Charming Masseria in Copertino, Puglia's Countryside

Details

The exposed stone immediately conveys the character of this masseria, built in the 1600s and still capable of offering an authentic presence, made of material, light, and generous spaces. The stone frames encasing the windows, the wooden beams on the roof, and the large glass openings create an intriguing balance between ancient imprint and more contemporary interventions. Inside, the dialogue continues naturally: raw stone walls, arched ceilings with exposed beams, large-format light floors, and a stone staircase accompanied by a large window that allows full and constant light to enter. The numbers confirm the property's substance: 719 square meters of commercial space distributed over two levels, with 10 rooms, 6 bedrooms, and 7 bathrooms, in a structure that lends itself to a spacious and well-articulated domestic life. Outside, the property spans 14,245 square meters, offering a rare dimension for those seeking space, privacy, and continuity between indoors and outdoors. The private garden and private pool significantly enhance the home's usability for much of the year, while the terrace adds another outdoor living space. The presence of 20 parking spaces makes managing the property particularly convenient, even for guests or larger gatherings. Completing the ensemble is a cellar, consistent with the identity of a masseria of this scale. The external architecture retains well-readable ancient details, lightened by the brightness of the light finishes and the sharp cut of the glass surfaces, which bring abundant natural light into the rooms and make the spaces more open and fluid. Days here find a different rhythm, made up of spaces that invite togetherness but also corners where one can carve out silence and personal time. The pool and private garden become the natural extension of the house, while the terrace offers additional space for outdoor moments, from leisurely breakfasts to shared evenings. The internal layout, with six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, allows for accommodating family and guests comfortably, making the property suitable both as an important private residence and, with due consideration, as a representative or hospitality address. Copertino frames a property that combines size, architectural identity, and a measured yet evident scenic presence. In the province of Lecce, within the context of Puglia, this masseria retains the charm of its historical origin and translates it into a spacious, bright, and concrete living space, designed for those seeking a place with character, privacy, and an authentic relationship with outdoor life.
