Description
Symphonya Luxury Real Estate offers for sale a fabulous 18th-century villa whose earliest historical records date back to 1755. Immersed in the green Salento countryside, it hosted the social events of the nobility of the time. The villa represents one of the best examples of the levels reached by rural building in the Valle della Cupa between the 18th and 19th centuries. Situated along one of the main road axes leading from Lecce to one of the neighboring towns, the villa is the result of a radical reinterpretation of a pre-existing farmhouse. The property is spread over two floors. The lower floor, intended for warehouses and activities functional to the life of the villa, has gates and windows that illuminate and give access to the rooms, while circular windows lighten the mighty structure, diffusing light to the large rooms on the ground floor. Two flights of "pincer" stairs frame the entrance portal and connect to a central balcony. The interplay of window openings between the second floor and the summit cornice greatly streamlines the villa's structure. The property houses inside a chapel with an elegant and refined altar with clear 18th-century lines. The private garden still contains an ancient well for water extraction and a very elegant coffee house. The gardens were widely exploited by the nobility of the time, offering an oasis of tranquility and beauty. The area of the villa is 1500 square meters divided between the ground floor and the second floor and is surrounded by 7Ha of land. This property is a unique opportunity for those who wish to own a piece of history, with large interior and exterior spaces, perfect for the realization of an exclusive receptive structure.
