In Specchia Gallone, an elegant and charming residence is for sale. What makes it truly unique is the meticulous restoration and enhancement of ancient and traditional architectural elements from the original structure, combined with oriental antique furnishings and contemporary design pieces, which together give the home elegance and originality. The property consists of three units. The first unit features a beautiful double bedroom with a wooden ceiling, a bathroom, and access to the garden.
The second unit is spread over two levels. On the ground floor, there are two separate areas: the first consists of a large bedroom of approximately 40 sqm with a barrel-vaulted ceiling, a living room with a fireplace, a bathroom, and a small private patio; the second area comprises a double bedroom with a star-vaulted ceiling, a living room with independent access to the garden, and a bathroom. On the first floor of this unit — accessible via both an internal and an external staircase — there are two additional double bedrooms, each with wooden ceilings, a shared bathroom with a shower, and large terraces, some overlooking the garden and others offering panoramic views of the rooftops of the historic center.
The third unit houses the bright and spectacular living area, designed as an open space that includes a stone fireplace with a sofa, a modern fully-equipped stainless steel kitchen, and a dining area with a large table. Large glass doors open onto a shaded patio with a pergola, equipped with a table, a stone sink, and a barbecue, perfect for dining while enjoying a picturesque view of the swimming pool, surrounded by lawn, orange, and lemon trees.
The property is located in the historic center of the small and peaceful village of Specchia Gallone, less than 10 km from the sea of Porto Badisco, and a little further from the beautiful sandy beaches of Otranto, the picturesque town of Santa Cesarea, and the medieval village of Castro — all well connected and easily reachable. Completely renovated, the property can ideally be divided into three independent residential units, arranged within the garden in a way that guarantees privacy and total tranquility for all guests, making it also ideal for use as a hospitality business. Additional features include underfloor heating in the living area, hot/cold fan coil units in the rest of the property, an alarm system, an irrigation system, solar panels for hot water, a photovoltaic system, and double-glazed PVC windows.
