In the soulful heart of Salento, where sunlight dances on ancient stone and the air carries the scent of citrus, this captivating residence offers an experience far beyond a traditional home. Just minutes from the sea, it is a refined expression of timeless southern Italian elegance.

Arranged over two generous levels, the property opens on the ground floor with a grand entrance crowned by barrel vaults, setting an immediate tone of architectural significance. From here, you access expansive historic cellars adorned with iconic star vaults, a hallmark of Salento’s noble heritage, alongside an additional apartment. These spaces offer remarkable versatility and an atmosphere rich in authenticity.

A wide stone staircase leads to the first floor, where a central skylight bathes the home in natural light. The elegant living room is the heart of the residence: spacious, luminous, and defined by pavilion vaults, subtle Art Nouveau influences, and a striking Lecce stone fireplace that anchors the space with warmth and charm.

The intimate kitchen opens onto a balcony overlooking the garden, allowing Mediterranean aromas to drift indoors, while the bedrooms enjoy romantic views toward the convent’s bell tower.

Surrounding the home is a lush private garden, home to an ancient citrus grove of oranges, lemons, and mandarins. This fragrant outdoor sanctuary is framed by local stone details and a welcoming staircase that creates a truly enchanting arrival experience.

This is a residence where stone meets light, where history blends seamlessly with elegance, and where every space tells a story of place and tradition. Ideal as a distinguished private home, a refined retreat, or a meaningful lifestyle investment.
