Podere Gufo

Dating back to the middle ages, Gallura is rich in history and the main towns and villages are Olbia, Tempio Pausania, La Maddalena, Arzachena and Calangianus. The local population speaks Gallurese which is a dialect that is fundamentally connected with the southern dialects of the Corsican language. A fashionable tourist destination, the area is rich in fun, culture, history, beauty and climate.

Built from stones collected on the property, Podere Gufo is contemporary, bohemian chic with over 7000 square feet of living space. The property is an equestrian's dream. A sprawling ranch style estate near the ocean, there is a main villa and two secondary villas of equal beauty and charm. Stables, a riding ring, plenty of riding trails, a large private tennis court, an artificial pond and a lovely free form pool surrounded by wooden decking keep guests well entertained outdoors. Finally, there is a large communal outdoor area that is perfect for al fresco dining, cocktails or parties.

Indoors, in all three villas, contemporary acid washed cement floors and vaulted cabin style exposed beam ceilings come together in a conceptual eclectic dream. Beautiful furnishings, art and Persian carpets pull it all together to delight the senses. Podere Gufo is perfect for a large family gathering, corporate meeting or private party. The main villa features a private dining room, living room, kitchen and three double guest suites with en-suite bathrooms. There are two secondary villas. The "Stazzeto House" has one double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a private Jacuzzi for two; the "Barn House" has four bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. Both villas feature private dining rooms, living rooms and kitchens. Each of the secondary villas has a private patio with gardens. All of the houses are tastefully appointed with the finest furnishings and design. Finally, there is a carport suited to accomodate ten cars.
