Charming ancient courtyard palace, located in the historic centre of Martano, dating back to 1800 and featured by architectural elements made of “leccese stone”, typical of the Salento style, and a magnificent entrance hall, partly covered by a splendid star vault.
The rooms of the house are very bright and airy, even though it is an ancient construction.
The building, of about 250 sqm, is spread over a single level and all rooms, except for the kitchen and the bathrooms, are provided with parquet floor, mentioning the stunning mosaic of the boardroom.
All the rooms are wide and bright both in the living area, which houses a double living room and a large study, and in each of the bedrooms : there are three bathrooms, one of which has a hydromassage tub, a convenient laundry area, a spacious built-in kitchen with Carrara marble top.
The entrance and the area in front of the kitchen give access to the wide and beautiful terrace of about 120 sqm composed by hand-made flooring of local production, facing the internal courtyard, in which have been made a storage room and and a wood oven.
From the terrace, through staircase, there is access to a further little terrace with a splendid panoramic view.
The property is equipped with wooden window frames and independent heating system.
The property is located a few kilometers from the stunning Otranto, in Martano (LE), county seat of Grecia Salentina, whose origins date back to prehistory as presumed by the presence of megalithic monuments: the town is located in a strategic area and it is 18 km away from Lecce and 70 km away from Brindisi airport.
