Recently and tastefully renovated and nestled in a centuries-old olive grove, TRULLI MARGHERITA RESIDENCE has retained the authentic charm of the past. A past woven with family stories and traditions that intertwine with the present, imbuing it with meaning. Margherita, after whom the residence is named, is not just any name, but a tribute from the owner to his beloved mother, to whom he dedicates all his efforts in restoring the property and promoting the region’s beauty through it.
Ideal for both vacation stays and events or unique evenings out, TRULLI MARGHERITA RESIDENCE offers everything you need to experience the true Salento without sacrificing the utmost comfort.
FEATURES OF THE PROPERTY
Peace and quiet provide the backdrop for this property, which perfectly blends tradition and modernity. The residence immediately reveals its authentic beauty, balancing natural materials—such as stone—with design elements—such as glass—which together create a perfect visual harmony.
At the entrance to the property is a living-dining room with a sofa bed and a dining table; this space was once an old feed room where fodder for the animals was stored. Adjacent to the living room is a convenient kitchenette and a hallway with built-in cabinets that leads to a wooden veranda overlooking the garden, featuring large folding glass doors.
The hallway also leads to the master bedroom, which is situated right inside the original trullo. The stone ceiling allows you to relive the charm of the past: lying on the bed, you feel as though you’re inside a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Outside, there is a large pool with a whirlpool, a sun deck, a bar area, a bathroom, a gazebo for shade, an oven, and a barbecue. The bar for outdoor parties is ideal for those planning to host social gatherings surrounded by greenery.
