This Sicilian stone farmhouse has been given a contemporary upgrade, with a private pool, hot tub, and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame sweeping Ibla countryside views. The interiors are bright and airy, with plenty of space for stretching out or gathering together around the table. Tucked at the end of a quiet dirt track, it feels wonderfully remote—but a short drive whisks you to the Baroque charm of Scicli, Modica, Ragusa Ibla, Noto, and Syracuse, or down to the dramatic coastline for blissful beach days.
