Historischer Palast Aus Dem 20. Jahrhundert Zum Verkauf In Aradeo (Le)

Aradeo is a small town bordering Galatina, the famous birthplace of the delicious pasticciotto leccese and where you can see the stone where St. Peter is said to have sat during his stopover on his way to Rome.
Aradeo has become famous in recent years thanks to the popularity of Italian singer-songwriter Emma Marrone who grew up in this charming town.
Here we offer for sale a magnificent period residence dating back to the first half of the 20th century, surrounded by a beautiful garden of 4200sqm.

This delightful residence is ideal for those who want to invest in luxury tourist rental or for those who want to live downtown without having to give up their corner of relaxation surrounded by nature. In fact, most passersby walking down ”Gentleman’s Street” stop to admire the greenery of the so-called ”forest” and the facade of this ancient mansion that seems to be inhabited by fairies and goblins. Regarding the curious name of the street, it must be said that in the last century the street was named ”Via RE Gentiluomo” in honor of King Umberto II, a kind and elegant man. After the fall of the Monarchy it was renamed ”Gentleman’s Street.”

The mansion boasts a double parallel entrance: a charming avenue with tall monumental pine, fruit and century-old trees and a more majestic one formed by four magnificent columns expertly crafted by ancient Lecce stone artisans and decorated with friezes of acanthus leaves and geometric designs. From here the palace is accessed through a long, wide avenue that shows a façade of horseshoe arches supported by arabesque-style columns and capitals that hark back to images of the Orient of the Arabian Nights.
The building is of particular architectural merit with a facade rich in cornices, workmanship and details carved in Lecce stone that the sun makes bright and golden. The house features a large original iron gazebo surrounded by a large space until recently covered with green lawn that saw the owners play with their children along with their little friends and on which pleasant convivial gatherings were held with friends and relatives. The place has also lent itself as a setting for souvenir photos of weddings and various anniversaries.

This delightful 1900s palace for sale in Aradeo boasts over 380 square meters and is developed on the mezzanine floor by an uncovered veranda of about 16 square meters in total that allows entry into the noble hall with original floor where time seems to have magically stopped. There are, in addition, a dining room where you can enjoy excellent dishes together with your loved ones, a kitchen, four bedrooms, a study, five bathrooms, a room with a library where you can toast with your welcome guests, a storage room and a back veranda where you can admire and contemplate the reddish sunset sky with your friends.
Through an internal staircase you can reach another room and then the solar pavement surrounded by ancient crenellated borders and wide well 240 square meters that currently houses the 3 KW photovoltaic panel system.

The property is, also, equipped with storage shed on the ground floor of about 96 square meters with the roof consisting of original tiles and a ceiling of reeds. Inside there is a large wood-burning oven for baking bread and other baked goods, a fireplace -kitchen of yesteryear- and a small oven for making jams or sauces. The area in which it stands is served by all primary and secondary urbanization works.
Finally, the whole property as a whole is the ideal place where it is still possible to appreciate the serenity of the countryside, nature made up of lots of greenery and the chirping of the birds that come through the seasons and moments of precious healthy silence. The villa is also equipped with a perimeter alarm system.

Aradeo is only 20 min drive from the very famous Gallipoli, 40 min from the capital of Lecce and 60 km from S. Maria di Leuca - Finibus terrae, the most extreme point of the Italian peninsula where the Ionian and Adriatic seas meet and is to say the least, spectacular.
