State and finishing
The villa is presented in excellent condition, thanks to a complete renovation carried out in 2017, which involved both the finishes and the structural and energy-related aspects of the building.

The interiors are defined by a contemporary style, featuring large glazed surfaces that enhance the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces and provide abundant natural light throughout the day. The property includes well-organised contemporary kitchens, bathrooms finished with modern materials and distinctive decorative solutions, and comfortable bedrooms equipped with independent air conditioning.
Flooring throughout is finished in porcelain stoneware, a durable and low-maintenance material suitable for both living areas and service spaces.

Particular attention has been given to thermal insulation, with the installation of an external insulation system of approximately 12 cm on the perimeter walls and terraces, and approximately 6 cm on pillars, balconies and external staircases. This solution contributes to improved energy efficiency and enhanced living comfort, including during the winter months.

External areas
Villa Poseidon is set within a private plot of approximately 1,137 sq m, including the footprint of the buildings, thoughtfully arranged with terraced areas, paved spaces and an ornamental garden designed to enhance the panoramic position and open sea views.

The garden unfolds across multiple levels, connected by pedestrian paths, stone stairways and traditional dry-stone walls, reflecting local construction traditions and creating a harmonious and visually striking setting. The landscaped areas are enriched with Mediterranean plants, ornamental species, cacti and mature trees.

Particular emphasis is placed on the generous paved outdoor areas, designed for outdoor living and entertaining. The property features pergolas equipped with dining areas and relaxation spaces, as well as sunbathing areas distributed across different levels of the grounds.

The upper level hosts a spectacular panoramic sea-view terrace, partially covered by a pergola and fully equipped with areas dedicated to relaxation.

Use and potential uses

The strategic location, within a short distance of the sandy beaches of Pescoluse and the main destinations of Salento, combined with the quality of the spaces and the internal layout, also makes the property suitable for mixed uses, combining private living with seasonal rental income, offering attractive prospects for long-term value enhancement.
