Description

The building overlooks the square of S. Antonio Abbate, at the highest point in the historic center of the small village of Castiglione di Sicily, surrounded by splendid baroque sacred architecture and sumptuous aristocratic buildings. The property occupies almost a whole block of the neighborhood and consists of two bodies, which respectively accommodate a private residence - belonging to an ecclesiastic, whose stairs are well recognizable inside the building - and a restaurant, the result of the recent renovation of the old cellar and warehouses belonging to the Monsignor. The restaurant is accessed by a narrow alley among the ancient buildings, private and characteristic for its views of the bell towers of the churches. A courtyard anticipates the entrance to the room and becomes the ideal place for outdoor tasting, with its cistern and typical lava stone seats leaning against the façade, already richly decorated. In the room on the ground floor there is the kitchen and toilet for guests, while upstairs there is a restaurant room with parquet and exposed wooden beams, a space for about 50 seats. From the courtyard you can access the old lava stone cellar for the conservation of wines and the terrace on the first level, which becomes a connecting bridge between the two bodies and potential additional outdoor space, to be dedicated to the commercial activity. The aristocratic building of nineteenth century is composed of large and bright rooms and is articulated on three independent levels. The mezzanine floor houses the smallest rooms including the warehouses and the kitchen with wood-burning oven, while on the first level there is the main floor, an elegant seven-room apartment in typical Sicilian style overlooking the square. On the second and last floor there is a large room, ideal for a second housing unit. The property includes two rooms for garage use on the ground floor. The property needs recovery work to bring back the decorations and wonders of the past.
