E009A – Detached house – Melendugno (Lecce)
“The brightness of Salento is something that stuns”.
Fabrizio Borgio (writer)

Slowness, light, and nature are the essence of this natural-toned home: outside, the colors harmonize with the local buildings while inside, light colors interact with the warmth of the Rex ceramic stone floor of the North, creating a refined play of contrasts.

The house, built with Lecce stone, is located in the Melendugno countryside, famous for its beautiful seascapes, immersed in a landscape that belongs to it: expanses of ancient olive trees and small and scattered rural buildings define a territory with a deep and silent identity.
The house is set in a meticulously well kept plot of approximately 8,000 square meters, dotted with various trees (such as figs, pomegranates, strawberry trees, and other native plants), and around fifty productive olive trees, enlivened by flowerbeds and enclosed by dry stone walls that gently mark its boundary.

A refuge of approximately 86 sqm, designed with precision and measurement, it is very well distributed: an entrance that opens onto the living room - a living room that, if necessary, converts into an additional bedroom - a dining room with an open-space kitchen overlooking and in direct dialogue on a patio —a hallway with comfortable built-in wardrobes, a windowed bathroom with shower serving and completing the living area; the sleeping area is composed by a double bedroom equipped with built-in wardrobes with en-suite bathroom with French door and walk-in shower.
In correspondence with the living room and dining room there is a barrel vault in exposed Lecce stone which makes the spaces even more airy and bright.

The covered patio - which opens to the outside - overlooks a garden dotted with a few citrus trees and flowerbeds, entirely surrounded by an ancient dry stone wall closed by a gate that allows access to the outdoor land.
The patio features an outdoor kitchen made of Lecce stone with gas stoves and a barbecue fireplace also made of Lecce stone, ideal for outdoor grilling.

Indoor and outdoor communicate through doors and windows with fittings and shutters in Corten della Secco Systems with thermal glass, a material that invites natural continuity between interior and exterior.
An oasis of quiet and well-being, where the open spaces are not mere appurtenances but the beating heart of the house: places designed for relaxation, conviviality and an authentic encounter with the surrounding landscape.
