In the heart of this romantic Salento town stands this magnificent mansion dating from the late 1800s. The elegant geometric shapes, original details and lush garden give this property the unique feeling of an urban oasis, a rare jewel. Upon entering the villa's lobby, one immediately senses the majesty of the mansion, high ceilings, marble staircases, the succession of spacious rooms, lounges, dining room, study and kitchen. From the central staircase, you enter an open hallway that flows around the five bedrooms, two living rooms and the four bathrooms. A refined herringbone parquet floor covers the entire first floor, tall windows with restored original fixtures, vaulted ceilings with ornamental details and a large pyramidal skylight represent some of the choices made by the owners during the renovations. The villa is surrounded by a well-kept garden with a swimming pool and ten-year old citrus grove of more than 2500sqm, from the garden there is access to a cellar that was part of the underground passages that ran under the town in the past; the cellar having been sanitized and provided with ventilation is ideal for creating a wine cellar.
