Trulli
Cisternino
Visitors to
Cisternino and
the Valle
d'Itria will
be familiar
with
the trulli
that are
scattered
throughout the
area, some
looking
resplendent
having been
completely
restored but
others nothing
more than a
ruin.
The renovated
trullo,
whether they
are now,
hotels,
residences,
guest houses
or holiday
homes have
been rebuilt
to a standard
their original
owners could
barely have
dreamed of
with new
kitchens,
bedrooms,
heating,
lighting etc
all of which
were missing
from what was
once a
peasants home
lacking in
everything
including a
window!
There are
plenty of
trulli still
on the market
at sensible
prices,
mostly with a
fair sized
piece of land
included which
attract
foreign buyers
keen to
purchase and
convert to
their very own
place in the
sun. With
their mortar
free
construction
and complete
lack of mains
services this
should be
undertaken
only by the
determined!
Partially or
fully restored
trulli can be
bought at
higher prices
depending on
the extent of
restoration,
number of
cones and size
of plot.
