Description
EXCLUSIVE VILLA WITH ENCHANTING VIEW
Christie's International Real Estate offers for sale this exclusive villa located in a town at the foot of a Norman castle: Aci Castello, an Italian municipality in the metropolitan city of Catania overlooking the Ionian Sea. Rich in history, myths and legends, Aci Castello, with its hamlet Acitrezza, dominates the Cyclops Riviera, a place of great naturalistic value and an exuberant holiday destination. Here Giovanni Verga set his best-known work "I Malavoglia" and Homer in the Odyssey recounts the journey of Ulysses to the land of the Cyclopes.
Immersed in an atmosphere of unquestionable charm, the modern and functional residence is spread over an area of approximately 450 m2 beyond the exteriors, and is divided into two levels: the ground floor represented by a large open space on the American model, of great impact, with several living areas and one for dining; the kitchen, spacious and well separated, the bathroom and a comfortable closet.
The white walls and the succession of large windows that frame the view give breadth and lightness to the rooms, elegantly furnished in a modern style, and create a strong connection between internal and external space.
A sinuous concrete staircase, covered in lava stone and an ultra-light tempered glass parapet, leads to the upper floor where the large hallway used as a study hosts the three bedrooms and the bathroom.
The double bedroom with en suite bathroom and two-seater Corian Jacuzzi tub is enriched by a panoramic terrace with fabulous sea views.
The villa is surrounded by an exuberant 5000 m2 garden equipped with functional spaces for an outdoor area tailored to your needs.
Elegant palm trees that soar towards the sky, together with magnificent specimens of centenary olive trees, adorn the extensive area, while verdant ficus, centuries-old carob trees and imposing oaks delimit the perimeter, creating a natural barrier that gives privacy to the spectacular swimming pool with the infinity edge lava stone and surrounded by plumarias, hibiscus and agapanthus which, with their abundant blooms frame the view of the sea. In the rear part, a fragrant citrus grove welcomes the guests of the house upon entry.
The villa is the ideal home for a family and for those who love spending moments of leisure outdoors with friends, a corner of paradise that amazes and enchants with its wonderful view of the Gulf of Catania.
It is 50 km from Taormina and 12 km from Catania Fontanarossa airport.
