Description
In the heart of the picturesque countryside of Noto, stands this ancient farmhouse composed of two finely restored buildings: the majestic main villa and the characteristic dépendance. Every original architectural detail has been carefully preserved during a meticulous restoration that has kept the historical authenticity intact, in a result that evokes past eras. The meticulous attention devoted to the building's masonry and decorative elements has resulted in a philological restoration of extraordinary quality, while the masseria's privileged position affords breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, with a view that fades into the sea on the horizon, offering unforgettable emotions to anyone who visits it. The ancient pools, witnesses to a glorious past, have been transformed into elegant swimming pools, symbolizing the rebirth of this extraordinary property. Dating back to the early 19th century, as attested by the dates engraved on the ancient stone lintels, the residence has been enlarged: the main villa offers a cosy living area, a fully equipped kitchen, three bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the dépendance has a kitchen integrated in the living area, a bedroom and a bathroom. Surrounded by the enveloping scents of prickly pears, carob and olive trees that dot the vast Mediterranean maquis, the property is only a ten-minute drive from the charming historic centre of Noto, renowned for its Baroque churches and sumptuous historic palazzi. This unique setting transforms the space into a large open-air theatre, where one can breathe in the authentic and vibrant atmosphere of Sicily. Lastly, the property is located only ten minutes from the sea and one hour from the international airport of Catania Fontanarossa.
