Luxurious and elegant stately villa for sale located near the historic centre of San Vito dei Normanni, a short walk from Piazza Leonardo Leo and the Dentice di Frasso Castle. The property comprises a main house and an annexe dating back to the early 1900s with a large garden of approximately 2,700 square metres, completely fenced. From the main gate, with electric automation, through a driveway embellished with Art Nouveau columns, you enter the stately villa, which covers a total area of approximately 330 square metres and is characterised by spacious and bright living areas with high vaulted ceilings, well-preserved historic floors, wonderful frescoes and splendid inlaid doors and windows. An elevated terrace leads to the entrance hall of the villa, which comprises a living room, a study, a hallway, a dining room, a separate kitchen, a bathroom, a double bedroom and a twin bedroom. At the rear, with access from the dining room, there is a second Art Nouveau-style terrace. The annex, with its vaulted ceilings stripped back to their original state, is separate from the main villa. Originally used as a professional studio, it consists of four rooms with a private bathroom, covering a total area of approximately 100 square metres. The villa is located in the centre of a beautiful garden dominated by tall trees (pines and firs), ornamental plants and flowers, wonderful cycads, fruit trees and an orange grove. The size and location of the property, close to the historic centre of San Vito dei Normanni, make it ideal as an elegant boutique hotel or B&B, but also as a luxurious and exclusive private residence. Advantageous financing programmes are available in Puglia, up to 60% for approved projects. The property is in good structural condition, requiring only some modernisation work.
