In the heart of southern Salento, between the beautiful coastline of Torre Vado and the charming inland area of Morciano di Leuca, Salento Agency offers for sale a newly built villa surrounded by the peace and scents of the typical Salento countryside. The property stands on a large plot of over 11,000 square meters, a natural setting that guarantees privacy, tranquility, and the opportunity to fully enjoy the Mediterranean landscape. The architectural project has been designed in full respect of the local building tradition, with the aim of enhancing the shapes and materials typical of Salento architecture while reinterpreting them in a contemporary way.
The villa is entirely developed on the ground floor and provides a total covered surface of approximately 153 square meters. From the earliest design stages, great attention has been given to the layout of the rooms and the quality of the living spaces, ensuring comfort and a harmonious connection between indoor and outdoor areas. Access to the property is directly from a municipal road, from which a wide driveway leads to the villa through the surrounding land, characterized by typical Mediterranean vegetation.
The main façade of the villa is enriched by a large portico of about 55 square meters, enhanced by elegant star-shaped vaulted ceilings, one of the most distinctive elements of traditional Salento architecture. This covered outdoor space represents an ideal area to relax and enjoy the summer breeze while taking in the view of the surrounding countryside. Crossing the entrance threshold, you are welcomed into a bright and inviting living room featuring two beautiful star-vaulted ceilings that give the space a unique character and charm. Opposite the living room there is a spacious and functional kitchen designed as a convivial area of the home.
The kitchen opens directly onto a second portico located at the rear of the villa, which is also built with traditional star-vaulted ceilings. This outdoor space creates a natural continuity with the garden and represents the perfect setting for outdoor lunches and dinners during the warm months. The sleeping area is located on the right side of the villa and includes two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a practical storage room. The rooms have been designed to provide comfort, privacy, and pleasant natural light throughout the day.
On the left side of the living room there are additional service areas including a storage room, a garage, and another bathroom. These spaces offer great flexibility in terms of design, as the future owner may decide to keep their current purpose or transform them into additional bedrooms or living areas according to personal needs. This feature makes the villa particularly versatile, suitable both as a primary residence and as an elegant holiday home.
From a construction perspective, the villa has been designed using modern building techniques and high-quality materials, with particular attention given to the use of traditional tuff stone blocks, which are typical of Salento’s building heritage. This natural material not only provides excellent thermal performance but also gives the villa an elegant and bright appearance that blends perfectly with the surrounding landscape.
The property is offered for sale with the structural shell completed, including the preparation for plumbing and electrical systems as well as the fencing of the entire land. However, for buyers who wish, the villa can also be purchased fully completed with a turnkey solution, allowing the customization of finishes, systems, and technological features according to personal preferences. Various options can be evaluated for heating and cooling systems, such as hot and cold fan coil units or underfloor heating and cooling. Additional features such as a video surveillance system, controlled mechanical ventilation, solar panels, and photovoltaic systems can also be installed, creating a modern, efficient, and sustainable residence.
The villa will also be equipped with a sub-irrigation system and a cistern for the storage of potable water. Upon request, it will also be possible to obtain authorization for the construction of a residential water well. The approved project also includes the possibility of building a rectangular swimming pool measuring 10 by 4 meters, as well as a shaded area designed for parking vehicles.
The location of the property represents another significant advantage. The seaside resort of Torre Vado, located just a few minutes away, is an ideal destination for those who wish to enjoy relaxing holidays while still having all essential services close at hand. Its small tourist harbor allows visitors to rent boats and explore the numerous sea caves that characterize both the Ionian and Adriatic coasts of Salento. The clear, crystal-blue waters make this stretch of coastline particularly popular among those who enjoy swimming and boat excursions.
Morciano di Leuca is also strategically located, allowing easy access to some of the most important destinations in the region. The city of Lecce, often referred to as the “Florence of the South” thanks to its extraordinary Baroque architectural heritage, is about 77 kilometers away, while Brindisi International Airport is located approximately 125 kilometers from the property, making the area easily accessible even for international travelers.
