Details

View property details

Once owned by one of the most important noble families in Puglia, the Pisanelli Family, it was purchased by the current owners just a few years ago, who transformed it into a contemporary and luxurious holiday accommodation after a meticulous restoration.

Surrounded by 500 meters of land, orange, pear and palm trees, the 300 square metres home offers 5 double bedrooms en-suite and is spacious enough for up to 10 guests.

The property has been tastefully decorated carefully mixing the traditional Apulian style with furniture, objects and artifacts from Burma, where the owners have lived for a period of time. Doors and tables in recycled antique Burmese teak sit peacefully under the traditional vaulted ceilings in "tufo" and "pietra leccese", the local stone.

The property is divided into 4 units. The main body is occupied by the living and dining area, the master bedroom en-suite with own dressing room, guest toilet.

The spacious open plan dining and living area is the perfect place to entertain large groups. The fully equipped kitchen is the ideal convivial place to prepare meals to be enjoyed around the dining table for 12 or in the patio al-fresco.

A second independent unit located at the end of the courtyard contains a double bedroom, bathroom and own kitchenette.

A third independent units contains two interconnecting bedrooms each with own bathroom.

Lastly, at the right end side of the main entrance gate is a fifth double bedroom en-suite.

The bedrooms are all vary spacious, each decorated with an eclectic mix of Burmese and Apulian features, including night lamps by the Apulian Parisi brothers, which resemble those which can be admired at the world-famous light festival in Scorrano every year at the beginning of July.

For your comfort, the villa is equipped with cooling and heating system throughout.
