Masseria Profilo is an old rural house set within a large park, in the countryside of Monopoli, a landscape surrounded by centuries-old olive trees and defined by the typical dry white-stone walls. It consists of two distinct but adjacent units: the 18th century historic residence and an annex which was originally a stable, both restored through splendid renovation that highlights the typical details of Apulian buildings, such as the typical white stone. Masseria Profilo is surrounded by lush vegetation and by an expanse of olive and almond trees that line the path leading to the swimming pool. Its location is ideal for those who wish to explore the real Apulia, visiting the most characteristic places such as Alberobello, Polignano a Mare, Ostuni or the splendid historic town centre of Monopoli, with the castle of Charles V, lying on the crystal clear sea and its many churches . The closest beaches are the characteristic coves of Monopoli, an alternation of sandy and rocky beaches that frame the crystalline sea: it is worth taking a dip in the typical Cala di Porta Vecchia where, from the sea, you will be able to admire the walls of the historic centre and the bell tower of the Cathedral. PS: Located within the park, about 400 m from the Masseria, is the house of the owners who live there during some period in the year, and who will absolutely not interfere in the use of the park and swimming pool, which are for the exclusive use of guests. Furthermore, the Masseria has its own exclusive entrance gate.

Park:
Masseria Profilo is located in a large green park in the heart of the Monopoli countryside. The external areas of the Masseria are a triumph of colours: the typical paving with chianche, the vine-covered canopies and the stone barbecue are the protagonists in this picture enriched by multicoloured flowers and plants of Mediterranean scrub. The furnished outdoor dining area is just outside the kitchen French window. The 300 m lane that leads to the swimming pool represents an oasis of peace where you can enjoy all the scents of the wild plants while strolling under the shade of the trees. In the pool area, surrounded by trees and well-kept areas of lawn and flowers, is an outdoor shower hidden inside a dome created with climbing plants that fits perfectly into this vegetation-rich context. Past the entrance gate leading into the property is a parking area.Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.
