Presicce-Acquarica, Salento, Lecce, Apulia
In the hinterland of Salento, only a few minutes away from its most enchanting beaches, D'Amico Immobiliare offers you for sale this typical Masseria from 1629 of 1,063sqm covered in total, renovated, with a 100 sqm swimming pool, a large Lodge, ancient stables and an suggestive hypogeum oil mill of 300sqm, located within a land of about 3 hectares.
The Property
The main building of the ancient Masseria, measuring approximately 713 sqm covered, is arranged in the typical L-shaped structure, around the large courtyard, and is currently used as a high-level accommodation facility.
The entrance welcomes guests into the day area, consisting of a living room, a dining room and a kitchen area, with two hallways, opening onto the outdoor courtyard. The master's dwelling, on the same floor, develops into a large bedroom, with bathroom, hallway and a hobby room.
The sleeping area, on the other hand, consists of 6 spacious double bedrooms with typical vaults, all served by ensuite bathrooms for exclusive use. Wooden canopies and shaded areas allow guests in each room to enjoy the outdoor breakfast room and moments of relaxation in the typical Mediterranean garden, amidst flowers, citrus fruits and prickly pears.
A short distance from the Masseria, a charming, recently renovated lodge is the ideal solution for a comfortable and private stay. The complex consists of two independent flats, consisting of a kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, and a studio apartment.
The 100 sqm infinity pool is the modern and fresh touch on this refined estate, allowing patrons to enjoy rejuvenating moments both in summer and during the milder seasons, while enjoying a splendid panoramic view of the rest of the estate.
The historical and most authentic note of this Masseria, however, is the suggestive hypogeum oil mill, of over 300 square metres. Completely dug into the friable rock, the underground complex bears witness to a time when the Salento region was a land of great exports of lampante oil throughout the world, which was processed in the stone vats, in order to preserve its organoleptic characteristics, at a constant temperature of 17 degrees. Presicce, the town where the Masseria is located, was known in the 18th century as the ‘underground city’, and oil mills like this one, along with another 30 currently surveyed, represent the most tangible legacy of this evocative history.
Just above the hypogeum oil mill rises another building, currently in a rustic state, of a further 120 sqm, characterised by vaulted ceilings, which can be configured as an additional Guest House with a living room, large outdoor portico and 2 bedrooms served by 2 bathrooms.
A short distance away, old stables for horses provide the ideal shelter for the Masseria's animals.
The property is completed by an extraordinary wood, ideal for sensory trails in contact with the virgin Mediterranean nature.
Facilities and services
Completely renovated, the Masseria is made more independent, in terms of water requirements, by an artesian well that supports the needs of both the living areas and the swimming pool thanks to a 100,000-litre cistern.
A 12 Kwh photovoltaic system, on the other hand, supports electricity consumption, while a gas tank meets heating needs.
This Masseria represents a splendid complex that could lend itself well to both luxury accommodation and diffuse living, thanks to its spacious and modulated dwellings and the strategic position in which it is logistically located.
The masseria is for sale complete with all its furnishings.

PESCOLUSE is one of the most renowned seaside resorts in the whole of Salento. Over the years it has received several awards, including the Blue Flag and the Green Flag thanks to its waters, which are among the cleanest and most crystal-clear in Italy, and its shallow, sandy seabed. For this reason, its beaches, stretches of fine, golden sand, are particularly suitable for families with children.
