Description
Immersed in the lush Ostuni countryside, just a few kilometers from Cisternino, this splendid property embodies the authentic elegance of the Apulian tradition, skillfully reinterpreted in a contemporary way. Situated in a dominant position, it offers an extraordinary panoramic view of the surrounding valley, a natural outlook that is captivating in every season.
The heart of the estate is the ancient complex of trulli and lamia, restored with respect and refinement, flanked by two delightful lamia outbuildings. The entrance opens along a driveway dotted with Mediterranean essences leading to the main building: here, the original chianche, centuries-old trulli, and natural materials create an atmosphere of intimate and authentic charm. The sleeping area consists of two double bedrooms: one with independent access and the other, located under two cones, illuminated by natural light and enriched by resin floors. A bathroom with a shower, nestled between two alcoves, completes this historic part.
Through a refined architectural passage, one accesses the lamia, where the kitchen with an island opens to the outside through a large arched glass window, harmoniously connecting the interior spaces to the landscape. The living room, enhanced by a fireplace, is the convivial hub of the house, while an internal courtyard reserved for the kitchen offers an ideal space for outdoor dining.
The lamia, once a stable, now houses two additional double bedrooms: the master bedroom, with a canopy bed and overlooking the pool, and a second room with rustic charm, featuring stone walls and a period fireplace. This area is completed by an elegant bathroom with a shower and tub, and a service room with independent entrance, also ideal as an additional bedroom.
Outside, the two outbuildings offer privacy and functionality: the first is a small independent apartment with bedroom, kitchenette, bathroom, and private patio; the second, similar in structure, can be transformed into a second autonomous unit.
The land of about 6,000 square meters hosts suggestive relaxation areas, including the saltwater pool with panoramic solarium and an ancient stone threshing floor, now used as a BBQ area, reachable by a romantic staircase. A special corner of the property is the ancient oven, flanked by two caves carved into the rock, once used for winemaking: spaces full of history, ideal for being transformed into a refined wellness area.
The property is equipped with underfloor heating, two Imhoff tanks, a cistern, and the possibility of connection to an artesian well. Security and comfort are guaranteed by grates, mosquito nets, and a setup for photovoltaic panels.
Perfect as a private residence or charming accommodation facility, this home represents a retreat of peace and beauty, in perfect balance between the charm of the past and contemporary comfort.
