Unique historic house for sale in Oria, Puglia | roof terraces & 300 BC tomb

A renovated historic house for sale in the old town of Oria, in Puglia, southern Italy. In this video, we walk through 175 sqm over several levels, from a vaulted ground floor up to open terraces on the roof, in two independent units. What makes this one hard to forget sits under the ground floor. During the renovation, beneath the old stone paving, a semi-chamber tomb from 300 BC came to light, with the intact grave goods of a young woman of noble birth and her name still painted along the frame. Today you look down on it through a glass floor and live above 2,300 years of Messapian history. Upstairs, an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area opens onto an 18th-century stone balcony and a level terrace with its own street entrance. Two internal staircases lead to a second bedroom with en-suite and up to the roof, where you find a plunge pool with shower, a solarium, an outdoor kitchen and a table facing the old town and the polychrome dome of Oria Cathedral. The house is sold freehold and fully furnished, connected to all utilities and with fibre-optic internet. A separate 25 sqm annexe with its own bathroom, served by air conditioning, works for guests or as a short-let. Oria is about 30 minutes from Brindisi airport and from Ostuni, and 25 minutes from the beaches of the Ionian Sea. It is also among the southern Italian towns where foreign pensioners who move their residence here can apply for Italy's 7% flat tax on foreign income. Asking price: 395,000 EUR. Property ref.
