Salento Agency offers for sale a lovely farmhouse in Giuliano di Lecce, in via Regina Elena
This beautiful property is located in the historic centre of Giuliano di Lecce, a village characterised by an ancient castle dating back to the 16th century, a menhir that preserves the history of the village and an ancient underground oil mill built in 1789.
This lovely farmhouse consists of several rooms on the ground floor and an underground oil mill dating back to 1789 (the time of the industrial revolution).
The hypogeum oil mill is obviously located in the basement and still preserves a beautiful stone millstone and the milling vat.
On the ground floor is the machinery used for milling olives.
Large rooms with typical star vaults were used for the hydraulic presses, while a room with a barrel vault and fireplace was the accountant’s office.
A second large room with a triple star vault was the room where the olives to be pressed were stored, and adjacent to it were two rooms with Lecce stone tanks where the oil produced was stored. At the back was the galley and a storage room.
A large courtyard separated the processing rooms with the three rooms for livestock and agricultural tools.
At the back there is a large garden of 400 metres, accessible from Via Frosinone.
Possibility of access to regional and European funding for purchase and renovation. For more information call 3395803604 or write an e-mail to salentoagency@gmail.com.
