PROPERTY INFORMATION

|
|
| Dating back to the end of the 16th century, this Sicilian farmstead in east Sicily, is within easy driving distance of the Baroque towns of Modica, Noto, Scicli, Ragusa Ibla and the ceramics centre of Caltagirone. The property is set on top of a hill with views over the surrounding landscape of cornfields, carob trees and dry stone walls with the sea in the distance. Recently restored, this property comprises the main house and an adjacent tower. There is also a particularly beautiful courtyard, paved with local stone and with a small swimming pool and furnished with garden furniture.
At ground floor level there is a very large sitting room with large central fireplace and mezzanine level. There is also a dining room, 'eat in' kitchen, a double bedroom with a single bed on a mezzanine level. The second bedroom has three single beds and double bed on a mezzanine level (both these rooms are air-conditioned) and a further twin bedroom. There are three shower rooms, one has a hydromassage shower.
In the tower there is a sitting room with fireplace, kitchen, WC, terrace and patio. On the first floor level there is a double and twin bedroom, both with air-conditioning and terraces and one bathroom.
The interiors of both the main house and the tower are furnished in inviting country style with beamed ceilings, and country furniture and co-ordinated furnishings in warm country colours. The kitchens have been tiled with pretty majolica tiles from the ceramics centre of Caltagirone.
At the rear of the property there is large swimming pool with hydromassage and parquet solarium, showers and changing rooms. The property is surrounded by an extensive garden with lawns, ancient olive trees, almond and citrus trees, jasmine and other shrubs. |
