Authentische Masseria Zur Renovierung Im Herzen Von Grecìa Salentina — Historischer Charme In Apulien

Located in the culturally rich and picturesque area of Grecìa Salentina, this authentic masseria offers a rare opportunity to own and restore a piece of Apulian heritage. Renowned for its Greek roots, unique traditions, and breathtaking landscapes, this part of Salento blends timeless beauty with deep historical significance.
Set on a vast plot of approximately 90,000 sqm, the estate includes a farmhouse of about 600 sqm and is officially listed in the Regional Register of Scattered Architectural Heritage, confirming its authenticity and cultural value as a true masseria.

Property Overview
The property comprises two main buildings:
• An ancient historic structure featuring traditional architecture and original elements.
• A more recent annex, built in the 1960s, offering additional space and flexibility for development.

The Historic Building
This portion of the masseria showcases original architectural details and consists of two primary rooms:
• First Room: Boasting a star-vaulted ceiling and an antique fireplace, this space evokes the authentic charm of Southern Italian rural life.
• Second Room: Characterized by a barrel-vaulted ceiling and original stone flooring, it also features a second antique fireplace, enhancing the traditional atmosphere.
From the first room, a stone staircase leads to the rooftop terrace, offering panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The second room, instead, provides access to a walled garden courtyard, bordered by classic dry-stone walls, typical of rural Salento architecture.
Within this courtyard are three large rooms with canopy ceilings, characteristic of local agricultural outbuildings. One of these features a striking natural stone wall, adding further charm and authenticity.

The 1960s Building
The more recent structure includes:
• A bright room with large windows on both sides and access to a private courtyard, enclosed by dry-stone walls.
• A second room with a flat vaulted ceiling, reflecting the austere yet functional style typical of rural buildings from that period.

Natural Landscape & Grounds
The estate is surrounded by fruit trees and land marked by “Li Cuti” – the region’s distinctive emerging stones, which lend the property an unmistakable character and natural identity.
Additional Benefits & Development Opportunities
• The seller is eligible to receive €11,500 in government funding for the removal and replanting of diseased olive trees.
• There is the possibility to add an adjoining plot of 3 hectares, complete with a 60 sqm cottage, ideal for having a second access road to the property. Asking Price: €70,000. Pictures on request.

Location Highlights
• Near Castrignano de’ Greci: Just a few hundred meters from the town center, offering proximity to essential services.
• Close to Lecce and Otranto: Only 25 km from Lecce and 18 km from Otranto, the masseria enjoys a strategic location combining rural peace with access to major cultural and tourist destinations.
