Ceglie Messapica, Apulia 72013

Splendid Complex of Trulli to be Restored in Ceglie Messapica with architectural project by Jean Claude Lesuisse. A unique opportunity in the heart of the Valle d'Itria: an authentic stone village immersed in a centuries-old olive grove of 3.5 hectares. In the territory of Ceglie Messapica, renowned gastronomic capital of Apulia, we offer for sale a property with timeless charm. The structure consists of five traditional stone trulli, harmoniously arranged within the land. This arrangement offers total privacy and is perfectly suited to the realization of a prestigious dwelling or an exclusive charming hospitality business. The five trulli are authentic rural structures that preserve the ancient construction methods, with original chianche, thick dry-stone insulating walls, and internal niches that are waiting to be restored to their original splendor through a conservative restoration. The five trulli have a dispersed and exclusive layout, not grouped together but spaced apart, creating the evocative atmosphere of a small private village and offering the rare opportunity to design independent spaces, guest houses, or secluded suites from the main body. A renovation project has been developed for the five trulli, born from the magnificent vision of architect Jean Claude Lesuisse, a world-famous architect known for his organic architecture projects in Costa Smeralda. In his project, the space of the trulli becomes a habitable work of art, harmoniously connecting the two main trulli with a pool and a stone porch, as illustrated in his drawings that accompany the property photos. Moreover, in his project, characteristic stone walkways wind across the land linking the five buildings. The constructions are surrounded by 35,000 square meters of red soil typical of the Valle d'Itria, ensuring total acoustic and visual isolation, turning the property into a peaceful oasis far from mass tourism. On the land stand majestic olive trees with sculpted shapes and trunks twisted by time, real natural monuments that offer cool shade in summer and enable a small private production of biologically organic extra virgin olive oil. The Lesuisse studio, now led by Jean Claude's son, is available to realize the project.
