Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You’ll find this apartment in the heart of Ortigia, the historical centre of Syracuse. As an open-plan space, it’s perfect for a couple keen to base themselves within easy reach of the city’s main attractions. So, while the home lacks natural light, its enviable location makes up for it – you’re likely to spend most of your time strolling the cobbled, sunny streets. While out and about, check out the historic market where you can pick up some local produce, and head to the Piazza Duomo, Ortigia’s central square, for coffee as you people-watch in the Sicilian sun.
