Just a few minutes from the crystal-clear waters of Salento’s Ionian coastline, in a private yet easily accessible location, we are pleased to offer for sale a villa currently under construction, situated in the municipality of Salve along Via Schiafazzi, approximately 5.5 kilometres from the stunning beaches of Pescoluse.
The property has been conceived to combine the timeless charm of traditional Salento architecture with the comfort and functionality of a modern residence, offering future owners the opportunity to complete and personalise the interiors according to their own preferences and lifestyle requirements.
The villa stands on a private plot of approximately 4,000 square metres, providing ample space, privacy, and tranquillity. The surrounding land offers excellent potential for landscaping and can be transformed into an elegant Mediterranean garden featuring relaxation areas, outdoor entertaining spaces, and, subject to the necessary approvals, a private swimming pool that would further enhance the exclusivity of the property.
The residence is arranged over two independent yet fully integrated levels, creating a versatile layout suitable for a variety of residential or hospitality purposes.
The raised ground floor welcomes guests through a spacious masonry portico, an architectural feature that naturally extends the living space outdoors and provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Internally, the floor comprises a kitchen, three bedrooms, and a bathroom.
The interiors are enriched by some of the most distinctive architectural elements of local tradition. Elegant star-vaulted ceilings and a characteristic groin-vaulted ceiling add personality and authenticity to the spaces, reflecting the enduring appeal of traditional Salento homes while creating a warm and refined atmosphere throughout the residence.
The lower-ground floor, accessible via a comfortable external staircase, benefits from direct natural light and offers exceptional flexibility. It currently consists of a large main living area together with two additional rooms, each served by its own bathroom. This configuration lends itself to a variety of uses, including guest accommodation, a wellness area, hobby rooms, a professional studio, or additional bedrooms dedicated to the holiday rental market.
From a technical perspective, the construction has already reached an advanced stage of completion. Internal and external plasterwork has been completed, marble window sills have been installed, and the main systems have already been prepared, including electrical, plumbing, and air-conditioning installations. This allows future owners to complete the final phase of the project within a relatively short timeframe while maintaining complete freedom in the selection of finishes and decorative details.
The property is offered for sale in its current condition, although purchasers may also agree directly with the owner on the completion of the project. This alternative provides the advantage of acquiring a fully finished, move-in-ready residence tailored to the buyer’s specific preferences regarding materials, finishes, fixtures, and construction details. The final purchase price will be determined according to the scope and specifications of the agreed works.
As is typical for independent homes located within the rural areas of Salento, the property will require the installation of a water storage cistern, which may be supplied either by a private well or by water delivery services, as well as a sub-irrigation system for wastewater treatment in compliance with local regulations. Connection to the electricity network is readily available and can be completed with ease.
This property represents an excellent opportunity both for those seeking a private residence immersed in nature and for investors looking to develop a high-quality hospitality property. Demand for independent villas with generous outdoor spaces and proximity to the sea continues to grow, making this an attractive investment in one of Southern Italy’s most desirable destinations.
Pescoluse, renowned for its long stretches of golden sand and its remarkably clear turquoise waters, is widely regarded as one of Salento’s most beautiful seaside resorts. Often referred to as the “Maldives of Salento,” it attracts visitors from across Italy and abroad thanks to its exceptional coastline and relaxed atmosphere. Nearby Torre Pali offers the charm of a traditional fishing village, complemented by restaurants, local services, and a pleasant seafront promenade overlooking the Ionian Sea.
The town of Salve, with its historic centre, architectural heritage, local traditions, and enviable position between countryside and coastline, is one of the most attractive destinations within the Capo di Leuca region. Its enduring appeal continues to attract both visitors and property investors seeking an authentic Mediterranean lifestyle in one of Italy’s most captivating coastal areas.
