In the heart of the Salento hinterland, just minutes from its most enchanting beaches, this typical Masseria dating back to 1629, completely renovated, offers an authentic and refined experience. The property covers a covered area of 713 sqm, with a stunning 100 sqm infinity pool, a 160 sqm lodge and a fascinating 300 sqm underground oil mill, plus an additional building in a rustic state.

The main structure, measuring 713 square meters, is developed in the typical L-shaped conformation around a large courtyard and is currently used as a high-level accommodation facility. The whole is surrounded by a Mediterranean garden of about 2,500 square meters, enriched by citrus trees, prickly pears and colorful flowers.

The entrance welcomes guests to a spacious living area, with living, dining, kitchen and two hallways, all with direct access to the outdoor courtyard. The master dwelling is on one level and includes a spacious bedroom, bathroom, hallway and hobby room.

The sleeping area houses six spacious double bedrooms, all with typical vaults and ensuite bathrooms. Each room enjoys private outdoor spaces, with shaded areas and an outdoor breakfast area.
The 100-square-meter infinity pool represents a perfect balance between modernity and tradition, offering a relaxing corner with a splendid panoramic view of the estate.
The Masseria is completely water self-sufficient, thanks to an artesian well and a 100,000-liter cistern. Sustainability is ensured by a 13 kWh photovoltaic system with storage batteries, while an underground gas tank meets heating needs.

A short distance from the Masseria is a lovely, recently renovated lodge, perfect for private and comfortable stays. The complex includes two self-contained apartments with kitchen, bedroom and bathroom, as well as a studio apartment.
One of the most fascinating elements of the property is the 300-plus-square-meter underground oil mill, carved entirely out of the crumbly rock.

This underground structure testifies to Presicce’s historical importance in the lampante oil trade in the 18th century. The mill maintains a constant temperature of 17°C, ideal for processing and storing oil.

Above the hypogean oil mill is a 120-square-meter building in a rustic state, featuring striking vaulted ceilings, with the possibility of being converted into a guest house with living room, large porch and two bedrooms with private bathrooms.

The horse stables provide a perfect haven for the Masseria’s animals, while the surrounding forest lends itself to sensory trails and yoga activities in a pristine environment.

Pescoluse, one of the most popular beach resorts in Salento, is famous for its crystal-clear waters and sandy seabed, ideal for families with children.
It has received prestigious awards such as the Blue Flag and Green Flag, thanks to the quality of its fine, golden sand beaches.
