About this property

Luxury stone house, 4 BDRs, 12x5m private pool, large patio, garden, bbq area

CIS CODE LE7503091000040498. Frangipani is a luxury and rather unique construction. It was built in 2015, designed by an architect in the style of Salento’s traditional "pajara houses".

The exterior resembles an old stone house, which respects the typical architecture and landscape of the area. Nevertheless, it was built in compliance with "A-class” energetic/insulation/ecological standards.

There are two constructions in the property: Frangipani Main Villa and The Depandance (a detached small house, which is located around 100 meters away from the main villa in the olive tree grove. The Dependance is usually not made available for rent by the owners).

The property is located in the countryside just 1 Kms away from Sannicola village (with small shops, supermarkets, petrol stations and restaurants/Pizzerie). It is also just minutes away from the touristic port and old town of Gallipoli and Salento’s most beautiful coastline and cultural attractions. These include the Italian baroque capital, Lecce, that is 27 Kms away and the old towns of Nardò and Galatina, where Santa Caterina is renown to be the second church in Italy by number of frescos and wall-paintings, all around 12 Kms away).

Frangipani is used by the owners as a holiday escape and is only occasionally rented to selected tenants: the owners categorically do not rent to "group of friends" but to referenced families only.

Interior:
a single floor and elegantly furnished stone villa with a combination of antiques and modern design furniture.

Villa Frangipani consists of a large living-room (>50 sqm) including an open kitchen, a dining area with an old wooden dining table with Kartell Plexiglas chairs, two white sofas, satellite TV, fireplace and large windows, one giving a picturesque view of the olive grove and the other leading to a large patio and the pool. The living room gives access to a nicely decorated toilette/washing room and a storage room (incl. washing machine, microwave and an extra fridge).

The living-room leads to the large front patio (a 90 sqm covered area) equipped with a furtrher additional external kitchen, a large sofa, wooden Adirondack chairs, and a large dining table for up to 14 people).

From the living room a glass door leads to a corridor, then to four double bedrooms (two of them with direct access to a further rear 20sqm covered patio) and two other bathrooms (one en-suite to the master bedroom the other serving the other three rooms).

All windows are double glazed and equipped with mosquito nets.

The villa is equipped with top quality appliances, including dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, fridge and freezers, toaster, kettle and air conditioning

Exterior/garden/pool:
The villa’s front patio leads to the garden and the beautiful sand color 12x5 mt private pool (including a 2x5 mt low-water beach to sun-tan). The pool has a diamond shaped floor (depth 120 to 270 cm) and is equipped with a diving-board on one side. It is surrounded by a natural white stone flooring with a generous space for long-chairs to sun-bath. The pool area was recently equipped with a beautiful stone made waterfall shower.

Frangipani is included in a old olive trees grove. The property is surrounded by a beautiful hand built stone-wall, made by local carpenters with an old technique and high standards to respect the area’s characteristic landscape.

The villa is also equipped with a large external cooking area with separate one-fire boost cooker, a large basin, a barbecue and also a professional round 120 cms diameter pizza oven. Use of the pizza oven is possible but instructions/guidance from the housekeeper is needed.

Location:
The property is located in an olive grove in the countryside between the villages of Galatone and Sannicola (actually closer to the latter). There you can find all shops one may need, a post offices, two banks and supermarkets for groceries.

Guests can very easily reach both sandy beaches and rocky coastline, North and South of Gallipoli within about 10 minutes driving.

For a drink, shopping, etc guests may want to drive to Gallipoli, Nardo', Galatone, Galatina (all within 10 minutes) or even Lecce (25 mins driving), a pearl for the lovers of the baroque architecture, where they will likely return many many times, to take advantage of a great nightlife, shopping, culture, food opportunities.

Other info:
Frangipani is looked after by Livio, a trusted housekeeper who lives in the proximities.

Livio is the 'master of the garden' and will provide guests with the fresh available garden vegetables from the villa's very own vegetable garden. He also takes care of general maintenance and cleans the pool once a week (included in the rates, in the periods when the pool is open). Livio’s wife, Carmela, may be able upon request to prepare unbelievably good typical local dishes for the guests upon request and reimbursement of the costs incurred (this has to be agreed and settled directly with her).

Traumhafte Villa in Apulien
Wunderschönes Haus mit gepflegter Umgebung und liebevollen Details und Beleuchtung. Am Tag war es sehr heiss, aber dank Schattenplätzen und Klimaanlage im Haus kein Problem. Sehr aufmerksame Betreuung und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Herzlichen Dank für Alles Stefano und Livio! Danke auch an Carmela für das feine Parmegiana di melanzane.

Eine Oase der Ruhe und Entspannung
Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen! Das Haus und der Umschwung mit Pool und Aussenküche sind top gepflegt und ermöglichen einen Individual-Urlaub der Spitzenklasse in absoluter Privatsphäre. Die Strände, Restaurants und das schöne Gallipoli sind schnell und einfach zu erreichen. Der Gastgeber und die zuständige Person vor Ort sind jederzeit erreichbar und zuverlässig. Wir empfehlen es mit Freude weiter!

Absolutely Fantastic!!!
Our whole experience at Villa Frangipani was wonderful and we would thoroughly recommend! The host, Stefano, is brilliant, he answered lots of our questions and gave great suggestions for beaches and restaurants. Livio, the caretaker, was also fantastic, bringing us fresh vegetables and sourcing pasta dough so that we could use the outdoor oven. The property is beautiful and incredibly peaceful. The villa is fully air conditioned which was a great relief! We all loved the pool, it is big enough to fit 7 people and 6 floaties easily (we brought the floaties from the UK which kept the kids occupied for hours!). The interior of the villa is also lovely and the kitchen is really well-stocked with all appliances you could need. As we were on a bit of a budget, we cooked most meals at the villa and it helped massively to have a large kitchen area. We had a truly brilliant holiday and would absolutely return again. Grazie mille to our hosts!!

Perfect site for our Family reunion/vacation
The photos are already promising but the place is even better than advertised! Easy to get to, close to the little town of Sannicola, not far to beaches, and plenty of good restaurants within a 15-20 minute driving range. Very responsive host, clearly deserving of super host status. Would stay there for a month or longer next time, absolutely perfect for peace and quiet in a wonderful summer vacation setting!

About the host

Hosted by Patrizia & Stefano

Host profile image
Patrizia and Stefano were 'adopted by Salento' and its wonderful people around 12 years ago. They have three grown up girls, two Weimaraner dogs and 3 cats. For most of the past thirty years the family has been living outside of Italy (Hong Kong, Singapore, London, Bucharest, Prague and currently in Kiev). About twelve years ago they spent a first holiday in Salento and, the following year started a long search to find the right property to buy. Three years were spent to find the right olive grove, in a good area, possibly with an old pajara or a trullo to restructure. Pajara Frangipani is their life project and it's the place where they dream to return the very minute after they leave ... as a promise, you will feel the same.

Why they chose this property

we believe it's a beautiful villa, an elegant property designed by an architect and furnished by an interior designer, built stone by stone using top quality materials.

Privacy: It's located in the best part of Salento - close to beautiful beaches north of Gallipoli but not too close to them, not to be be bothered by the crowds visiting this beautiful part of Italy. Do you want to go to the beach? feel free to enjoy. Otherwise, just laze in your private beautiful sand colour large pool and have a drink. Nobody will disturb you, apart from Livio who from time to time may make available to you fresh vegetables from the garden, and the housekeepers for cleaning duties.

Attractions & culture within reach: do you want to enjoy nightlife, culture, good food or elegant restaurants? take the car and drive a maximum of 25 mins to Gallipoli, Galatina, Nardo', Lecce..., and then be happy to return home and sleep in a place where the only noise that can disturb your sleep is the one of crickets and wild birds.

What makes this property unique

We believe it's just a fantastic compromise between elegance, relax, beautiful coastline & beaches, food & culture. Frangipani is right at the heart of Salento.

It's not a place to sleep for a cheap holiday escape and, with due respect, it's not definitively an "IKEA style holiday house". It's instead a private luxury home, built with love for the owners' pleasure. It is made available from time to time for rent to selected referenced tenants. Nevertheless, such a luxury place won't probably be much more expensive than most (and sometimes of a quite disputable quality) B&Bs in this increasingly popular vacation area.

This villa has the benefit of having a beautiful pool with sun beds and a low water sunbathing area, the peacefulness of being immersed in a beautiful quiet olive grove, the comfort of being able to go both to the beach or simply relax by the pool and, last but not least, a vegetable garden on your doorstep.
