Description
City of factories, cabinetmakers and carvers, the importance of Maglie in past centuries is evident also thanks to the beauty of the historic buildings that belonged to ancient noble families, with courtyards, gardens and elegant reception rooms. This property certainly contains all these characteristics. The charm you breathe has remained unchanged over the centuries. Located in one of the streets in the center of the city, the family that still owns the building has its origins here in Maglie. Family of entrepreneurs who already in the 19th century began to make important journeys and then continued in the early 1900s, throughout Europe and also to India and America to organize ships destined for the Italian market. Entering through the door you immediately realize that you are in a very particular, ancient, well-designed environment. On the left there are rooms dedicated to laboratories and on the right a small apartment then, continuing the garage and a large well-exposed courtyard. Marble stairs with cast iron railings lead to the main floor and here a succession of reception rooms with vaulted ceilings and frescoes with delicate colors and motifs, until reaching the yellow living room and then the red living room due to the shades of the frescoes. Authentic and beautiful cement tiles, black checkerboard floors and, in other environments, red, balconies and terraces until you reach the solar pavement from where you can enjoy a view that reaches far away. The property certainly needs renovation work but, in general, the conditions are very good. Ideal for a private residence or for multiple private residences as well as for creating a splendid residence intended for hospitality, perhaps taking advantage of the advantages that the Puglia Region allocates to these initiatives.
