Gioia del Colle, Apulia 70023

Ref. B228 Located in the Gioia del Colle area, in a strategic position between the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea, we offer for sale a historic masseria of outstanding value, set within an unspoiled natural landscape. The property lies at the very heart of Puglia, approximately 35 minutes from Bari and 30 minutes from Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and international tourism hub, representing a true crossroads between cultural, rural, and experiential tourism. The estate extends over a total covered area of approximately 1,000 square meters, comprising 400 square meters of residential space, finely renovated in the 1990s and immediately habitable, and 600 square meters of agricultural buildings with exceptional potential for conversion into hospitality facilities, wellness areas, restaurants, production spaces, or event venues. A feature of absolute distinction is the presence of a deconsecrated 16th-century church, a genuine architectural gem that lends uniqueness to the property and represents a highly distinctive asset for high-end cultural and tourism projects. The masseria is surrounded by 110 hectares of land, including 60 hectares of woodland, partly designated for educational and experiential activities, 18 hectares of fully productive organic olive groves, fertilized with fava beans and planted with Coratina and Cima di Melfi cultivars, and 32 hectares of arable land, currently cultivated with coriander. Completing the estate is a cave of geological and speleological significance, a rare feature that substantially enhances the tourism appeal and cultural value of the entire property. The property allows for further expansions and development and is ideally suited both for high-quality agricultural use and for the creation of a high-end tourism and hospitality project, such as a charming masseria, an eco-tourism resort, or a structured cultural destination. An authentic, solid, and distinctive asset, designed for investors seeking an exclusive project capable of combining profitability, territorial identity, and growth within one of Europe's most dynamic tourism markets.
