A charming agricultural sloped plot located off the town Morciano di Leuca is now in sale by Salento Agency. The land is easily accessible thanks to its direct entrance from Morciano’s street – Via Magna Grecia. The property extends over 4,300 square meters and represents a particularly suggestive natural settings immersed in typical vegetation of the Mediterranean scrubland such as mastic, myrtle, rockrose, wild rosemary, and persimmon (kaki) trees – the greenery that creates that particular, thus authentic natural environment of the Salento landscape.
Forte of the property is characteristic liama- a traditional rural stoned-built structure, one of the most recognizable architectural elements of the Salento countryside- that reins this sloped land. In the past these buildings were commonly used as storage for farming tools/shelters for farmers. Liama offers the possibility to be refurbished and transformed further into a welcoming living space with a comfortable bedroom and the bathroom while preserving the charm of local architecture. From liama’s roof there is a stunning sea-view over the Ionian Coast.
Several preliminary works have already been completed on the property, liama included, such as electricity network connection, Artesian well and dry-stoned entrance columns. All works enhanced the value and beauty of the property respecting the ancient construction techniques of this region and blending perfectly into the rural landscape. Inside the liama, the bathroom systems and partition walls have already been made simplifying the completion of the refurbishment process.
Another forte of the property is an approved independent-villa project. The planned house has been designed in full respect of local architectural traditions; therefore, it includes typical star-shaped vaulted ceilings- a distinctive feature of historic Salento architecture. The project provides well-organized interior space, encompassing a kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The house layout has been carefully envisaged to ensure comfort and practicality while maintaining a strong connection with the traditional construction Salento style. And again, an amazing sea-view over the Ionian Coast can be treasured from the house’s roof as both liama and new project house are located at the same altitude above sea level. The outdoor part of the project designs creation of a shaded area- a perfect space for al fresco dining and relaxing in the peaceful atmosphere of the Salento countryside.
As mentioned above, the land is equipped with Artesian well that guarantees water availability throughout the entire year. For wastewater disposal instead, the future owner will have to install a sub-irrigation system in accordance with the current regional regulations.
A brief drive away lies the seaside village of Torre Vado- a well-known coastal destination overlooking the Ionian Sea, appreciated for its seafront promenade, its small tourist harbor and its clear, crystal waters that attract many tourists from all over the world.
In short, the location of this property is an ideal balance between peace of the nature and proximity to the sea with some of the most beautiful beaches in Italy, allowing residents to get most of the Salento lifestyle.
