Traditional trullo with large lamia
extension situated in a prime position
overlooking the surrounding countryside of
Contrada Cavallerizza. The contrada is
distinctive and sought after by property owners;
with a mixture of residential properties and
seasonal homes. Easily accessible and in a short
driving distance to the nearby historic town of
Cisternino; albeit the property is situated in
the Ostuni district.
The property is sited on a hectare and a half of
well maintained terraced land, mainly populated
by a variety of trees inclusive of fruit, oak and
olive; with an ornamental garden encircling the
property itself. A large stoned paved terrace to
the east and partially-covered tiled terrace to
the south.
The property is accessed by two entrances. The
main entrance opens up to the four trulli cones.
The first, and largest trullo may be used as a
dining area or summer lounge area with various
sized characteristic niches. From the main trullo
there are two smaller trulli which may be used as
single bedrooms , small studio or office; also
with particularly characteristic niches or may be
reconstructed to make one large room. A further
trullo/lamia with through access from the main
trullo leads to the new extension. This room is
currently home to a bespoke fitted and tiled
kitchen, built in traditional style. Throughout
the trulli except for one, there is the orginal
chianche stone flooring.
The lamia extension is a total contrast to the
trulli with large spacious rooms and high
ceilings. The lamia is interconnecting with the
trulli or may be accessed via the covered terrace
to the south of the property. An access lobby
leads to a modern spacious bathroom, large room
at ground level, ideal as a bedroom or lounge and
stone staircase leading to a large room which is
partially below ground level. An ideal master
bedroom with small adjacent room useful as
dressing room, for storage or equally large
enough to equip it as a shower room.
Services to the property include central heating
from a wood source, cistern and land line
telephone connection. All plumbing and electrics
have been upgraded in recent years.
The property is in need of works doing to the
trulli cones with some internal aesthetic
alterations.
