COPERTINO - LECCE - SALENTO
A few kilometers from the town of Copertino, surrounded by a vast expanse of almost 6 hectares of land, is available for sale an ancient masseria dating back to the mid-1800s.
This beautiful property is located in "Contrada Monaci", whose name comes from the monks who formed the first settlements in the area and espoused the philosophy of hermit life based on prayer and the cultivation of the fields.
It is arranged on two levels, ground floor and first floor, and features beautiful lounges and large panoramic terraces.
Adjacent, there are further rooms in a rustic state once used as residences for the domestic staff as well as storages, for a total covered area of about 2,400 sqm.
The Masseria still retains all the places connected to the agricultural activities of the past such as the accommodation for the farmers, the oven, the cisterns for collecting rainwater, the dovecote, the granaries, the rooms for storing seeds, those for milk processing and cheese maturing, and the oil mill.
It also has the necessary requirements to apply to the subsidized finance programs of the Puglia Region, including the new Mini Pia Turismo, intended for the recovery of the historical heritage.
Copertino is located 15 km from Lecce, 10 km from Nardò, about 20 km from the beautiful marinas of Santa Maria al Bagno and Santa Caterina and 44 km from Brindisi airport.
