The rest of the story

Over 14 years ago, while visiting his family in Terlizzi, Puglia, Paul literally stumbled upon the villa in the Italian countryside. It was in ruins. Here was this historic site along the ancient Via Appia Traiana without purpose or life. But there was something magical about the place, so while Paul’s kids ran all over the property in sheer joy, we knew this would be an amazing home some day.

As Paul says, “From the moment we set foot on this property, we felt the need to restore its soul.  In the process, it restored ours.”

Over the years, we have painstakingly restored this historic villa to the beautiful home it is now. But we didn’t want to stop there. With the villa is surrounded by ancient olive groves, vineyards, and fruit trees, we decided it was time to start sharing all of these wonders with everyone else.

That is how Villa Cappelli was born.
