2 Bed Country Property for sale
San Vito dei Normanni, Brindisi, Apulia, Italy
Full Description
Tonnes of potential to realise a stunning two house and pool property for anyone with an apetite for renovation! This property is set in over 20,000 sqm of olive groves full of mature trees and rich agricultural land. The two houses are set approximately 150 metres apart, each with its own a private entrance drive for direct access from the road. The main house is built around a lamia (traditional Pugliese barrel vaulted room) dating back to the 900s, the front door opens directly into this lovely characterful room, built in stone with two spacious alcoves, open fireplace and antique hand painted ceramic floor tiles. From here a couple of steps lead up to the newer (flat roofed) extension which contains another entrance room, with a door to the rear patio, to the right the kitchen and bathroom and to the left the large double bedroom. At the front of the house is a traditional wood fired oven, the original summer kitchen, set into an alcove and a large open roofed cisterna that collects rain water. There is another closed cisterna so this one could be used, removed or even developed into a part of the house or walled garden. At the back of the house another patio area offering more views accross the land. This first house has both electricity connected and plumbing and as such is habitable but will greatly benefit from modernisation and updating. The second house is currently used as storage made up of three spacious rooms, the central one has an open fireplace. There is a third cisterna at the side and paved patio at the front. The two houses currently have a combined footprint of 120sqm, the size of land allows a further 210sqm to be built as extensions to either or between both properties. Planning permission for a 40sqm swimming pool is permitted here.
The propert is 7km from San Vito dei Normanni, 20km from Ostuni, 16km from Specchiola beach and 39km from Brindisi airport.
