Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Think of a holiday home in the Sicilian countryside, and visions of grandly faded baroque buildings, dramatic cliff-top villages and glorious local cuisine springs to mind. In keeping with this, this charming villa set among palms, vineyards and olive groves, with its sun-drenched white manor house walls and exposed stone floors, is everything that's right and beautiful about Sicily. With the great climate, it's no surprise the home promotes outdoor living, with a pristine pool, shaded seating areas and a stunning sun-dappled patio spot that’s perfect for alfresco dining through long balmy evenings. Designed with modern comfort and style in mind, the interior boasts polished wooden floors, sleek furnishings, colourful ornaments, plant pots and cushions, plus a bright white kitchen with high spec appliances. When you’re not relaxing in the calming living space, lying around the pool, or roaming the lush gardens, wander down to Marina Di Modica for fine golden sand beaches, or discover the quaint city of Modica – a medieval city known for its splendid palaces and rustic churches.
