Dimora Storica Del XVIII Secolo

Just a few kilometres from Ostuni, in the heart of the Apulian countryside, this remarkable estate reflects the elegance of the former summer residences of the local aristocracy. Built in the 18th century for a wealthy Ostuni family, it comprises three independent dwellings: a historic residence full of character, a collection of traditional trulli and a villa designed in keeping with the region’s architectural heritage.

Offering approximately 400 sqm of living space and set within a two-hectare estate, this exceptional property combines architectural heritage, contemporary comfort and the Mediterranean art of living.

The main residence, known as ”Casa Blu”, forms the historic heart of the estate. Carefully restored, it has retained its original architectural features, including its antique flooring, exposed stonework and authentic volumes. Its striking azure-blue façade, reminiscent of the luminous skies of Puglia, is enhanced by an elegant stone balcony that lends the property an unmistakably romantic charm.

Arranged over two floors and offering approximately 250 sqm of living space, the residence features five bedrooms and five bathrooms, three of which are en suite. The reception areas include a dining room with fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious living room and a more intimate sitting room with a second fireplace. A spa area with Turkish bath completes the interior amenities. Upstairs, the stone balcony leads onto a generous terrace offering beautiful views across the surrounding valley.

Outside, extensive landscaped gardens create a true Mediterranean haven, dotted with olive trees, flowers and native plants. Two furnished patios provide inviting spaces for entertaining, with a bar area and comfortable lounge settings surrounding the private swimming pool, ideal for enjoying the long, warm summer days.

Close to the main residence, a collection of 19th-century trulli has been restored with great respect for its traditional architecture. Exposed stone vaults, niches and intimate spaces have all regained their original character. This independent dwelling comprises a living room, a fully equipped kitchen, two double bedrooms and two en-suite bathrooms. Its private garden and swimming pool enjoy lovely open views over the surrounding countryside.

The third dwelling is a villa built on the remains of an old Apulian lamia. More contemporary in style, it offers generous, light-filled interiors. It comprises a large fully equipped kitchen, two double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, and a living and dining area opening onto a spacious air-conditioned veranda. This bright space extends naturally towards the garden and its private swimming pool. A patio with barbecue and traditional stone wood-fired oven, together with a laundry room, completes the property.

The estate extends over approximately two hectares and also features a dedicated area for hosting private events. A small open-air arena, complemented by food preparation areas, barbecue facilities and sanitary amenities, provides a distinctive setting for entertaining family and friends or developing an event-related activity.

The property benefits from recently upgraded technical installations, including a gas-fired heating system complemented by solar thermal panels for hot water production. The boilers and radiators were replaced in 2025. A 10 kW photovoltaic system with battery storage also provides electricity generation and storage.

Currently operated as a holiday rental property and charming guesthouse, the estate offers a wealth of possibilities. It will appeal both to buyers wishing to continue its high-end hospitality activity and to families seeking an exceptional private residence.

The layout of the three independent dwellings allows the main house to serve as the principal residence, with the two additional properties providing independent accommodation for guests, ensuring privacy and comfort for everyone.

Located just 4 km from the historic centre of Ostuni and 13 km from the Adriatic beaches, the estate enjoys convenient access via an asphalted road and an ideal position from which to explore the region’s most renowned destinations.

A rare property where architectural heritage, the Mediterranean lifestyle and investment potential come together to create an estate of remarkable versatility.

Part of the furniture is included in the asking price. Subject to negotiation, the owners may also consider leaving the entire furnishings.
