In the enchanting Valle d'Itria stands a marvelous architectural gem dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries: a farmhouse crowned by Trulli, covering an area of 30,000 square meters.

This structure has been acquired by a Canadian couple - Alper and Cynthia - who chose to live their dreams in the heart of Valle d'Itria.

Leaving behind the cold of Ontario, they embraced the warmth of the climate, delicious food, and a lifestyle in harmony with nature.

Their project is ambitious: to transform this structure into a two-story house surrounded by a breathtaking swimming pool.

The concept of this project was designed to preserve the historical and artistic significance of the place, paying homage to its timeless beauty. 

By using natural stone, they have achieved a seamless integration with the surrounding environment while preserving the integrity of the original structure.

The combination of a contemporary style characterized by modern materials and elements, along with efficient use of the space, creates a balance between tradition and innovation, combining the Apulian cultural and architectural heritage with innovative concepts and contemporary ideas.
