House hunting in the most beautiful city in Southern Italy - Lecce Puglia

Love my work and want to see more of Just Dream Italy? Consider becoming a patron: / justdreamitaly
Who wouldn't love living in a historic home in one of the amazing areas of Lecce, the Florence of the South! Today I visit the capital of Salento, taste some of its delicious typical food and go on 2 house tours.
House one is in San Cesario di Lecce, asking price 170.000,00€ and house two in San Pietro in Lama for 85.000,00€.
*Correction from the video: Lecce is the 5th largest city in Puglia - not the 2nd. Thanks to those who picked up on this.
if you are ready to start your dream house search in Italy, send me an email to marco@justdreamitaly.com.

    Totally agree . Very well done video tours. It’s nice you not only show the property but also highlight the town and surrounding area. I would also suggest to include wether the listing is hooked up to town water and sewer. It’s a very nice listing and reasonable price. Cheers !!

    An Englishman living in Sicily here. We moved here in 2019 and rented for two years whilst looking for a place to buy. Seeing properties was a mixture of excitement and depression. So many nice places but many needing tens of thousand worth of work. But the potential was there. We eventually found a lovely house overlooking the sea that needed no building work - just new A/C and boiler. Good luck with your search.

    Gorgeous! And in my favorite part of Italy! I can't believe someone didn't buy the whole thing. The fact that the two studios on the ground floor were sold separately makes it a bit less attractive. It would be amazing to have the whole thing, and to use the studios as guest rooms or for a home office or something

    Nice touch using taralli as a location marker. I just happened to be on a trip to Italy just before this was posted, and had a great time wandering around Lecce at one point. At lunch, I discovered taralli ... it is somewhat like a cross between a cracker and bread, and something unique to Puglia apparently. Was fantastic with the salmon salad I had.

    Sorry, a quick correction: Lecce is not Puglia's second biggest city (I'm not sure why you guys that market properties there keep saying this), Taranto has almost 200,000 inhabitants and Foggia has around 150,000...Lecce is the most touristy and surely the most attractive, but is quite small in comparison to the others that I've just mentioned
