In the heart of the Capo di Leuca, in the traditional village of San Dana, this historic masseria stands in a setting where the authentic soul of Salento is still beautifully preserved. Facing the village square, the property enjoys the atmosphere of a quiet southern Italian hamlet, where time seems to slow down and local tradition blends naturally with hospitality.
Its position is particularly strategic: within approximately 10 minutes, you can reach both the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic coast and the sandy beaches of the Ionian Sea. Two coastlines, two different landscapes, one extraordinary location.
Dating back to the 19th century and extending over more than 400 sqm, the masseria has been completely restored with great care, preserving the character of traditional Salento architecture while creating elegant and comfortable living spaces.
A PROPERTY TO LIVE IN, HOST AND SHARE
The estate is composed of 7 independent residential units, designed to offer privacy, flexibility and comfort. The interiors are rich in authentic architectural details, including star-vaulted ceilings, barrel vaults, private terraces, intimate courtyards and relaxing outdoor areas.
The main residence is arranged over several levels and opens onto a bright, spacious open-plan living area, with dining area, kitchen and bathroom. The sleeping area, located on the mezzanine level, includes two well-separated bedrooms and a large bathroom.
The other units tell the story of the masseria’s past: former stables and haylofts have been transformed into private suites with courtyards, while independent rooms and charming small apartments create a warm and intimate accommodation experience.
Altogether, the property can host more than 20 guests, making it an excellent opportunity for a boutique hospitality project, a private family estate, or a shared investment between friends or relatives. There is also the possibility of further expansion, with the creation of an additional unit of approximately 350 sqm.
OUTDOOR AREAS
The property extends over approximately 3,300 sqm and includes fruit trees, centuries-old olive trees and a variety of outdoor spaces designed for relaxation and convivial living.
The outdoor lounge area is enhanced by two masonry gazebos and a striking swimming pool finished with mosaic tiles and stone steps. More than a simple pool, it is a true open-air living space: by night, when illuminated, it becomes an elegant scenic feature that gives the entire property a refined and atmospheric character.
