Casa Caroseno by Boutique | Puglia Design Stay

Summary:

Casa Caroseno is a private, design-led villa with swimming pool in rural southern Italy, created for guests seeking privacy, simplicity, and a slower pace of life. Originally a 1950s family retreat, the home was redesigned by Opus Atelier and is set within a tranquil garden by Studio Paz, celebrating a refined farm-to-table lifestyle rooted in its surroundings.



The Space:

This villa exudes understated charm, with softly plastered walls, light filtered through arched porticos, and flowing draperies.



The home includes a king-sized bedroom plus a second sleeping area that's integrated into the living space. This curtained sleeping alcove can be arranged as a double bed or two single beds, offering adaptable sleeping arrangements for different configurations of guests. The living room features a sculptural modern fireplace.



The home also features two bathrooms and a fully equipped, generously sized kitchen.



Outdoors, expansive verandas open onto a private swimming pool, an outdoor kitchen, and a shaded entertaining area designed for long, relaxed meals.
