Ideal Land for Your Farm in Salento
Just a few kilometers from the Gallipoli coast, in the heart of Salento, our agency offers a large plot of land for sale with two buildings. One of these is for residential use while the second is for storage.
The property is located in the Municipality of Melissano and can be accessed from the provincial road 321 Casarano – Taviano as well as from the provincial road 262. The main entrance is on SP 321.
Entering from the latter, on the left, there is a habitable house of 60 sqm. Inside there is a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a lofted bedroom.
The land has a total area of over 5 hectares, used for various crops. About 1 hectare is dedicated to a vineyard of the Negroamaro, Malvasia Nera, and Chardonnay Syrah varieties, while an additional hectare and a half is used for arable land and vegetable cultivation. A portion of the land of about 1,500 sqm is dedicated to a citrus grove with over 100 trees (orange, lemon, mandarin, grapefruit) and an orchard (15 pear trees, 5 persimmons, 3 apricots, 8 plums, 4 pomegranates, 3 quinces, figs, prickly pears, 3 stone pine trees, 5 walnuts, 1 medlar, 2 almond trees, 5 jujubes, 1 local variety of medlar, 1 black mulberry, and 1 white mulberry, 3 black and white plums).
The remaining part of the property is dedicated to an olive grove, with a total of about 470 Leccino trees, of which 100 are productive and 23 recently planted and therefore still unproductive. The 380 olive trees affected by the Xylella bacterium will be uprooted, following a practice in place that involves replanting with trees resistant to the bacterium, of Leccino and/or Favolosa quality. There are also numerous Washingtonia palms and cycads.
Opportunities and Financing
The strategic location of the property, facing two provincial roads and straddling various municipalities (Casarano, Melissano, Taviano, Racale, Matino), makes it ideal for becoming a perfect farm, from production to direct on-site sales. Counting on reduced purchase taxes as well as numerous grants that facilitate agriculture, this type of business enjoys many advantages.
Specifically, in the case of a farm, the buyer can convert the existing house into a sales point for the agricultural products grown on their land and apply for permits to build a larger and more comfortable house. It is also possible, on this land, to obtain permits for the construction of greenhouses or an agrivoltaic park.
Water supply is possible through the “Ugento Li Foggi” Land Reclamation Consortium or, alternatively, by using an irrigation well.
