Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Minimalist and modern, this Santa Maria di Leuca home is ideal for an Italian getaway. You're never more than a short walk or drive from the sea, shops, and beaches. Even so, we can't blame you if you'd rather stay at home and enjoy the sun-kissed garden – and the sea views. Mornings call for alfresco breakfasts on the terrace, afternoons are best spent splashing in the swimming pool, and evenings end with a glass of Italian vino as the sun sets along the coast. It sounds like pure bliss to us.

About Lecce
