About this property
Vacation House LAMIA MATERA 11 in the heart of the Sassi of Matera
In an excellent position, at the entrance of the Sassi districts and 500 meters from the central square, Lamia Matera 11 enjoys a very suggestive view, overlooking the deep furrow of the Matera ravine.
The original building, called lamione or lamia, with its characteristic barrel vault, has been recovered according to the lines of contemporary design to give life to refined, surprising and relaxing environments.
The house is spread over three different levels, with the bedrooms located on the terminal part. On the ground floor the large living room with kitchenette is embellished with a golden staircase that winds around the two-burner fireplace. On this level there is one of the bedrooms, with an elegant bathroom, overlooking the murgia. On the lower floor, entirely carved into the rock, a welcoming and spacious room, also with a breathtaking view. Another double bedroom, with bathroom, is located on the upper level, under the original tuff vault.
The play of windows, the large windows open enchanting views of the surrounding landscape and allow you to feel immersed in the surrounding nature, while still being in the heart of the ancient districts. From here you can move comfortably on foot to explore the beauty of the millennial city.
