A written suggestion here, where I am now typing says: 'write here why did you choose this area'. I can ensure you that I have accurately chosen the place where in 2008 I bought the ruins of this dwelling: I chose it because it is located in a strategic tourist place:

- there are plenty of trulli farmhouse in this part of Apulia, many of them are located in areas closer to the sea but most of them are west of Oustuni hub, where all traffic must pass through to reach the sea at east. As a matter of fact, in July, August, passing through the town of Ostuni from west to east represents a great waste of time due to the traffic jam;

- my trullo is close to the Adriatic sea at east (highlights are the white sand beaches of the Torre Guaceto Marine Reserve) but also to the Ionio sea at west (sand beaches of Campo Marino, Torre Collimena and Punta Prosciutto);

- many are the possibilities of daily tours by car in the historic villages around, including Alberobello, Locorotondo, Cisternino, Martina Franca, Ostuni, Ceglie Messapica, Grottaglie...
mind that all singular towns I have quoted present all original characteristics that make them unique and each of them worths doing a visit ;

- even if my dwelling is immersed in a vast territory spotted only by small rural villages, the direct highway from Brindisi to Taranto permits anyone landing in Brindisi airport to hire a car and reach it in less than half hour. You have to add about one hour if the chosen landing airport is in Bari;

A further suggestion here says: 'write what makes your property unique'.
Also in this case I prefer to say why I did buy it and why I did design the restoration in this way:

- I designed the swimming pool as well as the private garden to have almost all the garden, pool and terraced areas away from prying eyes;

- the terrace on top of the building is maybe the tallest place within a 5-mile radius: the sight, especially by night with the full moon, is unique;

- I designed the swimming pool in the right position to receive the last sun beams at sunset;

- the external shower has hot water. I ensure it is a significant value;

- when I chose this trullo dwelling, I was struck by the quite good conditions of the structures, so the vaults are now still the original ones, as well as the drystone walls. I intentionally left them with exposed stonework attesting to the original skills of the ancient farmers. I think 80% of the other trulli in the area are somehow a modern reconstruction of the original ones;

- during my researches for buying an ancient trullo farmhouse I was struck by this trullo for a quite rare characteristic: the presence of a external yard: a sort of wide room surrounded by one-meter tall walls. Originally, in ancient times, it was used as shed for goats and it was covered by a timber frame, isolated with mud and crop roots but, of course, to reestablish it to a modern use, I built a wide wooden pergola to have a shady area below during all the hot summer days. I ensure that the wide table beneath the pergola is a great place;

- I just want to point out another intrinsic positive characteristic to the building: it has the widest main room (the one under the main vault) of all those existing in that rural district: in that part of Apulia you will hardly find another room of those dimensions in a trullo, even in larger trullo dwellings;

- I maintained a philologic approach during the restoration. I did use modern materials just in case of need.
