Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set across a vast rural estate outside Monopoli, this house offers a sense of seclusion in the Pugliese countryside. A heated outdoor pool is the natural gathering point on long summer afternoons, while the sunlit courtyard and fire pit come into their own once the day cools. With a chef service and in-villa massages available to arrange, the pace here is unapologetically slow. Monopoli's whitewashed old town and its Baroque lanes are a twenty-three-minute drive when you're ready to venture out.
