Ancient 16th Century Farm for Sale in Contrada San Ligorio Lecce, Lecce, Puglia, Italy

Your Salento Xvi Cent. Farm House Near Sea

“Masseria Lizza” is an authentic 16th italian country house/farm, it is at 4 km. from the baroque town of Lecce and 6 km from the Adriatic sea. The construction has an area of 850 M2 or more and is surrounded by 10.000 M2 of land with plenty secular olive trees and fruit trees, which make up a fascinating and unique atmosphere. The walls and ceilings are typical of the constructions of those times in the area of Salento: thick walls to prevent it from cold and heat and vaulted 5-metres-high ceilings which sometimes typically take the shape of a star.

The farm lies between the baroque, fascinating town of Lecce and the marvellous, charming salento coastline. The area is mainly plain land with olive trees and dry stone property-boundary walls, which, along with crickets singing in summer make up a really unique and magic scenario - altough the last buildings of Lecce are not so far away. Two well-maintained roads connect the "masseria" with Lecce and the sea: a really great - and one of the last - oppurtunity!
