Description

Just 300 meters from the historic center of Lecce, near the elegant Porta San Biagio, stands Palazzo Delfino, a prestigious historic building spread over four floors and a mezzanine, equipped with an elevator and in excellent condition. Once the headquarters of public administrative offices, today Palazzo Delfino presents itself as an ideal investment for those wishing to enhance a valuable property, either for residential purposes or with a tourist destination, also benefiting from the tax incentives provided by the MiniPia program. Architectural details and space distribution: - Ground floor: characterized by star-shaped vaults in Lecce stone, large windows, and a private outdoor space, perfect to transform into a garden. A first area, with direct street access, lends itself to becoming a convenient garage or commercial space. - First floor: the true jewel of the palace reached by Lecce stone stairs. Here we find original elements of great value: painted friezes on the walls, recovered period doors, early 20th-century floors, and splendid star-shaped vaults. The balcony, with a decorated cast iron railing, overlooks a quiet street just steps from the historic center. - Upper floors (mezzanine, third, and fourth floors): reachable via marble stairs or by elevator. - The last floor, the fourth, recently renovated, is a modern and welcoming environment, ready to be inhabited or rented out. It boasts large tile floors, ceilings with exposed wooden beams, and a panoramic balcony to enjoy an enchanting view of Lecce's rooftops. Why invest in Palazzo Delfino: - Strategic location: outside the pedestrian area, but a few minutes walk from the center, with easy access and parking. - Versatility of use: perfect for the creation of independent housing units, boutique hotels, charming B&Bs, or prestigious private residences. - Unique historical and architectural character, combined with modern comforts. - Access to tax incentives and contributions for redevelopment. Investing in Palazzo Delfino means becoming part of the history of Lecce, the capital of Apulian Baroque and a growing tourist and cultural interest destination, increasingly at the center of national and international investments in the prestigious real estate sector.

Location: Lecce, Apulia

Between baroque cathedrals, farmhouses, castles, towers on the pristine sea, Apulia is an ancient land, crossed by centuries of history and art that have left unmistakable marks. It is here that Lecce is located, in the deepest and most rural South, marked by slow rhythms, influenced by Magna Graecia and Byzantine rule, in the heart of Salento rich in enchanting villages and breathtaking landscapes. Lecce, the "queen of the baroque," is a captivating city, one of the most enchanting in Southern Italy. Walking through the alleys of the city of Lecce, everything is enveloped in a dazzling light thanks to the blue of the endless sky and the golden color of the Lecce Stone which, due to its malleability, has allowed the history of the Baroque to be written. Here, where art is everywhere, among churches and noble palaces that fascinate with unexpected scenographies, where the golden color of the stone soothes and leads to almost meditative paths, no one can leave Lecce without admiring Piazza Duomo at night. It must be done, period. You will understand why. Founded as Messapian in Roman times, it was called Lupiae. In medieval times, the city's fate was linked to the Norman dynasty, but it was during Spanish rule that Lecce inaugurated its period of greatest splendor. Immersed in the lace of light stone and baroque churches, the portals and the ancient elegance of the palaces, here where everything is harmonious, the Baroque reaches its apotheosis in the splendid Basilica of Santa Croce which, together with the Convent of the Celestines, represents one of the major architectural complexes. A city that tells stories, culture, traditions linked to ancient customs, and a simple and genuine cuisine, with typical dishes to fall in love with. Just 30 minutes from Brindisi airport and a few kilometers south of the Itria Valley, Lecce is located almost midway between the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea, reachable in a few minutes.
