HABITARE Àstricu

Rituals of a Salento Home

Just a short walk from the ancient heart of Lecce, HABITARE Àstricu is an independent private residence created for those who wish to experience the city in a more authentic, relaxed and deeply Salento-inspired way.

Located only 50 metres from Porta Napoli – approximately a 3-minute walk from Lecce's historic centre – HABITARE Àstricu allows guests to explore the old town on foot while enjoying the convenience of a private gated parking space, away from the restrictions of the city's limited traffic zone (ZTL).

The residence is part of a late 19th-century home and still preserves some of the most authentic elements of traditional Lecce architecture:

• exposed stone vaulted ceilings

• original cement tile floors

• historic solid wood doors

• authentic materials and details shaped by time

HABITARE Àstricu is conceived as a living project.

The house will continue to evolve over time through a careful and respectful restoration process, guided by the selection of authentic materials, reclaimed elements and interventions designed to preserve the original character and soul of the home.

Not a place created in haste, but a home that grows slowly over time, preserving its memory, personality and authenticity.

• master bedroom with en-suite bathroom
