7 bedrooms villa, 565 m²

Modica, Ragusa (province)

This historic noble villa, restored with fine materials and enriched with original decorative details, is located near archaeological site of Cava Ispica in Modica. The villa has been renovated with particular attention to detail, preserving the original values and creating a perfect blend of characteristic Sicilian style and the modern requirements of a high-end residence. It is spread over two levels: on the ground floor is a spacious living room, furnished in traditional style and enhanced by characteristic and refined elements such as the stone fireplace, creating an atmosphere of warm hospitality. The old masonry kitchen with wood-burning oven, decorated with original Sicilian copper utensils and an internal well, is complemented by a fully equipped modern kitchen; it connects to an outdoor patio covered by a grape vine, perfect for enjoying outdoor summer dining. An original black pitch staircase leads to the first floor of the villa, where four spacious bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms are located, offering each guest a private and comfortable environment. The rooms, all skilfully furnished, are connected by a living area that, on one side, opens onto the private garden at the front of the villa via a large terrace; at the back, a further covered terrace overlooks the swimming pool and the Modican hills, with a panoramic view as far as the tip of Portopalo di Capo Passero. Next to the villa is a detached dépendance, which has three bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and two bathrooms, maintaining the same level of attention to detail and comfort as the main villa. The property is surrounded by a large Italian-style garden, characterised by century-old trees, shovels, and paths lined with orange blossoms and jasmine that are carefully tended to the smallest detail. This is completed by a spacious swimming pool, harmoniously integrated into the environment, offering an ideal outdoor space for the summer season. Two storage rooms/boxes also complete the property. This villa represents the link between historical elegance and modern comforts, ideal for those who wish to live immersed in the beauty of Sicilian tradition, with the possibility of being able to put it to income. The villa is 10 minutes from the historical centre of Modica, 20 minutes from the nearest sea and one hour from the international airport of Catania-Fontanarossa.
