In the heart of beautiful Apulia, in Marina di Ginosa, in the province of Taranto, lies an exclusive masseria of over 450 square metres, immersed in the tranquillity and natural beauty of ancient Magna Graecia. Just 5 km from a coastline awarded no fewer than 27 Blue Flags and 30 km from Matera, a UNESCO heritage town, this property represents a perfect blend of authenticity, profitability and charm.
Surrounded by approximately 10 hectares of flat land facing south-east, the estate is home to a lush orange grove of seedless clementines, an olive grove for the production of extra virgin olive oil, and a 4-hectare espalier vineyard, capable of producing up to 20,000 bottles per year.
The well-tended and productive agricultural landscape frames the main masseria, a recently carefully restored historic building that retains all the original architectural details: old terracotta floors, high tuff stone cross vaults and majestic stone fireplaces.
The masseria currently hosts a thriving agritourism business with a regular licence and multiple income streams. Inside are six independent flats, tastefully furnished in the style of old art, offering a total of 22 beds. The licence allows expansion up to 45 beds. Each flat has its own bathroom and kitchen, with solid wood furniture and complete accessories, all included in the sale.
Next to the main building, a charming former ENEL tower has been converted into a charming two-level flat, also furnished in a manner consistent with the rest of the property and complete with kitchen and bathroom.
The estate also includes a 220 square metre warehouse, completely restored and equipped with a photovoltaic system, currently used as a shed but easily converted for other uses. There is also an independent room of about 70 square metres with two large rooms with tuff vaults and two bathrooms, now used to support the agritourism activity, but also perfect for hosting events, tastings or a wellness area.
The property is equipped with every technical and plant engineering comfort. It has internet connection, an anti-theft system, a high-flow artesian well and, above all, a state-of-the-art energy system with two photovoltaic systems - 15 and 33 kW - connected to an innovative energy storage system and a recharging station for electric vehicles. This technology guarantees the estate almost total energy autonomy.
The farm is fully equipped and operational: the tractor, the machinery for managing the fields, the equipment for vinification and bottling, and all the tools necessary for running the accommodation business are transferred with the property. Those who wish to continue the agrotourism activity will benefit from the transfer of the licence, the website, the promotional channels and, on request, also from a period of accompaniment for a smooth transition in management.
To complete the offer, with separate negotiation, there is also a valuable historic wine cellar dating back to 1877, located in the municipality of Laterza, about 20 km away. Excavated entirely in the tuffaceous rock, it extends 45 metres underground and is still used to store wine.
Immediately operational and perfectly maintained, this property represents an extraordinary opportunity both for those who intend to continue their business activity and for those who dream of a prestigious private residence in a natural, authentic and historically rich setting. In the surrounding area one can visit places of great cultural and scenic interest such as the Sassi of Matera, the Temple of Hera and the archaeological museum of Metaponto, the Pollino National Park, the ravines of Ginosa and Laterza, as well as towns famous for art and craftsmanship such as Martina Franca, Grottaglie and Alberobello.
