"IL MANDORLO FIORITO" Farmhouse (1860), renovated in 2014<br>Via Galante, Ceglie Messapica (Br.) GPS coordinates: N 40°39'22.1" – E 17°30'14.3".<br>https://goo.gl/maps/9kF9Z<br>La The farmhouse “Il Mandorlo Fiorito” is located 800 meters from the historic center of Ceglie Messapica.<br> The farmhouse “Il Mandorlo Fiorito,” built of local stone, historically dates back to the 19th century but is likely older, although the only confirmed date is 1860. Over the centuries, the structure has been altered by successive owners, who made changes that were often arbitrary. In 2014, it was restored by the new owners after they found it in very poor condition. Today, the farmhouse is among the most beautiful in the Itria Valley and features expansive green spaces—including centuries-old olive trees, fruit trees, and a vegetable garden—that surround the entire property. Surrounding a central courtyard shaded by centuries-old acacia trees are the two apartments known as “Villa Fico” and “Villa Ulivo,” the large hall, the alcove converted into a cozy sitting area, and the ancient feeding troughs. A green area, featuring a barbecue space and a beautiful infinity pool, surrounds the residences, while the spacious parking lot extends even beyond the central area.<br> The Masseria is ideal for those who enjoy trips to the beach or hiking, and who wish to unwind in a simple, romantic, elegant, and comfortable setting, in a cool, hilly area (300 meters above sea level), far from the crowds on the beaches.
