Located halfway between Lecce and its harbors of Frigole and Torre Chianca, this historic 2000m² masseria sits on a 43-hectare plot of land with a semi-underground olive oil mill. The property represents a historic rural production complex nestled in the charming countryside of Lecce, dotted with small Mediterranean forests and settlements that evoke the region's rich agricultural past.
The main building of the masseria boasts a large area that was once used as a semi-underground oil mill, featuring barrel-shaped vaults, stone mills, and small cisterns carved into the rock for oil storage. Adjacent to the oil mill premises are numerous rooms that served as warehouses or bedrooms, also characterized by beautiful starry vaults and walls made of local tuff stone.
The complex is complemented by six additional rural buildings located in the courtyard in front of the main building, some of which were previously used as livestock sheds and now stand roofless due to the wear and tear of the old wooden roofs. The unique structure, combined with its location and the history embedded in the masseria, make it ideal for both luxurious living and agritourism purposes, thanks to the extensive land directly belonging to the property.
This 1800 construction offers one room and one bathroom in the city of Lecce, with closed parking available on the premises. The heating system is powered by electricity, and the property comes equipped with appliances. Boasting a piece of history and a vast opportunity for various uses, this masseria is a unique investment opportunity in the heart of picturesque Lecce.
