfect suite for a romantic two-people getaway, and for those who want to experience the full beauty of Apulian traditional homes.

The Land

This majestic property sits on 8.300 sq.m of fenced land, enriched by several olive, oak and cork trees. Here you and your guests can make your very own organic olive oil, or simply relax under the shade of the gazebos in the stunning garden. Outdoor living is easy by the jaw-dropping 10 x 4m pool, lined by a sundeck where you can place deckchairs for tanning in the red-hot sun of southern Italy.

The Location

Located in one of the most idyllic settings in Apulia, this stunning estate sits at about a ten-minute drive from the center of Ostuni. You can choose to visit this lovely town or relish in the privacy and quiet of the property, sipping a cold drink by the pool. Ostuni is worldwide known as the “white town”, which you can spot from afar amongst the neighbouring towns. Get lost along the streets that wind through ancient olive groves, all the way up the hill. Here you find a labyrinth of alleys and lime-painted walls, filled with restaurants and cafes where you can sample the true, traditional Apulia. It is an extremely lively town, very close to the coast and perfect if you want to go for a swim in one of the best coastal areas of Italy. Its location is also strategic as it’s not too far from other key towns in Valle D’Itria, such as Carovigno, San Michele Salentino, Locorotondo, Ceglie Messapica and many others.

Why Buy It

This property is ideal if you’re looking for the perfect middle ground between quiet, tranquil living and experiencing the full range of what Apulia has to offer, but also a place to employ as a tourist accommodation. This stunning estate offers a lot of possibilities: you have two large apartments and a suite which you can wholly rent out. You can also rent only one apartment and the trullo suite or choose to unite the two apartments in the main villa and rent the suite. In any case this kind of property will attract tourists, especially in summer. The top-notch location makes it perfect for you, if you want to enjoy your life undisturbed without being far from services, and for tourists as well. They love this area and how easy and fast it is to reach some of the most beautiful towns in Apulia.
