Villa Paljari
The old stone house was rebuilt in 2011. The new structure was based on a clear philosophy, namely: health, ecology and energy. These three basic pillars can be found in all areas. The building materials were chosen so that they meet all health-related, energy-saving and ecological aspects. So natural materials were used, such as wood and sheep's wool in the insulation area. The energy concept is based on energy saving, which is why the Tenuta Paljari was built according to the criteria of a climate house B. Ecology is also taken into account in the energy sector. For example, hot water preparation and heating are carried out exclusively using solar energy and wood. All materials from the old house, wooden beams, stones and bricks were reused for the reconstruction. There are only tiles and oak floors in the Villa Paljari. The good insulation and natural materials create a pleasant indoor climate. This feeling is even more embedded in nature. Surrounding forests, vineyards, olive groves and grain fields. Various health-promoting shrubs and herbs are grown around the house. The Tenuta Paljari is located in a quiet seclusion and yet integrated into the events of the village of Visinada. The village center is only a three-minute drive away. The village can be reached on foot or by bike via the “Parenzana”, probably the most beautiful bike route in Istria. The extraordinarily large outdoor area of around 20,000 square meters offers the right ambience for everyone.
With its approx. 320 square meters, the stone house offers comfort for every taste. Divided into three structures and a spacious outdoor area with terraces, pool and lawn, it offers a lot of space. In the completely renovated "old" wing there are 5 rooms, each with its own bathroom. The rooms are traditional in style. In the new wing, the kitchen and living room are located on approximately 80 square meters. This part of the house is characterized by light and space, kept in the style of a minimal chic. A successful addition to the Istrian country style.
