Property Tour in Lecce, Puglia.

[@rooftopstudios]

I've just sold my home In Melbourne Australia and I'm gonna find that dream home in Italy...especially after that very ingenious introduction incorporating the reflection and sun to spell out Puglia. You're a clever and very engaging likeable man Signor Nick :)

[@italianproperty]

Thank you so much. Congratulations on your house sale. Let me know if you need any help. Best wishes, Nick.

Well be prepared to only be able to stay six months a Year. Unless you plan on getting a full time job in Italy

I don’t blame you. So many people are leaving Melbourne.

There is absolutely no way that anyone could be bored with the Potential of this Property...every room is a Charm! Amazing space! It seems the World has turned into a Box!

[@juliasal6656]

I’m Italian, from High Salento specifically, but I love to watch these videos. Old houses contain the history of that place, of the region they’re in, and Puglia is no exception. It’s lovely to see such an interest in the wall stones, the wood forniture, the typical floors… This house just screams “home” to me (I studied in Lecce, too), from the fig plant growing out the dam wall, as usual of figs, to the “cementine” on the floor, to the “cucina economica” with white tiles and iron cooker, to the carparo and pietra leccese house around, the church bells and the chianche on the street ❤️ Just lovely

Julia, I have fallen in love with your special homeland! Such incredible history, beauty and authenticity. I enjoy everywhere I’ve been as a tourist in Italy, but going to Salento feels like going home, and I have no Italian blood at all. 😂. I even bought an ancient place in Galatina with star vaults and cucina economica. Just started the renovation and happy to be returning to Italy this month to check progress. 😌

[@Lemoncatsf]

We had the pleasure of staying in Lecce’s historic center in a beautiful vacation rental. Fell in love with the town and surrounding area. Understated compared to the typical popular tourist attractions. Gorgeous beaches within driving distance. I felt that I could stay the rest of my life there. The property itself would likely need to be redone stone by stone so hopefully the right person will be able to take care of it without destroying it’s historical character.

[@loribaker758]

It must have been amazing in its day. It has the potential to be amazing again, but at what cost! 😳 Once completed, you will be into it for way more than it is worth. Thank you for the tour. It was fun imagining what it was like in it’s glory days.

[@iritassa8088]

this is a joke .

[@davidmullens2464]

I doubt your cost/price observations Lori, as long as the structure is sound (and it very probably is, the walls will be very heavy masonry) and you don't try to make the property into something that it isn't by remodelling the interior space, the costs should not be high. Puglia is one of the more economical regions and there are loads of building companies to chose from. This house scores also because unlike so many out of town properties, having property in the Centro Storico of any of these southern Italian towns WITH the added benefit of off-road parking has become highly desirable to Italians in recent years.

[@minaperisic6587]

There is no off-road parking, it's just an entrance. Even if it's possible to enter a very tiny car(?!) it would be impossible to get out of it - the corridor is too narrow.

[@italianproperty]

Thank you Lori for your comment. Property prices in Lecce have quadrupled in 15 years and the only way is up! Best wishes, Nick.

[@davidmullens2464]

@@minaperisic6587 I've seen much smaller and it's common in old Italian towns. Believe me it really does make a difference for the Italian buyer. Clearly they won't be parking a big SUV inside, I'm thinking Fiat 500/Panda parked hard against one wall.

Thanks for having us at the beach with you. And even finishing the tour off with the beach. A house is more that the sum of its walls and windows. What is around it has to be considered. A beach sure helps!

Hi Nick , Thankyou for that beautiful intro and taking the time to put this together for us while your on holiday. It’s so sad to see these amazing homes that have been in the same family for generations come to such disrepair. That place has so much potential but I think only for the very rich.

[@moviebuff6490]

Thank you for this beautiful tour. I know whoever is lucky enough to purchase this apartment will turn it into a jewel.

[@davidmullens2464]

Wonderful, that glassed area would make an absolutely amazing kitchen or living room. I imagine that done up it would be worth 3 or more times the purchase price with private parking making it exceptional and saleable. I've a friend who did one up a few years ago not far away and the large vaulted rooms come out really well, cool, clean and peaceful but close to the buzz of Southern Italian life and easily accessible by air. I wonder if the Regione Puglia would provide financial assistance for restructuring, I understand they do for rural properties. Pity you were unable to show more of Lecce, a beautiful and historic town. Love the place, love the mixture of cultures (anyone recognise the Spanish feel to the buildings) and that there's a local dialect that is essentially Greek dating back to before the arrival of Rome. Thanks Nick, you need to go on holiday more often.

[@italianproperty]

Thanks David. Yes, more holidays. 😊 If only! Personally, I think it’s a great long term investment. It has all the elements; location, outside space and a historical vista. I was told property prices have quadrupled in 15 years. Yes, it was a shame I couldn’t tour more. Next year. Best, Nick.

[@lloydburton5622]

Nick, what a fantastic piece of property. I love the atrium with all the glass walls and ceilings. A great place to relax and enjoy the sunlight and have it as a sitting area to have dinner. Often times location is key to selling a piece of property, and even though this place needs some major renovations I see a lot of potential for someone who wants to make this their home in this historical city. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I thoroughly enjoyed the video.

[@italianproperty]

I absolutely agree with you Lloyd and thank you for your message. Best wishes, Nick.

[@princessindigo]

I love unique floorplans like this property. The space needs a lot of work but I'm sure the right people would love a restoration contract like this one. The courtyards with the glass windows would make a great plant space/sitting area. The car park needs a cute minicooper. Lots of creative potential here for a home/business concept.

I totally agree. Lots of plants, staircase to a beautiful view overlooking the cathedral. I’m now thinking of turning the parking area into another garden. Thanks for your message. ❤️ 🙏 Nick.

Nick, thanks for taking the time out from your vacation to put together this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've never been to Lecce; il centro storico looks nice. The property has a lot of potential. My only critique (and it's lighthearted) are your references to "not modernized" and it just needs some "spit and polish". Actually, it's pretty close to a ruin. I think you're on a bit of a "holiday high". Thanks again, and I look forward to your next video.

[@italianproperty]

❤️ Thank you. Nick.

[@theoverlord1925]

There is a reason why the price has been reduced: Who in their right mind would pay €265,000 for a derelict space that would cost a TON of money to fix up properly. The place probably has damp and other “ nasty” and costly surprises waiting for the person who takes over the project. That’s what normally happens when you try and redo an ancient property that has been neglected for so long.For that kind of money a German friend of mine bought a huge villa with a swimming pool just outside of Ostuni. Plus who wants to live next to the cathedral and hear the bells ring regularly; nope ,thanks not for me.Lecce is a great city though and Puglia is beautiful .

[@splifster88]

Ahmazing! This totally fired up my imagination. If I were younger it may even be a project I would consider… the conservatory alone is worth the price… and I keep thinking of the mystery terrace … plus parking!! In a quaint Italian town! Sigh … bellissimo!

Glad you're enjoying Puglia. Not my favorite, although I can imagine at least visiting some day perhaps. The property is certainly what they call in the States "a fixer upper". I see how it has potential, yet does need someone with vision, ambition, and ability. Yesterday I grilled here more food than needed, but the rain has arrived here today as well, yet so has an early lunch re-heated and served with Chenin Blanc.

[@elmoretingle]

I’m curious. What don’t you like about Lecce? My husband and I were thinking of spending more time there.

[@Rr-lh7rq]

@@elmoretingle well, Lecce has all the typical problems of all towns in the south of Italy. Except for the historical center the rest of the town is a mass of concrete with no green areas. There's a wild traffic jam and the road maintenance is very superficial. There aren't really places for children or young people. Very little job opportunities and underpaid . It's not unusual to see trash bags in the street especially in suburbs areas. But if you come to Lecce as a tourist it's another story...

[@elmoretingle]

Yes, you’re right. A tourist sees only the well tended historic areas and doesn’t have to deal with poor governance, traffic snarl ups, and garbage on the streets. We see the most idealized view of the town. Thank you for your comments.

[@annedodd5888]

Lecce is a stunning Baroque town: city ( it has a cathedral) This house would be a huge undertaking to restore & require bottom less bags of cash!! In my summer tour of Puglia I was really impressed with Monopoli - a smaller town on the coast, not far from Polignano which was overrun with tourists.. Pls continue your trips and videos around Italy we we can all dream of owning / restoring a house there one day.❤️💚❤️

Hi Nick! Thanks again for sharing. Would love to know your opinion RE: a reasonable cost to restore this property.

[@italianproperty]

Hi Rory, Really all depends on what you want to do. My mind was racing when I first looked around. The great thing is you have all the services, gas, water, electric etc already accessible. I would start with 100k, so probably all done for 150k. Hope this helps. 🙏 Nick.

@@italianproperty thanks for that Nick. Very much appreciate it. Any idea if there is a prohibition on short term rentals in that specific section of the city?

What a beauty!!! Was the beach water warm? Live in Florida and our beach water temperature is 87 degrees (f) right now. Enjoyed the visit.

Hi Patricia, The sea temperature was amazing. ❤️ Nick.

As an architect, I agree with the quality of space and the huge potential of this property. But as an architect, I do not make enough to afford this property. 😂

Love you comment Melvin. 😊 😂 Nick.

Sometimes I think the word ‘potential’ is the most dangerous, seductive word in the English language.

[@italianproperty]

Yep, but I love it. ❤️ 🙏 Nick.

Beautiful indeed!

[@metalgirl]

Wow…. !!! Needs work but will be nice when renovated.

260,000 Euro? Ridiculous. It's a mess.

It sold and has been fully restored. I hope to do the after video soon. Best wishes, Nick.
