Eine Elegante Historische Residenz Aus Dem 18. Jahrhundert Mit Swimmingpool In Patù, Salento

Just a few minutes from Santa Maria di Leuca and its coastline, Patù is one of those places you discover gradually, letting yourself be guided by the light-coloured stone of its buildings, its cosy courtyards and an intimate atmosphere, as if frozen in time. In the heart of Capo di Leuca, this small Salento village invites you to slow down, lose yourself in its streets and experience a more secluded side of Salento: a place to discover, an experience to savour and take home with you.

It is right here, almost hidden amongst the village’s architecture, that an 18th-century historic residence takes shape, where time has left its mark, preserved and enhanced by skilful conservation work. The star-vaulted ceilings, the carparo stone, the stone from Soleto, the Lecce stone and the cocciopesto floors restore to the rooms all the material richness of the Salento tradition.

The property reveals itself as a small village within a village, comprising four buildings housing six independent residential units. This is a particularly interesting layout, successfully combining the unified character of the residence with the privacy of the individual spaces, each with its own distinct size and features.

The first residence, measuring approximately 150 square metres, is the largest: it comprises a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms, opening onto a private garden of approximately 110 square metres with a patio, which serves as a natural extension of the house during the warmer months. The second unit, measuring approximately 110 square metres, comprises a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms – one of which is situated on a charming mezzanine – and two bathrooms; outside, a courtyard of approximately 80 square metres creates a cosy and secluded space.

More intimate, the third residence covers approximately 55 square metres, with a living room and kitchen, one bedroom and a bathroom, complemented by a private garden of approximately 110 square metres. The fourth unit, measuring approximately 70 square metres, comprises a living room, kitchen and bathroom and has its own garden of approximately 35 square metres.

Completing the property are two studio flats designed as small, independent retreats. The first, measuring approximately 40 square metres, features a double bed, a single bed, a bathroom and a kitchenette, as well as a private terrace of approximately 15 square metres. The second, measuring approximately 35 square metres, offers the same accommodation, with a double bed, a single bed, a bathroom and a kitchenette, but opens onto a larger private terrace of approximately 30 square metres. Different spaces, therefore, but linked by a single architectural identity and the opportunity to enjoy the property whilst maintaining one’s own private space.

Set amongst the buildings, the garden serves as the common thread running through the entire property. Palm trees, fruit trees, pergolas and shaded corners line the path leading to the heated communal swimming pool with hydromassage, the heart of outdoor living and a place dedicated to relaxation. Not far away, the barbecue area with outdoor kitchen invites you to imagine long dinner tables on summer evenings, whilst a charming underground cellar with barrel vaults leads to the oldest and most secret part of the property.

Even the elements that once governed daily life have been preserved and complemented by contemporary solutions designed for comfort and efficiency. The ancient cisterns for collecting rainwater, together with the artesian well, still bear witness today to this house’s deep connection with water and the land. These are complemented by a 9 kW photovoltaic system, solar thermal panels, heat pumps for heating and cooling, and a gas boiler, integrating technology and tradition without altering the historic character of the complex.

And so, living in this residence means stepping into a place made up of many small scenes: breakfast in your own garden, the silence of a stone courtyard, an afternoon by the pool, dinner under the pergola or an evening in the coolness of the ancient underground rooms. A residence that encapsulates centuries of history and tells the story of Salento through stone, light and landscape, transforming every stay into an unforgettable experience.
