MARTANO - LECCE - SALENTO
TOWNHOUSE WITH HOSPITALITY BUSINESS
In the heart of the historic center of Martano, the capital of the area known as "Greća Salentina", a typical house with inside courtyard dating back to the early eighteenth century is now available for sale, completely renovated with care and attention to detail between 2013 and 2015.
The house extends over a surface area of about 180 sqm spread over two levels, ground floor and first floor.
The entrance to the property has beautiful high star vaults and it is followed by a lovely courtyard, both entirely in exposed Lecce stone.
On the ground floor there is a living room with a study area on the mezzanne floor, a large open space used kitchen/dining room, a double bedroom and one bathroom.
All the rooms overlook the external courtyard and feature wonderful high ceilings and star vaults with exposed stone.
Two ancient stone staircases, having inside a large storage room and laundry, lead to the upper floor, where a small balcony overlooking the courtyard gives access to the first of the three bedrooms.
A lovely and intimate terrace leads to the other two bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms.
Also wonderful is the view of the sky, which can be enjoyed in total relaxation from the outdoor seats, and the pleasant feeling of silence that envelops the neighborhood and the whole house.
This characteristic house, with a typical Salento flavour, is also located in a geographically strategic position because it is just a few minutes from the sea, on both sides of the Salento peninsula, and from the charm of the sophisticated baroque of Lecce and the other surrounding villages. In fact, it is currently successfully used as a B&B guest house.
It also features a whole series arrangements which where created during the restoration work in order to facilitate any different divisions of the internal spaces or to divide the property into two smaller units.
The house features high-quality finishes and it comes fully furnished, with the possibility of taking over the hospitality business as well.
It is just 15 km from the Adriatic Sea and its beautiful seaside resorts such as Torre dell'Orso, Torre Sant'Andrea and Otranto, 35 km from Gallipoli on the Ionian side, 24 km from Lecce and 75 km from Brindisi Airport.
