Castri di Lecce, Apulia 73020

The charm of stone and the breath of open spaces: where time has preserved authenticity. In the ancient heart of Castrì di Lecce, along the historic Via Giovanni Vernazza, stands a property that embodies the authentic charm of yesteryear homes. Located directly opposite the understated elegance of the Ducal Palace, this independent residence spans a total covered area of 264 square meters, offering spacious and airy areas designed for those seeking independence and the substance of historic walls. Crossing the entrance threshold, one is immediately enveloped in a suggestive atmosphere: a volume characterized by a dramatic star vault that opens onto the entrance courtyard, serving as a bright and welcoming heart that introduces to the living area. From here, the gaze rises towards ceilings that reach an average height of 5 meters, providing a rare natural brightness found in period buildings. The eight main rooms unfold in a play of perspectives enhanced by classic star and flat ceiling vaults, where Lecce stone dialogues with the original cement tile pavements and period wooden fixtures. Continuing towards the interior of the residence, one discovers the rear garden: a private area of about 110 square meters entirely enclosed by walls, where one can enjoy maximum privacy and the silence of the village. Completing this unique property are the adjacent terraces, usable solar-paved areas that offer a privileged view of the square and the historic facade of the Ducal Palace. This residence is not just a property, but a rare opportunity where the elementary charm of a simple structure merges with pure and silent architectural marvel. The generosity of the volumes and the linearity of the spaces leave ample room for any vision: whether one wishes to create a private residence with a magnetic character or an elite hospitality project, here history serves creativity. ItS an invitation to reclaim a piece of authentic Salento, a place where the beauty of the essential opens the door to infinite customization possibilities. Property Code Ds003
