Gallipoli | Dimora Storica Con Torre D'avvistamento E Terrazze Sullo Jonio

A historic residence in the heart of the old town, where history meets design and the Ionian Sea becomes part of the home.

In the heart of Gallipoli’s historic center, just steps from the sea, we offer for sale an extraordinary 19th-century residence enhanced by a historic watchtower, four bedrooms with private bathrooms, and a complex system of panoramic terraces.

A property of rare charm, designed for those seeking authenticity, elegance, and a living experience deeply connected to the place.

The entrance introduces an atmosphere suspended in time, where the historic architecture has been skillfully preserved and reinterpreted through a refined renovation. Stone vaults, original cement tiles, arches, niches, and exposed walls interact with contemporary elements, carefully chosen details, and touches of color, giving the residence a sophisticated and personal character.

The Ionian Sea as a backdrop

It is on the terraces that the property reveals its full uniqueness.

Arranged on different levels and overlooking the rooftops of the ancient city to the blue of the Ionian Sea, they offer a sequence of outdoor spaces designed to enjoy every moment of the day in an authentically Salento style.

- A lounge area
- An elegant dining area protected by a gazebo
- An open-air kitchenette

These transform the outdoor spaces into a true private living room suspended between sky, stone, and sea.

Here, every day can start with an outdoor breakfast and end with a dinner under the stars. Above all, with the light of the wonderful Ionian sunsets, unmatched in intensity and beauty, when the sun slowly sets on the horizon and the old city lights up with golden tones.

Three shower cabins and the provision for a whirlpool tub complete this extraordinary outdoor space.

A sequence of spaces with a unique character

The residence develops over multiple levels, following the natural layout of the historic building.

- On the ground floor, a large entrance hall leads to the exclusive outdoor area, the first double bedroom with en suite bathroom, the laundry room with a small cellar, and a guest bathroom.

- The first floor is dedicated to socializing and hospitality: the kitchen, the living room with an elegant barrel vault, and the dining room with a fireplace define a living area with strong architectural character. On the same level, there are two additional bedrooms with en suite bathrooms and a walk-in closet.

- A charming internal terrace leads to the upper floor, where the fourth bedroom with a private bathroom opens, a prelude to access to the panoramic terraces.

A residence, a story

What gives the property an absolutely distinctive identity is the historic watchtower, a memory of Gallipoli’s past and an authentic iconic element of the residence.

It is this meeting of historic architecture, authentic materials, contemporary comforts, and extraordinary outdoor spaces that makes the property a rare presence among the residences in Gallipoli’s historic center.

Air conditioning and satellite TV system complete the amenities.

The privilege of living in the old town

This is not simply a house in Gallipoli’s historic center.

It is a residence with character, designed for those who wish to experience Salento through its most authentic elements: ancient stone, the light of the Ionian Sea, the scent of summer evenings, outdoor conviviality, and those extraordinary sunsets that, from these terraces, offer a different and hardly replicable show every evening.

A rare property, destined for those seeking a place with a soul, not just an address.
