Villa Cardo | Studio Andrew Trotter

Villa Cardo’s Concept:

Villa Cardo is a 3-bedroom house designed by Studio Andrew Trotter, who also designed Masseria Moroseta. Like the Masseria, Villa Cardo has been built with local materials and uses traditional building methods to ensure that the Pugliese vernacular style shines through, keeping the building light, airy and cool in the summer.

The house is within one hectare of land, filled with olive and almond trees. The sea is 7km away, with the amazing Torre Guaceto Natural Reserve being the closest beach. Carovigno is the closest town, and Ostuni is only 15 minutes drive. Villa Cardo is only 15 minutes from Brindisi airport and 1 hour from Bari Airport.
