Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set in the middle of a 20-hectare organic farm full of centuries-old olive trees, citrus trees, and cycads, this home is an ode to southern Sicilian living. You’ll notice immediately that this house was designed with indoor-outdoor flow in mind, with large windows and doors framing views of the lush Mediterranean garden. Once outside, take a dip in the spacious pool, relax on a sun lounger with a cocktail, or entertain around the outdoor table and sofas. When you’re ready to venture out, the quaint town of Castelvetrano is a short drive away, as are the waters of the southern Sicilian coast.
