This is a fantastic opportunità to purchase an impressive masseria with a sea view close to the beautiful town of Ostuni (at approx. 8 km distance).

The masseria dates back to 1800, with various upgrades made over the years. The most recent works include an upgrade to the electric and plumbing systems.

The main body of the masseria has five bedrooms, two on the lower level and three on the first floor, with direct access to the vast roof terrace. From this roof terrace, you can enjoy spectacular 360-degree views of the Adriatic Sea to the front, the gorgeous hills of Ostuni to the rear and the beautiful “White City” Ostuni to the right. Both floors have their kitchen, living rooms and bathrooms.

Next to the main body of the masseria, you will find the grand living/dining area with a magnificent star-vaulted ceiling, “pietra di Trani” stone floors and a huge bread oven. This area is currently used as a workshop and garage. It could easily open up and join the living space next door.

There are three new bathrooms, follone by seven outbuildings classed as stables and storage rooms. Above the stables is another roof terrace with two rooms that need complete renovation. This could become the perfect guest suite with a private balcony and sea view. On the other side of the court yard is a separate annex wholly renovated with an open plan kitchen and living room plus one bedroom and one bathroom.

Behind the masseria is a colourful orchard with abundant fruit trees, including orange, cherry, peach, pear and figs. An area of 4,000 m² has been classified as urban, allowing for the application of a permit for a swimming pool. The remaining 46,000 m² comprises a small vineyard and olive groves with olive trees ranging from centuries ago to the youngest, which were planted in the early 2000’s. In total there are approx. 293 ancient olive trees and 790 younger ones. The grounds offer many spaces to explore and enjoy lovely walks among the trees with views of the Ostuni hills. There is a second entrance at the rear of the property with a magical drive through the olive groves to the masseria.

The property has a well for the water and a modern private septic tank system. Electric boilers supplì hote water. There is air conditioning in the renovated parts plus a central heating system. The property is equipped with alarm security cameras and electric gates.

Here is your perfect Puglian hideaway. You will feel miles away from the hustle of everyday life, yet in only 5 minutes, you can reach Ostuni, the picturesque “Città Bianca”. Ostuni is a buzzy tourist town full of restaurants and bars. The charming towns of Locorotondo and Cisternino are within easy reach, both true gems with small cobbled streets and many fine restaurants and shops. Locorotondo is famous for its round historical old town and the music festival in August. The Adriatic Coast, with many sandy beaches and sleek beach clubs, is easily reached in just 10 minutes. The gorgeous coastal villages of Villanova and Torre Santa Sabina, full of seafront restaurants, are also reached in under 15 minutes. Brindisi International Airport is an easy drive of just 40 km.
