A 300-Year-Old Stone Villa Restored by Acclaimed Studiotoff Architects
Its tricentenary stones creating rustic charm, this three-bedroom villa’s dramatic vaulted ceilings, classic stone and tile floors, arched openings and stately, manor house façade assure you’ll be as well as—or even better than—its welcoming inscription “Salve” insists.
A Welcoming Historical Puglian Villa Redesigned by Studiotoff
Cross the well-wishing threshold of this 300-year-old stone villa restored by the renowned design firm Studiotoff, and be immersed in classic Apulian architecture updated by elegantly textural modern furnishings and appliances. Each of the villa’s three bedrooms has a private bathroom. The kitchen was created for generous Italian-style gathering and al fresco dining, too, opening outdoors to a fixed entertainment terrace with a table, built-in grill station and stately patio. A sun-drenched pool surrounded by lounge beds extends beyond the neatly landscaped dining/entertainment zone, among ancient olive and fruit trees, with the Apulian countryside stretching beyond.
Around
Despite its secluded location at the end of a picturesque gravel road, this stately villa is only 20 minutes’ drive from the Mediterranean Sea and a quicker 10 minutes to the historic, UNESCO-classified “White City” of Ostuni. Italy’s Valle d’Itria offers memorable food, great wines and miles of beautiful landscapes both inland and along the Adriatic Sea. The villages of Martina Franca, Cisternino and Locorotondo are some of the region’s most well preserved. The charming little fishing harbor of Savelletri and the lovely old town of Ceglie Messpica, renowned for its excellent tables, are also nearby.
Take in the amazing Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve, a protected marine wilderness area with an abundance of bird life. And don’t miss the cliffside harbor town of Polignano a Mare, a gem of the Adriatic coast, or the Grotte di Castellana, an extensive karst cave system that is among Puglia’s top attractions. The village of Alberobello is famed for its conical trulli—former agricultural stores that have become a symbol of the region. Grottaglie is the destination for ceramic lovers. And nearby Ostuni, the jewel of the region set high above the olive groves, offers a vividly whitewashed historic heart pulsing with cafes, boutiques, and seasonal markets and a Gothic cathedral.
