Description

A property with a strong character featuring elements of great originality. A private residence just steps away from Porta San Biagio, within the city walls. Spacious areas, a pleasant and well-landscaped garden connecting the two units, three terraces, and a covered outdoor area embraced by stone arches are some of the highlights that characterize this finely restored property, ensuring comfort and privacy even though it is located in the historic center of the city of Lecce. Two separate entrances, one to enter the large loft with a very high barrel vault, mezzanine with bedroom and bathroom, and the other to enter the garden and access the main property which is developed on the first floor with well-designed outdoor spaces and a 70 sqm terrace, living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and two bathrooms. The second floor is accessed via internal stairs within the property. From the highest point, where there is another 50 sqm terrace and an attic with a bathroom, the view is superb over the baroque city. Underfloor heating and cooling splits ensure pleasant environments all year round. The authorization to install a freight elevator to reach even the first floor and the possibility of creating a small pool are a plus. The decisive character of the spaces that combine historicity with modernity in a mix of industrial architecture and design remains the strong identity of this property.

Location: Lecce, Apulia

Among baroque cathedrals, farmhouses, castles, towers on the unspoiled sea, Puglia is an ancient land, traversed by centuries of history and art that have left unmistakable marks. Here lies Lecce, 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 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 infinite sky and the golden color of the Pietra Leccese which, due to its malleability, has allowed the history of 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, and that's it. You'll understand why. Founded by the Messapians in Roman times, it was called Lupiae. In medieval times, the city's fate was tied to the Norman dynasty, but it was during the Spanish rule that Lecce inaugurated its period of greatest splendor. Immersed in light stone lace and baroque churches, portals, and the ancient elegance of palaces, here where everything is harmonious, Baroque reaches its apotheosis in the splendid Basilica of Santa Croce which, together with the Celestini Convent, 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 halfway between the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea, reachable in a few minutes.
