Historic Property for Sale in Salento with Underground Olive Mill, in the Heart of Morciano di Leuca.
In the picturesque historic center of Morciano di Leuca, directly overlooking Piazza San Giovanni – dedicated to the town’s Patron Saint – we offer for sale a charming ground-floor property with an adjoining portion of an ancient underground olive mill, a true testament to Salento’s cultural identity.
The building enjoys a corner position between Piazza San Giovanni and Vico San Giovanni, and features two main rooms with characteristic barrel vaults, as well as a third, smaller room that once served as a kitchen, still boasting a fascinating period fireplace. The total covered area on the ground floor is approximately 50 square meters.
Through a small external wooden door, one accesses the basement level, where a captivating section of the hypogeal olive mill is revealed. Entirely carved into the rock, it extends over about 120 square meters: a place full of history, charm, and untapped potential.
The property lends itself to various uses: a private residence with historic character, a shop for traditional local products, or a boutique hospitality project – such as a refined underground spa within the old mill.
Currently, the property is not yet connected to public utilities, but both streets are already served by the main networks (water, sewer, and natural gas).
In the past, this space was used as a medical office, but today it could easily become a small holiday home, a professional studio, or a quaint artisan workshop.
