Property description

This brand new countryside villa has been completed to the rustic stage ready for you to finish to your exact tastes.
The property comprises an open plan livingroom and kitchen with large fireplace and beautiful star vaulted ceiling. A corridor leads to the bathroom and two bedrooms. There are also two pergolas planned, one at either side of the house for outdoor dining in the shade.
The villa is surrounded by 9000 sq m of land brimming with fruit and olive trees.
The property has a new fosse imhoff sewage system, and pipework already in place for a gas heating system. Electricity is also connected.
There is the possibility to extend slightly and add a swimming pool.The beautiful Oria (or Uria in Latin) is the closest town to the villa.
In classical times Oria was known also as Hyria or Hyrium, one of the principal Messapian cities. It is also renowned for having one of the oldest Jewish communities in Europe.
According to Herodotus, the foundation of Oria occurred when a group of Cretan wrecked along the coast of Salento. The Cretans chose the highest hill to build the city because from there they could well control the surrounding territory. They gave this city the name Hyria.
Since 1500 Oria suffered many sieges.Due to the numerous destructions and reconstructions, the architecture has taken on a unique character that is close to that of the white Mediterranean cities.Oria is located on the highest hills in northern Salento giving it a dominant position on the surrounding plains; the highest hill is Colle del Vaglio (166 m), on whose top is built the castle.
The town is not so far from the route of the ancient Via Appia between Brindisi and Taranto; Oria is 35 km far from Taranto, 32 km from Brindisi and 45 km from Lecce.

Oria has a typical Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild winters.
The villa is also close to the other famous towns in this fantastic area of Italy: within 20 minutes or so you can reach the baroque town of Francavilla Fontana, Manduria (famous for its red wines), Grottaglie (famous for Beautiful pottery) and Ceglie Messapica ( for fine dining!)

The property has the advantage of being not too far from main areas of world interest in the middle of Apulia such as the mile long caves of Castellana; the archaeological excavations of the Roman Egnatia by the Adriatic coast line; the Trulli houses of Alberobello- an UNESCO world heritage site: the beautiful white town of Ostuni, located on top of a hill with fantastic Sea views; the wealthy baroque town of Martina Franca; the petite and charming Cisternino, the Zoo Safari Park of Fasano (lots of fun for children and adults alike); the caves of Polignano a Mare, well known also for its tasty ice cream; Grottaglie famous for its ceramics and old stone carvings; and last but not least the famous baroque city of Lecce which is called the Florence of the south. Lecce can be reached in 15-20 minutes and has countless medical churches and a great richness of architecture. In town there is also the famous Roman amfibi theatre which is used for music and drama performances in the open during the summer season. Lecce is a wonderful town for long walks, enjoying the fantastic atmosphere, bars, outside restaurants and, naturally, great shops.

SALENTO:
In Salento the coastline is fascinating and you can drive by car a few hours along the Adriatic cost line and passing many fine sea villages, like Otranto and Castro Marina. Continue to Santa Maria di Leuca and you are at the meeting of the two seas- the Adriatic and the Ionian.

Inland Salento there are a number of historical charming villages with ancient history. The advantage to stay in a village is to be able to socialize with Italian neighbors, to walk to the piazza cafe and buy a newspaper and a cup of coffee in the morning and having all amenities within reach day and night time. The townhouses often come with a garden and roof terrace. When you approach a simple door just of the street you will often be surprised to find that inside there is a little palace, a 50 sq m garden and with great views over the country side from the roof terrace.
In Sternatina and Martignano to the south of Lecce antique Greek is still spoken by the villagers.
Maglie is like a mini Lecce and with many fine buildings. Muro Leccese is smaller and also represent a small town/village with a fine architectural history. Cutrofiano popular for French holiday home ownership. Ruffano has many fine old buildings for sale, waiting to find new owners and to be restored. Surano has a small town center with very nice antique buildings for sale. Spongano again is a small village surrounded by olive grooves. Here you can see secluded great villas and country retreats owned by foreigners and families from North Italy who come to relax in rural Salento.

The east coast of Salento is rougher than the south west and for people who enjoy the sea and fishing. Castro is beautiful with its location on top of the cliff by the sea and many villas with direct access to the sea. Santa Cesarea Terme is a spa resort, very popular with a beautiful setting and bay.
The cost from Santa Maria di Leuca to Gallipoli has many fine sandy beaches. The villages are perhaps not the prettiest but room for the beach life, pizzerias, restaurants and disco music summer time.
Santa Catarina well known also for its many fine villas in the area, some antique.
The sea outside of Porto Cesareo further up the coast is probably the most beautiful and fantastic sunsets.

Continue along the Ionian side for miles and miles of blue flag beaches. Gallipoli is fascinating city built on a peninsula and a marvellous old town. Further north east you find Santa Catarina which is a sophisticated place and many celebrities have holiday homes here during the hectic August summer time. A bit further comes the super Porto Cesareo with many seaside restaurants and a lovely bay with fishing boats.

WHY BUY IN APULIA?
Apulia has until recently been called the hidden treasure of Italy, unknown to most tourists who come & stay in Rome, Florence, Venice and at the Italian Riviera. However, all this is rapidly changing because of massive investments in the infrastructure, such as the improved motorways, enlarged airports and the introduction of low cost airlines such as Ryanair and Easyjet. The property prices are low in Apulia and low means value for money at bargain prices for the international buyers. We see more and more foreign visitors coming to Apulia and in our opinion investments will show good growth in value because of the increased demand. Also from north Italians as Apulia has become the most popular holiday destination for Italians. But rest assured, no tourist villages will ever be built because in Apulia the coastline is protected and people are against modern developments which do not fit into this historical landscape. Therefore, with increased demand for a fixed and limited number of properties prices are bound to rise.

The WEATHER:
Being south, Apulia has warmer weather than Northern Italy and even in the"winter months" of December to February the average number of sun hours per day is 4 and in June-August 10-11 sun hours per day! This means you can enjoy a long season of nice weather in Apulia. When you plan to buy a holiday home in Apulia think of that you will spend a lot more time outside than in the inside compared to at home. Therefore you will need plenty of terrace space, pergolas etc at your Apulian property and also cooking facilities outside is very practical.

The water temperature in beginning of May is in average 19 degrees, up to 27 degrees in August/September and 19 degrees in November. This means you & family will spend time at the beach. Wherever you are in Apulia you can reach the beaches within 30 minutes!
