Description

There are properties with unique features found nowhere else in the world, and each has a distinctive quality that no other property can possess. This historic residence, located in the castle quarter of Galatina, has the privilege of featuring four French balconies overlooking the façade of the mother church of Saints Peter and Paul.

No other property offers such a close view, and every moment of the day and night presents a different spectacle: young people meeting up, religious rites passing through the church’s grand portal, and events choosing this fascinating monument as their backdrop.

The property occupies the entire first and top floor and has two entrances from the ground floor, one of which is inside a shopping arcade. Each entrance leads to an apartment, and the two residences are internally connected by a door. Each apartment comprises an entrance hall, a bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen and a living room.

This is a historically valuable property dating from the early 19th century, with barrel-vaulted and star-vaulted ceilings. The unusually high ceilings create an intimate, welcoming atmosphere.

Recently and completely renovated, it is easy to heat thanks to a radiator system supplied by an LPG gas boiler. All rooms have hot/cold air-conditioning units, as well as high-quality, well-insulated wooden frames and fittings.

The property also includes a 10-square-metre terrace overlooking the private inner courtyard. It is equipped with bespoke kitchens and appliances. Connections to the electricity grid, mains water supply and sewerage system are present.

The front faces south-east, receiving direct natural light for most of the day.

The location is extremely convenient, at the beginning of the city’s restricted traffic zone and close to every type of public and private service. It is ideal for living in, renting out, or both.

Location: Centro Storico, Galatina

A gem nestled in the heart of Salento, a city rich in history, culture, and tradition. Located in the province of Lecce, this fascinating town is renowned for its architectural beauty, historic monuments, and lively atmosphere.

One of Galatina’s jewels is undoubtedly the Basilica of Saint Catherine of Alexandria, a national monument and a late Romanesque-Gothic building. The Basilica is famous for its extraordinary frescoes, created by artists from the Giotto and Sienese schools.

The narrow streets of the historic center invite visitors to enjoy pleasant walks among ancient churches, aristocratic palaces, and picturesque courtyards. Every corner tells a story, reflecting the deep bond with Salento traditions that permeate the air. Galatina is also known for its rich food and wine tradition. Its cuisine offers delicacies such as the famous pasticciotto, a typical local pastry, and delicious dishes made with local products.

During the summer, Galatina comes alive with festivals, food fairs, and cultural events celebrating the community’s roots and identity.

In short, Galatina enchants visitors with its authentic charm and is an unmissable stop for anyone wishing to discover the true spirit of southern Italy, also thanks to its privileged location: just 45 km from Brindisi Airport, 20 km from the city of Lecce, 18 km from Gallipoli, and 25 km from Otranto.
