Name: Laura
Location: Ostuni, Apulia Italy

Set amongst 2 acres of olive grove and fruit trees including pomegranate, fig, almond and pear, my house has a wonderfully bucolic setting. The construction combines the traditional vernacular Lamia style and Masseria styles unique to Apulia yet my restoration provides wonderful interior spaces which are open and airy with a minimal modernist feel.

Surrounded on front sides by ancient drystone walls, my house is a serenely peaceful and relaxing setting within which to unwind and recharge mental and physical batteries drained by the stresses of everyday life.

Beaches are close by on both the Adriatic and Ionian side of the heel and about 8 kilometers from Ostuni, the "White City".

You can find my house also in the last issue of the Italian magazine CASA D n° 43.

Thanks Laura!
