Masseria Ai Cappuccini is a charming 17th-century estate nestled in the rolling hills of Martina Franca, just 3 km from the renowned town of Locorotondo. Set on approximately 3.5 hectares of land, the property offers absolute peace and privacy, while remaining easily accessible via a scenic country road.

The estate spans about 380 m² of living space, characterized by a traditional courtyard layout and impressive natural stone walls — a hallmark of Apulian rural architecture. A majestic entrance gate opens into the internal courtyard, the beating heart of the property.

The main residence is distributed over two floors. Additional features include an independent guest house with kitchen and bedroom, a historic wood-fired oven adjoining a covered loggia with elegant star-vaulted ceilings, and a freestanding trullo, currently used as a storage space. Part of the structure also preserves an original aia (threshing floor), once used for grain processing — a rare and authentic rustic detail. The outdoor areas are well organized and enclosed by traditional dry stone walls, enhancing the rural charm.

Modern comforts include a technical room with heating system, diesel central heating, and water cisterns – blending convenience with countryside authenticity. Surrounded by unspoiled nature, the atmosphere here feels timeless and serene.

An ideal retreat for those seeking spacious interiors, privacy, tranquility, and the timeless allure of historic Apulian living. Excellent connections: Brindisi airport is about 50 minutes away, and Bari airport approximately 75 minutes.

Martina Franca, together with Alberobello, Locorotondo, and Cisternino, forms the heart of the Itria Valley. This city, renowned for its beautiful Baroque old town, stands on a hill and overlooks the valley with its iconic trulli and expansive olive groves. In recent years, the Itria Valley and Apulia in general have become a prestigious destination thanks to their stunning landscapes, exceptional cuisine, and rich culture. Given the current real estate prices in the region and tax incentives in the construction sector, purchasing a villa with sea views in Gallipoli, an apartment in the historic center of Monopoli, a trullo in Alberobello, or a masseria in Ostuni is an especially appealing opportunity.
