3 Bedroom House in Villanova, Ostuni
Villa delle Bougainvillée – Elegant Mediterranean Living by the Sea
An exclusive, light-filled villa with a beautiful garden just 250 meters from the sea, the Villa delle Bougainvillée embodies the refined Mediterranean lifestyle. Fully restored a few years ago, this villa combines elegant design with modern comfort and is suitable for year-round stays.
Set on a 600 m² private property in Lido Fontanelle, the villa features a private driveway leading into a shaded pergola surrounded by a lush Mediterranean garden with a tall palm tree, magnolia, ficus, lemon trees, hibiscus, and roses. A stone-paved walkway leads to the veranda, covered in vibrant bougainvillea that gave the villa its name. The spacious terrace is partly shaded and partly sun-drenched - perfect for relaxing outdoors. Garden furniture and an outdoor shower are available, and an external staircase leads to a rooftop terrace with a partial sea view.
Mediterranean Elegance & Comfort
The villa, built entirely on one level (approx. 110 m²), is crafted in white masonry. Its interior reflects the Mediterranean atmosphere already suggested by the garden: sea-green Vietri ceramic tiles throughout, white doors, and bright open spaces.
The large living room features a double built-in masonry sofa in Moorish-Mediterranean style with turquoise cushions and matching wall sconces.
The three bedrooms (one large, one medium, one small) provide a total of six beds.
Both bathrooms have windows, white tiles, modern shower cabins, elegant fixtures, and one includes a bidet. Each mirror is framed with hand-painted ceramic inlays (greche). A new washing machine is also provided.
The spacious kitchen is fully equipped with a large refrigerator, oven, ceramic cooktop, dishes, glassware, and all utensils. It features a handcrafted white cabinetry and a tiled work surface with a large dining table and chairs.
Thanks to air conditioning and heating (thermo-convectors), the villa is ideal for all seasons—cool in summer, cozy in winter.
The Surroundings
Marina di Ostuni has been awarded the Blue Flag for many years for its excellent water quality, and in recent years also received the “5 Vele” (five sails), the highest rating from the Italian environmental organization Legambiente.
Along this stretch of coastline, several seaside villages follow one another. The small ancient fishing port of Villanova, the heart of the area, offers cafés for breakfast, bakeries, pizzerias, and fish restaurants. Though Villanova remains unpretentious, in summer you’ll see yachts moored here—drawn by the crystal-clear waters that attract travelers from across Europe.
The coastline is wonderfully diverse: to the north, long sandy beaches (Pilone, Rosa Marina); further south, towards Lido Fontanelle and Costa Merlata, charming coves alternate with rocky stretches.
You’ll find bizarre rock formations, ancient lighthouses, and bays scented with Mediterranean macchia—a landscape of striking natural beauty. Nearby, in the direction of Brindisi, lies the Torre Guaceto Marine National Park, a protected coastal reserve ideal for nature lovers.
Just a few kilometers inland, the White City of Ostuni rises proudly to 300 meters above sea level, its whitewashed houses glowing in the sunlight like an oriental kasbah. Recognized as an official Città d’Arte (City of Art), Ostuni captivates with its maze-like streets, vibrant architecture, and flourishing bougainvillea cascading from every wall.
Throughout the countryside, dry-stone walls (muri a secco) divide olive groves and fields, their stones glowing in shades from sand and terracotta to soft grey and near black - a palette that perfectly mirrors the warmth and spirit of the Mediterranean.
