PUGLIA - BARI - ALTAMURA - GRECIULLI DISTRICT In the heart of Puglia, a 17th century fortified farmhouse is offered for sale, carefully renovated with typical materials, located on the Murge plateau, on the border with Basilicata and bordered by the Via Peuceta of the Cammino Materano. Surrounded by vineyards, expanses of fields and centuries-old olive trees, the property is characterized by a timeless atmosphere capable of transporting you eight hundred years back, when these lands were crossed and inhabited by the Knights Templar and loved by emperors such as Frederick II of Swabia. The careful renovation has preserved traces, still visible, of the old structure with signs that reveal an ancient church, perimeter walls and some underground cavities. The property, currently used as a tourist-hotel facility, consists of a hotel on the ground floor with reception area, two restaurant rooms and kitchen, rooms on the first floor and services and storage on the second; two reception rooms, kitchen, bar area, various storage areas, services and ancillary rooms, rooms for conferences or to be used for other activities, a chapel, porticoes and equipped outdoor spaces. The entrance consists of a large circular room with a large fountain in the centre, a meeting point between the two large and splendid rooms: the Cupola Room, characterized by its oval shape, classic and refined style and the beautiful frescoes that adorn the walls and the dome located in the center of the room, and the Templari Room, characterized by its size, the brightness of the large windows, the soft colors and the square shape. All rooms have been renovated in perfect harmony with the style of the structure and to ensure maximum comfort. The property is suitable both for high-level commercial investment and for residential use as a luxurious private residence.
