Set in its own grounds of six acres of ancient olive groves, this beautiful masseria villa combines privacy and a relaxing rural setting with proximity to all amenities. The closest towns, Carpignano and Martano, have shops, bars and restaurants and the property is also just 10 km from the beach. It is also an easy drive to the beautiful and lively port of Otranto as well as Lecce the "Florence of the south".
The recently completed stone-built masseria is a contemporary take on a classic traditional design and has a large amount of interior and exterior space, including a large roof terrace with views over the local countryside and surrounding olive groves, cloisters, an inner and outer courtyard, star vaulted ceilings and an open fireplace in the main living area as well as underfloor heating for the winter. The marble floors ensure it is beautifully cool in the hot summer months.
The bedrooms lead off the inner courtyard and comprise a large double bedroom with a four poster bed and en-suite bathroom, two good sized bedrooms, one with four poster and one with bunk beds, with shared bathroom and finally the master suite with en suite bathroom. The three bathrooms are modern and stylish and there is an additional W.C. off the internal courtyard.
The spacious living room and separate well equipped kitchen with utility room are off the outer courtyard and the house is also wheelchair accessible.
Outside there is a mosaic tiled infinity swimming pool for refreshing dips. As most of the time you will want to eat outdoors, there is a covered pergola with a supersized outdoor dining table that seats twelve. There is also a traditional wood-burning bread and pizza oven.
The masseria is perfect for a large family or group of friends, with plenty of space and a tranquil setting yet close to the sea, shops and restaurants. A perfect spot to enjoy the vibrant southern Italian lifestyle for a short while.
