Apulia, Bari, Locorotondo, Italy

Ref. V697 - In the heart of Locorotondo, one of Puglia’s most charming villages, this apartment offers a unique opportunity to create a home full of character. This property is ready for a makeover, spread over two levels and covering around 80 square meters. It boasts stunning views of the rolling hills of the Valle d'Itria, with sights reaching as far as Cisternino and Ostuni.

You’ll enter through a private staircase leading to the first floor. Here, a room with a cosy fireplace welcomes you, perfect for creating a warm and inviting living area. This space flows into a bright room with a window that perfectly frames the beautiful landscape of the Valle d'Itria. Two smaller rooms connect to this area, and with some renovation, they could easily be opened up to create a more spacious and functional layout.

Head upstairs, and you’ll find three more rooms. One has a balcony overlooking a peaceful pedestrian street and the charming courtyards of Locorotondo’s historic centre. Another larger room has a second balcony offering a panoramic view you won’t want to miss. The third room completes this floor.

From the rear balcony, you can access the rooftop terrace, which offers even more incredible views, including the dome of the Chiesa Madre and the lush valley stretching to Ostuni. The apartment needs some renovation, with plans already in place to create a modern living area on the first floor and a cosy sleeping area on the second floor, featuring two bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, and even the possibility of adding a Jacuzzi.

Locorotondo is famous for its enchanting historic centre, with narrow alleyways and whitewashed houses that make it a favourite among those looking for a special place in Puglia. The town offers a peaceful and authentic atmosphere, making it the perfect spot for a second home steeped in history and tradition. Its strategic location also makes it a great base for exploring nearby gems like Alberobello, Martina Franca, and Ostuni.
