Carovigno, Apulia 72012

A VILLA OF DISTINCTION CONTRADA DESERTO Newly built in 2025, with heated swimming pool, set on 2.8 hectares of olive grove There is a precise point between Carovigno and Ostuni where the countryside stops being a backdrop and becomes the reason to stay. It is here that this newly built detached villa was completed in 2025: 395 sqm immersed in 27,750 sqm of land planted with olive trees, in the Alto Salento region. The property is rated A4 for energy efficiency, fully furnished and ready to use. The House Fourteen rooms comprising five bedrooms, four bathrooms, spacious living areas, a games room and a gym. The one-to-one ratio between bedrooms and bathrooms ensures complete independence for guests, an important advantage when accommodating several families at the same time. The property features a fully equipped kitchen, fireplace, terrace, two indoor parking spaces in the garage and six outdoor parking spaces. The ancillary building includes a 22 sqm garage and a 38 sqm storage room, both officially registered and fully authorised: suitable as a tool room, climate-controlled wine cellar or independent studio. The Outdoors A heated swimming pool and heated outdoor jacuzzi: the pool can be enjoyed from mid-March through the end of October, while the jacuzzi is also ideal for autumn evenings. The outdoor area includes a fully equipped summer kitchen, bar and bathroom with changing room serving the pool area. The estate is planted with more than 300 olive and fruit trees. Systems and Running Costs The property has an A4 energy rating, the highest classification provided for under Italian regulations, corresponding to a reference consumption of 11.23 kWh/sqm per year. A 10 kW photovoltaic system contributes to the property's energy efficiency. Estimated annual running costs are approximately 6,000; a comparable villa with a standard energy rating would incur several times this amount. The property also benefits from a private well with water purification and filtration system. Security and home automation systems include perimeter and volumetric alarms, remotely accessible video surveillance, and home automation for lighting, climate control, irrigation and access control. The Location Contrada Deserto lies in the countryside southwest of Carovigno, along the roads towards Ostuni, in an area historically devoted to olive cultivation and away from the tourist pressure of the coast. The sea is 12 minutes away; Ostuni's historic centre is 12 km away (15 minutes); Ceglie Messapica is 9 km away (12 minutes); Brindisi Airport is 32 km away (28 minutes); and the Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve is 26 km away (30 minutes). The area's planning and landscape-protection regulations make any future development in the surrounding area highly unlikely, ensuring that the property's views and privacy are protected over time. Carovigno retains a historic centre of Messapian origin, dominated by Dentice di Frasso Castle, an 11th-century Norman fortress whose courtyard hosted a Dolce Gabbana fashion show in July 2023. Ostuni, with its full range of services, restaurants, shops and international schools, is approximately ten minutes away.
