Pajara il Mirto

CIS LE07502891000003924

In the characteristic Salento landscape there is the “Pajara il Mirto”. Typical Salento building once used as a temporary shelter by farmers, surrounded by lush vegetation typical of the “Mediterranean scrub”, with intense colors and heady scents. The myrtle is the master of it flanked by the laurel, the carob tree, the olive trees … the sea is the frame. The pajara is the lookout of this enchanting garden.

While maintaining its original architectural features, it has been completely restored by craftsmen faithful to the old stone and tuff working techniques. Respecting its traditions, but embracing new styles, making it fresh, bright, minimal, hospitable, a perfect nest for those who love to experience the sea and nature. Perfect symbiosis between history and modernity.

The sea can be reached in 10 minutes on foot along the suggestive “path of the Cipolliane”.

COMPOSITION

The house consists of three rooms: living area, bathroom and bedroom. Large and bright rooms.

Living area: furnished in a minimal style but equipped with every comfort: induction hob, dishwasher, large stone sink and a large and functional worktop. Stone walls grouted in white lime. Candid white ceiling totally covered in wood supported by large beams.

The bathroom: large shower with glass wall. The washbasin is an old stone vat with an irregular shape, placed on a concrete surface. The large mirror framed by white sticks is a piece of furniture that makes the environment welcoming and relaxing.

The bedroom is the “Trullo”, a structure adjacent to the pajara. The two rooms are connected by a passage built by large tuff bricks of a blinding white. The Trullo is a typical conical dry stone construction. It too, like pajara, was historically used by peasants as a shelter or warehouse. At the apex of the cone an opening on the sky. A large door leading to the outside. It seems a whole, neither outside nor inside. The bed is the only furniture. Outrageous. Round. Totally in concrete with modern structure and large container compartment. A rope seat suspended in the air. The whole environment smells of lightness. Of romantic. Of peace.

EXTERIOR: Livable in a simple and romantic way, outside everything is in absolute harmony with nature. Wide spaces and paths intertwined among the vegetation. The large table at the foot of an ancient olive tree. It tastes like home. It tastes romantic. The pool integrates perfectly with the surrounding environment. It is a small lake with an irregular perimeter, with round and soft lines. Salt water, in total respect for the environment.

A magical place. The location, the colors, the scents are magical. Its uncertain rocks, its “live” paths that like snakes insinuate themselves among the vegetation. And then …. the sea … the sea around … the sea everywhere !!!
