Marzamemi, Syracuse, Sicily, Italy

This charming farmhouse stands a short distance from the seaside village of Marzamemi and dates back to the early 20th century. The exclusive newly built farmhouse was built using prestigious materials and combining the typical elements of Sicilian farmhouses, such as wooden beams, terracotta flooring, and the stone from Modica and Sabucina, with modern architectural lines. The result of these combinations are spacious and luminous interiors, as well as comfortable outdoor living areas distinguished by a cosy barbecue area and a cornerstone living room, all in perfect harmony with the enveloping environment and the surrounding landscape. The farmhouse stands on a plot of land of over 9,000 square metres, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees, majestic almond trees, pomegranate trees and prickly pears. It's built on two levels, with a total area of approximately 250 square metres. The outdoor spaces blend in with the indoor spaces, thanks to the masterful use of local stone and very large windows. When entering the property, one finds immersed in a large and bright living/relaxation area connected to the large open-plan kitchen. On the same level, we find two double bedrooms with two en-suite bathrooms, a large storeroom, a functional laundry room and a living room with a sofa bed. From here it is possible to access the upper floor which consists of a marvellous bedroom with a free-standing Jacuzzi and an en-suite bathroom. The property is ideal both as a private residence and as an tourist accommodation facility, making it possible to experience the most popular areas of Marzamemi, San Lorenzo, Vendicari, Isola delle Correnti, Noto, immersing oneself in a rare location with a more traditional style of living. The furnishings are included in the sale.

The property is located in the village of Marzamemi, a short distance from Noto, a baroque UNESCO heritage town that enjoys timeless charm and a priceless heritage of art, history and culture. This seaside area is renowned for its long beach of golden sand, washed by crystal-clear waters, among the most popular in Sicily, just a few kilometres from the world-famous Vendicari Reserve, one of the naturalistic jewels of eastern Sicily. From the property it is possible to reach the Fontanarossa airport and the beautiful city of Siracusa in just 50 minutes and 30 minutes by car, respectively, and the beautiful historical cities of Modica, Ragusa and Scicli in less than an hour.
