History and Potential € 250.000This elegant residence occupies the entire ground floor of a historic farmhouse built in 1930 for a prominent local physician, who chose this peaceful location among the Serre Salentine as his country residence. Over the years, the original estate was divided among family members, while preserving the architectural identity and historic charm of the property. Today, this ground-floor residence represents an exceptional opportunity to own part of an authentic Salento masseria with generous living spaces and remarkable versatility.
The property offers approximately 262 sqm of living accommodation arranged on a single level and is currently configured as two completely independent residential units, making it ideal for extended families, multi-generational living or for those wishing to combine private use with a boutique hospitality business.
The residence features four bedrooms, three bathrooms and two fully equipped kitchens, allowing immediate flexibility without requiring structural alterations.
Inside, the home beautifully preserves the traditional character of Salento architecture. Stunning star-vaulted and barrel-vaulted ceilings, carefully restored to their original splendour, rise to approximately 3.90 metres, creating bright, elegant interiors full of character and architectural distinction.
To the rear of the property lies approximately 5,070 sqm of private land, offering complete privacy and outstanding potential for the construction of a swimming pool, landscaped Mediterranean gardens or additional outdoor leisure areas. The estate also includes two spacious storage rooms at basement level with direct access to the garden, a covered portico perfect for outdoor living throughout the year and a roof terrace that further enhances the property's versatility.
The residence is currently accessed through the historic shared courtyard of the original masseria. However, thanks to the generous size of the surrounding land, there is the possibility of creating a completely independent entrance, further increasing both the property's privacy and long-term value.
Combining authentic architecture, generous living spaces and significant development potential, this residence represents an exceptional opportunity both as an elegant private home and as a boutique hospitality investment in one of the fastest-growing areas of Salento.
Location information: In the heart of authentic Salento, surrounded by centuries-old olive groves, unspoilt countryside and timeless rural landscapes, this charming portion of a historic 1930 farmhouse (masseria) is located in Supersano, a characteristic village in the inland area of the Province of Lecce, nestled at the foot of the Serre Salentine, the highest hilly area in the province.
This part of Salento offers a unique natural environment. Thanks to the geological characteristics of the Serre Salentine, rainwater naturally flows downhill without stagnating, creating a particularly healthy microclimate with excellent air quality, lush Mediterranean vegetation and an exceptional quality of life. It is the perfect setting for those seeking peace, privacy and nature while remaining within easy reach of modern amenities.
The surrounding area boasts an extraordinary natural and historical heritage. The Paduli Regional Park, monumental olive groves, the Serra di Supersano Nature Reserve, the spectacular Fao and Vora karst sinkholes, ancient menhirs and the Byzantine Crypt of Coelimanna all contribute to making this one of the most authentic and fascinating areas of southern Italy.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property enjoys a strategic location just a few minutes from the towns of Supersano and Casarano, while the renowned coastal destinations of Gallipoli, Pescoluse and Santa Maria di Leuca are all easily accessible within a short drive.
In recent years, this inland area of Salento has attracted growing interest from both Italian and international buyers looking for authentic properties, competitive prices and excellent long-term investment potential compared to the increasingly saturated coastal market.
Property specifications: Historic ground-floor residence forming part of a traditional 1930 Salento farmhouse (masseria), offering approximately 262 sqm of living space arranged on a single level and currently divided into two independent residential units.
